Jollity Farm: Tomato Starts!

The last traces of snow are almost gone from Mt. Sicker, so it's time to move the tomatoes outside! The majority of our tomato seeds are certified organic, and/or rare and heirloom varieties. All starts are potted up using certified organic soil.

If you have pre-ordered, then your tomato starts will be aside for pick up this Saturday 10-1. Some varieties are further ahead than others so they will keep coming over the next 2 weeks. Sweet & hot pepper starts are not ready yet, but they will be coming soon.

If you would like to reserve from the list below we will accept, first come, first serve. Some varieties are limited so we will confirm your orders as they come in and as availability continues. We have put sizes & descriptions next to each.
