How Is Shipping Calculated

Shipping costs are calculated at checkout and are based on your location and the type/amount of products ordered. Feel free to use the shopping cart to test shipping costs and go back before submitting the order to make adjustments if need be. Seed orders over $100 ship free!

Shipping Season

Seeds ship year round. A fresh supply of seeds are harvested in the fall depending on the species. We ship them throughout the winter, into the growing season.

Plants are ready to be shipped as soon as they're properly rooted. This can vary from weeks to a couple of seasons. Plants usually start to ship in May, depending on the weather. The shipping of plants ends around September.

You can reserve plants online while between seasons, we'll set them aside and notify you when they're ready. We will reserve them, but to avoid making any false promises, we can't guarantee numbers and availability until they actually grow and are ready to ship.

How Do You Ship Your Plants and Seeds

Seeds are held in individual seed envelopes in a ziplock bag, or just in a ziplock bag for larger orders. They're then shipped in boxes or envelopes. Plants are individually wrapped in shrink-wrap and wrapped together in bundles. The bundles are then wrapped with cardstock to prevent shifting then placed in boxes for shipping. Seeds may ship together with plants in combination.

How Long Does Shipping Take

Timming can vary depending on the weather and your location, but plants and seeds usually arrive within 2 to 5 business days. On checkout, you'll be able to see an estimated time of arrival for your items.

Where do you Ship To

We only ship within BC or Alberta in Canada at the moment. We do this to make sure plants arrive in a timely manner and to reduce shipping costs for customers.

Is On-Site Pick Up Possible

We are primarily an online nursery, but we welcome pickup by appointment for orders of at least $50.
