San Diego Seed Company

San Diego Seed Company San Diego's premiere organic seed producer and seed house! Bringing sustainable seeds to local growers…San Diego's premiere urban seed house.

San Diego residents are all aware that we live in an area with an assortment of unique microclimates, consisting of coastal, inland, mountain and desert. For those of us who grow our own food, from the hobby gardener to the commercial farmer, this presents challenges when buying seeds. As your local seed source, San Diego Seed Company carefully assesses our microclimates and the current season and

offers seeds based these criteria. We tell you what seeds you should plant and when to plant them. As we watch the evolution of a local sustainable agricultural community unfold, we see the need for a seed company that supports this movement by
distributing sustainable seeds to local growers. San Diego Seed Company is your source for sustainable seeds.

It’s hard to believe our Bouquet Bar season has come to an end. 🌸✨
What a truly magical experience it’s been to share the beauty of organically grown flowers and farm-fresh produce with our growers, friends, and family.

We’ve laughed, learned, and celebrated the joy of bringing blooms from our fields to your hands. 💐 Every bouquet carried a little piece of our farm’s heart.

A heartfelt thank you to Christine & Todd Benton and Toni Taylor — your hard work and dedication made this possible. We couldn’t have done it without you!

Until next season, keep those vases ready. 🌿💖

Our Story

Bringing organic sustainable seeds to local growers…San Diego's premiere urban seed house. Nine years ago, when owner Brijette Peña came to the stark conclusion that few companies were producing regionally adapted seeds for Southern California climates, she took an oath. An oath to produce organic regionally adapted seeds that gardeners, farmers and market growers could depend on. This lofty goal has led to the amazing development of San Diego Seed Company. Through her seed company she not only produces heirloom varieties well adapted for the Southern California growers but she also facilities and promotes ethical seed production aimed at providing growers the best varieties for their success.

The idea is simple. If good seed that is adapted to our climate is produced locally, then we can add one more layer of support to our regional food systems.

In the end for Brijette it’s about supporting those that support us by growing nutritious local, food.
