Seedlings are provided by West Star Organics. West Star Farm LLC (DBA West Star Organics) is a certified organic grower of high-quality spring starter plants. Their 40 acre property in Cottage Grove, Wisconsin has been certified since the inception of the National Organic Program in 1999. WSO will be providing plants in 3 1/2” containers. Many old favorites will be available as well as some fun new varieties. Bags of the growing mix and compost WSO uses to grow their own plants will also be available to preorder. Seedlings are USDA Certified Organic. Even the growing mix and compost are organic, helping you to be successful in growing strong, healthy food for your family.
Seedlings will be available for pick up on Saturday, May 7th from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM at the Green Garden Fair to be held in the church parking lot at 235 S. Kenilworth, Elmhurst.
