Some Backyard Farmer Tips
We have limited growing space, and lots of varieties. With so many people ordering ahead things tend to sell out fast! So take a look and send in an order soon for the best selection.
If you decide later that you just want a few more, you can always contact us and we will adjust your order.
If you loved something you grew, but can't remember what the name was, email Steven he can help!
Growing in our suburban backyard we limit pick up days and times to scheduled times to allow us time to pull and package, water and care for plants, and respect family and neighbors.
