Harvest Subscription Programs
Experience the joy of harvesting fresh organic veggies from a garden in your neighborhood without all the expense and most of the labor. It’s a great way to get out in the sunshine with the butterflies and hummingbirds. Join our harvest family by enrolling in any of our Harvest Programs.
Harvest Day Subscribers
Harvest Day
For those looking for a more “hands-on” learning experience, the Harvest Day program is perfect for you. We’ll teach you the correct harvesting techniques and how to gauge ripeness. You come weekly to harvest. We do all the organic maintenance, crop and soil management. It’s the fun of having your own backyard garden without all the work and expense! Monthly subscription fee is $125.
A three month subscription (plus charge for harvesting scissors and bag) is required to begin. After your initial three month commitment, your subscription fee will be automatically charged to your credit card monthly. You may cancel any time with 30 days notice.
Home Cook Shopping Bag
Home Cook
We also offer the Home Cook program, a full service option for the serious home cook or private chef who needs a larger harvest. This option is harvested and packed by us for you to pick up weekly. This program yields about three times the produce of the Harvest Day Program. Monthly subscription fee is $375.
A three month subscription is required to begin. After your initial three month commitment, your subscription will be automatically renewed and charged to your credit card unless you notify us of a cancellation with 30 days notice prior to renewal date.
Harvest-a-Bouquet
Harvest Bouquets
Brighten your home each week with a mini bouquet that you harvest yourself from our cutting garden flower beds. Your subscription includes a tutorial on correctly harvesting and tips on arranging your own bouquet during your first visit in our garden. We’ll supply the mason jar. Monthly subscription fee is $85.
A three month subscription (plus charge for harvesting scissors) is required to begin. After your initial three month commitment, your subscription fee will be automatically charged to your credit card monthly. You may cancel any time with 30 days notice.

Nursery
Come visit us!
The only nursery on the westside specializing in edible plants
PROMOTING PLANT DIVERSITY - Not only will our nursery reflect what is growing in our production garden seasonally and what we’ve grown for our chefs, but we will also stock some heirlooms that may not be so familiar. Doing this furthers our commitment to bring back the plant diversity that has been so drastically diminished over generations by the mega-seed houses. You can count on us to have something for everyone - from the beginner to the more experienced gardener and home cook.
WE’VE GOT YOUR BACK - Never grown a particular plant before? We’ve got you covered with expert advice. Our support doesn’t end when you leave the garden with your plants. We’re here for you with advice and organic solutions when you experience challenges. Often we’ll be confronted with the same issues you are facing which is one of the benefits of shopping at a neighborhood nursery. We use our garden as a teaching tool demonstrating how to identify and solve problems by actually walking you out into our garden.
GREENHOUSE SERVICES - Many of the more unusual herbs and vegetables we carry are propagated and organically grown on-site in our greenhouse. Have seeds you’ve brought back from a trip or been gifted by someone special? Have a memory of an edible plant from your cultural heritage that you’d love to grow? We’re global seed sourcers and happy to do custom propagation for you. Just ask us!
We source seeds globally - Grow organically - Harvest locally
