All of our seeds are grown in Boulder County Colorado using organic and select biodynamic growing practices. We strive to produce the highest quality seed that is available and have adapted many common vegetable, herb, and flower varieties to the Rocky Mountain region. As a "seed-to-seed" farm, it is our goal to create and contribute to a truly local and regional food system.
We will have seed racks this Spring at: Harlequin's Gardens, Boulder, CO, Abbondanza Farm Stand in Lafayette, CO., Ellie's Eco-Home Store and Boulder Farmer’s Market. You can also place orders through e-mail, please contact: seeds@eatabbo.org
All seeds are sold in standard seed packs and are $3.00.

Did you know?
Organic farmers and experts in India organized to address the agriculture crisis facing the nation's 700 million farmers. Poor yields, degraded soils, and expensive chemical inputs arising from the cultivation of pesticide intensive crops, including genetically engineered cotton, have devastated India's rural economy. Crop failures and crushing debt led over 300 Indian farmers to commit suicide between May and July. To address this crisis, farmers from all over the country joined together August 2, 2006 to create the "Organic Vision 2020," a long term strategy to shift the country's farming focus back to ecological and traditional organic practices.Quotes
"We can no longer import our lives in the form of food, fuel and fundamentalism. Life is homegrown, always has been. So is culture. And so too are the solutions to global problems."
