Happy (early) Spring Everyone!

We hope you are all well and rested! If you're anything like us you can’t wait to get outside and work in the soil (once it’s dry enough!), and with that we're here to help.

Once again this spring we will be growing lots of transplants for your gardens! We will be bringing plants to the Duncan Farmers Market on May 14, but if you want to guarantee a specific plant order then we recommend placing a pre-order for pick up at our farm on Saturday, May 7 (sorry no pre-orders for pick up at the farmers market).

We're known for growing strong, healthy transplants suited to our region and we focus on "hard" to start plants (unless you have a heated greenhouse of your own); plants such as tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and more. For the first time, this year we will also be growing 6-cell packs of red and green lettuces (the same beautiful lettuce we have at market all summer!). They are “cut and come again types” and are perfect for spring planting.

To see a full list of plants and to place an order go to this link and fill out the form: tatloroadfarm.com/plant-sale

If you'd rather not place an order rest assured we will have some plants at market on May 14, but varieties may be limited. We may also have other vegetable starts, such as onions, available later in May. If so, we will update you via our newsletter. But to guarantee specific plants we recommend placing an order soon at the link above.

Meanwhile if you have raised beds or your own garden is dry enough, now it the time to direct seed peas, radishes, spinach, and kale. If you don't have seed already consider ordering from the BC Eco Seed Co-op to support our local seed producers!
