Do you have seed packs based on zones and seasons? I’m new to gardening and this would make it a lot easier for me.
I live in central Florida I am interested in planting with my children During harvest seasons would like more information what is going to grow with our climates As we are moving into October what needs to be planted now and this month and making sure everything is natural
Hi Gigi! I have sent you an email reply as well.
You can definitely plant all of those in one bed. If you’re using the square foot method, just mark your squares and start planting. I would recommend planting Eggplant on the outer edge since these tend to grow much larger than the rest of the veggies you listed and plant root crops on the opposite end of your bed with greens and herbs interplanted in the bed.
Hi, I sure can use your help with designing my new garden bed. It is part of a community garden in central Florida. It’s 4×8 and has some shade from an oak tree. I’m guessing that it is only getting 6 hrs of good sun. I’m interest in beets, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, kale, eggplant, Lavender and some wild flowers. Is that too much for this size bed? It’s ready to be planted now and I would like to order within the next day or so. Any advice for this novice would be greatly appreciated.

I can't say enough great things about Fordhook Giant Swiss Chard from Mary's Heirloom Seeds. I just ordered 10 more packs. It is gigantic and prolific, it shrugs off the heat, is still gigantic and gorgeous mid-October, and to boot is disease resistant and almost impervious to bug damage. Did I mention it's also sweet, tender, and delicious! Buy it and you will be happy!!
ForgotAn item Mary's put the two orders into one and credited me the second fee. Fantastic info available.Along, with tips on getting the most out of your crop
I have a rare neurological disorder and was in a terrible flare into late Spring this year, as a result I couldn’t plant much in my garden, but I was able to get these pinkeye peas into the ground from Mary’s heirloom seeds. I was so happy I got them in, they kept producing all summer. We have limited water here, we are on a well and do not have the luxury of watering our gardens, but the peas didn’t care, they thrived in our scorching hot Arkansas summer. And of course, a huge plus is they grow above the plant so you don’t have to bend and search (which I can’t do while in a flare) for your goodies. I was able to save lots to plant next year. Thank You Mary for such high quality seeds!
