A Customer writes: "I wanted to thank you for your great service and excellent quality seeds. I was given your site info by someone on a bird web site. I was very excited to see you had chickweed to purchase as this is usually what most home owners are trying to get rid of. I am still waiting for the seeds to sprout but the others that I purchased are doing great. Thanks again,"

Synthetic pesticides are more of a threat to man than the insects it would seem. As each generation of insects become more immune the pesticide, stronger and more potent insecticides are released. In the meantime we humans are absorbing these chemicals as they permeate our homes, gardens and lawns and in turn we are depleting the quality of our health and the health of our pets. We hope that most American gardeners will help reverse this trend by using natural pest deterrents that have been used successfully for generations. We offer the following seeds to aid them in their efforts.
