A message from our WFCF's Farm Manager, Erinn Roberts:

We take pride in the quality and selection of our seedlings; as hectic as the day is, the seedling sales are a highlight of my Spring. I love seeing returning gardeners and hearing their happy retellings of last year’s successful garden full of healthy, productive and vibrant plants from the farm. I will miss that connection this year, just as we’re all missing so many connections we had taken for granted up to a few weeks ago. But I am grateful to participate in offering some semblance of agency during this time, via the planting of a nourishing and grounding garden, be it a few pots on your patio, a community garden plot or a full-blown homestead. Food is medicine, but so is gardening. Here is to a great season for us all! Thank you for supporting WFCF and growing a garden!

WFCF is a non-profit organization running a high intensity mixed vegetable farm as well as educational and food access programming just outside of Boston. The farm grows mixed vegetables using organic methods on fifteen acres of land. Our neighboring community gardeners & community members have been purchasing WFCF-grown seedlings since 2007, and we are thrilled to see returning smiling faces year after year. With the exception of a very few herb varieties, all seedlings are started from seed and grown on in our own greenhouses using Vermont Compost potting soil. All seedlings are grown using organic methods, including the certified organic herb plugs that we purchase and grow on. Varieties have been selected for their adaptation to our area, and many are ones that we grow on the farm year after year.
