May Plant Preorders Are Now Open!
Our May plant preorders are officially open, and it’s the best way to make sure you get the plants you want before the season begins. Because our growing season is short, many popular plants sell out quickly.
You can reserve your plants in two easy ways:
-
Use the preorder form to place a custom order
-
Shop online to select and purchase plants directly from our store
-
Order by phone: Send us an email with your contact info for a call back.
All preorders will be prepared and ready for May pickup, right at the start of the planting season.
Secure your plants early, plan your garden with confidence, and be ready to grow as soon as the weather allows.
A Simple Way to Start Your Garden
If you’re not sure what to plant or where everything should go, the Complete Garden Plan gives you a clear starting point. The layout organizes vegetables, herbs, and flowers into a balanced garden that’s productive and easy to manage.
You can also choose from curated seed bundles designed to grow the garden in the plan—making it simple to plant with confidence.
When to Start Seeds and Plant Outside in Zone 3
Gardening in Zone 3 isn’t hard because you lack effort—timing is the challenge.
The Zone 3 Seed Starting & Early Planting Guide is a downloadable PDF that helps you decide when to start seeds indoors, when it’s safe to plant outside, and when waiting makes sense in a short, unpredictable season.
Instead of generic planting calendars, it uses dates where they work and real garden conditions where they matter—soil temperature, night temperatures, and frost risk—so you can make clear decisions without guessing.
Designed for Zone 3 gardeners who want simple, reliable next steps.
Grow with confidence between the frosts.

ABOUT US
We’ve been growing in Zone 3 for more than 25 years, and we believe gardening is something we learn together. Every season teaches us something new, and we love connecting with other northern growers who are discovering what thrives in a short-season climate.
As growers who raise much of our own food, we believe deeply in the satisfaction that comes from knowing exactly where your harvest comes from. There’s nothing like seeing homegrown food on your plate, and we want to help more gardeners experience that pride.
We are located in Richer, Manitoba, Canada — growing, learning, and gardening between frosts.
Planting has begun
The green house is warm and running. Plants for our 2026 season are starting. Kale, cabbage and of course lettuce are a couple of inches along and waiting for peppers to sprout. We also have a very large planter where we are hoping to get some winter cucumbers ahead of the spring rush. fingers crossed.
