Urban Farmer began in 2008 with just 10 varieties of vegetable seeds. An avid gardener and magazine reader, founder Noah Herron needed something to do with a closet full of magazines. After a few hours of cutting, Noah realized he could use his old magazines to store his vegetable seeds. After a couple months and a large surplus of seeds, Noah began offering his recycled seed packets and vegetable seeds online. The combination of eco-friendly seed packets and high quality seeds quickly took off and Noah’s two favorite hobbies, gardening and magazines, became a practical business pursuit.

The Burpee Seed Company was founded in Philadelphia in 1876 by an 18 year-old with a passion for plants and animals and a mother willing to lend him $1000 dollars of “seed money” to get started in business.

Here’s one of the first seed catalogs I fell in love with:
A few years ago Gurney’s was sold to a much larger direct mail oriented company, Foster and Gallagher. A Little while after, Foster and Gallagher declared bankruptcy, unfortunately putting thousands of people out of work, and leaving tens of thousands of loyal Gurney’s customers with no place to turn. A group of lifelong mail order gardeners bought Gurney’s at a bankruptcy hearing a few months later, and, with your help, we’ll restore it to the glory days of old.

This is my brother Brent’s site. He grows some of the best hard neck and soft neck garlic north of no where! Every fall he has several hundred pounds of non-treated garlic for sale that also makes for great cold tolerant garlic seed. Shoot him an email to get on his mailing list.

This is a new concept in gardening clubs that I am creating. Basically it is a gardener’s buyers club and we solicit discounts from name brand and otherwise important garden supply sources for our membership. Membership is free and we are building our base now. Take a look and join if you like, you make opt out at any time!
