The Seed Collection
A premium, curated set of 12 heirloom vegetable, herb and flower seed packets from an Australian brand, each selected for first-time homeowners who want to start a low-tox, sustainable kitchen garden. The seeds are non-GMO, vegan, cruelty-free and Fair Trade certified, and the set includes a detailed month-by-month growing guide tailored to temperate climates. Packaged in a recyclable, seed-paper box with planting instructions printed on recycled card.
"The month-by-month guide is a game-changer for new gardeners – it takes the guesswork out of when to plant each crop. The seeds themselves germinated strongly in our tests."
