Heirloom Tomato and Zucchini Plants at Waikanae Market this Saturday
Get in ahead of the Labour Weekend rush! (The weather beat us last Saturday but hoping for better things this week.)
We still have some 'Kimber' Zucchini, which are self-fertile and will set fruit even if the bees are not around to pollinate. Also a selection from our regular Zucchini varieties (13 in total this year with some interesting new additions), including Striato, Fiorentino and the very popular Costata Romanesco, all grown from imported Italian seed.
These are strong, well-established plants, ready to go in the ground now.
Altogether we grow over 60 types of mostly heirloom tomatoes in a range of sizes and colours to suit every taste and growing situation, be it open garden, greenhouse or veggie pod.
While some seed merchants promote hybrid varieties over heirloom, we have found that heirloom seed generally germinate more reliably and produce stronger, healthier seedlings. And have far superior flavour!! There is after all good reason why families have passed down their seed from generation to generation for sometimes hundreds of years!

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?
Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.
This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.
We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚
