Want to start a garden and not sure what to plant? Here’s a collection of ten easy to grow plants that you can seed straight into the garden in the spring. Collection comes with directions for maximum success. Happy planting!
10 Packets. One variety each of: heirloom lettuce, radish, carrot, bush bean, zucchini, beet, pea, spinach, basil and nasturtium (for color, companion planting, pollinators and edible flower treat!)

Giant deer-resistant, pollinator-friendly perennial (up to 5 ft). Root is a proven medicinal around the globe for treating bronchial infections, soothing lung disorders and relieving persistent coughs. Native to central Asia, with large tobacco-like leaves and bright yellow flowers, root is also a valued dye. Rich source of inulin. Permaculture, polyculture and homestead garden favorite.

A wonderful early, frost-hardy Asian green. Lots of greens on small sweet, flavorful white stalks. It does well in our cool springs; or plant it in the fall for a really early spring green. Harvest whole or cut leaves like a "cut and come again" green.

The world’s best tasting early tomato (and Organic Garden magazine agrees!) Curated by Sasha in his home garden in the Altai Mountains, this exquisite heirloom is a gift to the west, courtesy of Bill McDorman (Rocky Mtn Seed Alliance), to whom Sasha gifted the seeds in Irkutsk, Siberia in 1989. Excellent for cool summers, and high latitudes and altitudes. Determinate (fruit sets all at once).
