Unfortunately I won’t be releasing the plant babies as a large sale this year. Work changes and life has prevented me from getting them to a point that is good for your gardens. I’ll miss seeing everyone’s faces, but hope to have all your weird, fun and favourite varieties again next year!

That said, I still have planters and some books on MyLocalism.ca (plus check out the other local sellers there, and subscription fees are waived!). I also have treats through Witchy Kitchen. And I may have some randoms I list like strawberries IF the timing works out.

Thank you for always supporting!! Life sure can be fun.

A couple more fun jalapeño varieties being added for this season. Fingers crossed they grow well!!

Don’t worry if your peppers and tomatoes look a bit small. 1) The season felt early but we’re actually right on schedule and plants probably feel like they’re smaller than they are 2) it’s been cool, everything will grow faster and bigger once it warms and the evening don’t drop as much 3) celebrate the cool for your lettuce and spinach and cold crops! They’re loving this.

Sad to say, there is now chances of thunderstorms, so the in-person shopping had to be cancelled 😿. But the plant babies are still available online through from your nice dry home and even at midnight.

UPDATE!! CANCELLED!!!

Fingers crossed for good(ish) weather! Why not come browse some more plants on Father’s Day? I have a few hundred plant babies still, plus I get to borrow the Square reader from .tbay so tap-to-pay TOTALLY accepted.

Piles of tomatoes, peppers (including Scotch Bonnet and King of the North), eggplants, squash, cucumbers, and a few lavender, borage and sunflowers. Yup, even the red sunflowers.

Please comment, share, like and all the things so META stops burying my posts 🙂. And so your friends who totally want something to do can also come by and visit.

See you tomorrow!!
