FAQ's

What are heirloom seeds?

Heirloom seeds are traditional, non-hybrid seeds passed down through generations. These seeds are open-pollinated, meaning they naturally produce plants true to type, preserving the traits of the parent plant.

Heirlooms are celebrated for their unique flavours, vibrant colours, diverse shapes, and higher nutritional content compared to modern hybrids. They are also non-GMO, making them ideal for sustainable gardening.

A key benefit of heirloom seeds is their ability to be saved and replanted year after year, unlike hybrid seeds. This makes them vital for ensuring the security of our global food supply. By growing and harvesting heirloom seeds, growers help preserve genetic diversity, protect agricultural heritage, and support a resilient food system for future generations.

How long will these seeds last?

Over time, the germination rate of seeds will decline. For optimal results, it's best to plant seeds within 2 years of purchase if they are stored properly.

Some varieties will last a lot longer, so you can still plant seeds that are much older, just be prepared for a lower germination rate.

How much food can these seeds grow?

While it is hard to provide a specific answer, you can grow LOADS of food from our seed kits. More than enough for a family, with plenty to share with friends!

Seeds are by far the most economical way to grow food when compared to the cost of buying seedlings.

With the cost of fresh produce continuing to soar, you can grow thousands of dollars worth of fresh food with this seed kit.

Can I save seeds from my harvest to replant next season?

Yes, since our seeds are open-pollinated, heirloom varieties, you can save seeds from your harvest to replant in future seasons, ensuring a self-sufficient and sustainable garden for generations.

What is your return policy?

As a small, family business, we pride ourselves in offering exceptional service and products so we offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

If you have any issues whatsoever with our products or services, please contact us and we'll do whatever we can to rectify them.

Quality Heirloom Seeds

  • Premium Quality Seeds & Great Service: Our customer reviews speak for themselves.
  • Value for Money: If you've got the time (and patience), we encourage you to put together our seed kits on competitor sites to compare the price. Plus, no one does instructions as well as we do!
  • Storing Seeds Long-term: Each of our kits are sealed and include moisture absorbers as well as storage instructions. To minimise loss in quality, store kits sealed in a dark, dry, cool location. A cupboard is normally sufficient short-term (1 – 2 years). For longer periods (2 – 5+ years), we recommend you store our kits in your fridge crisper.
