"We don't use plastic pots, we make soil pots out of compressed organic potting soil..." - Farmer Sue

Plastic Pots, No Thanks!
We minimize the amount of contact our soil and germinating plants have to plastic pots and trays which can contain endocrine disrupting chemicals such as BPA and Phthalates. We do this by making our own soil pots with compressed Organic potting soil  Our soil pots act as both a container and a growing medium for the seeds, we don't have to use seed trays that surround the soil with plastic. Once the plants have grown sufficiently we transfer them to a non-plastic, biodegradable pot that you can take home and plant straight in the ground. By doing this you decrease the possibility of damage to the roots when you transplant. Learn more about the benefits of soil pots.
