Welcome to Yonder Hill Farm!
The website is now fully updated for the 2022 season! Please note: orders placed now will be filled & shipped in the order they are received starting in February. We’re sorry to be saying goodbye to our US customers in 2022. Due to increasing issues with our seeds not getting through US customs, we can no longer ship across the border.
By buying our seeds, you are not only supporting small scale sustainable seed production, you are getting high quality, spray-free, non-GMO, open-pollinated/heirloom, and sometimes rare seeds- all adapted to a homestead garden. We hope to become your trusted source for high quality garden seeds!
We are genuine Seed Producers: we are not a Seed Company that buys and resells corporate commodity seed. We’ve been growing and breeding our seeds commercially for over 10 years. We only sell seeds that we’ve produced ourselves in our fields and garden, and all of the pictures you’ll see on our website were taken from plantings of our seeds, mostly at our farm, including variety profile pictures! The small scale of our production allows for rigorous quality control, and our homesteading way of life means that we grow varieties that perform for us in the garden and in the kitchen.
What’s New in 2022!
- Check out our New Varieties for 2022.
- Lots of customers ask us which varieties are heirlooms, so we’ve created an Heirloom Varieties Category (turns out it’s almost 140 varieties!).
- We now have Asparagus Crowns & Sunchokes for pre-order, shipping in April/May.
- Willow Whips are available for spring shipping Canada wide!
- Loving our seed packet artwork? You can now purchase a “Summer Splendor” Poster.
- We’ve revamped our Seed Collections (including a new Heirloom Vegetable Collection!).
- We now have a Testimonials Page, it’s simple & easy to leave us one!
- We finally have an Instagram Handle, follow us for farm updates!
Thanks for supporting sustainable seed production in Canada!
Brazilian Snow Peas
We’ve had a mostly sunless summer with temps in low to mid-50s. We planted Dwarf Gray, and Yonder Hill’s ‘Brazilian Snow’ peas. Today, we harvested both peas with the Brazilian Snow producing a mature and robust harvest. Thank you Yonder Hill for carrying Brazilian Snow peas. Would like to buy again.
My newest ‘goto’ place for seeds
I came across the website for Yonder Hill Farm just browsing the internet in my timely search for pimento seeds. This pepper was new to me and I wanted to try growing it to add as a flavour to recipes that have recently caught my eye. I cannot speak highly enough of their willingness to answer questions about growing. I certainly appreciated the expertise imparted and knowledge that was shared. I ordered not just the… sweet pimento seeds but also decided on the Napoleon green pepper seeds. Ordering was quick and delivery was fast. The seeds did not disappoint. All that I planted germinated rather quickly and the yield is already amazing. Exceptional customer service! I highly recommend Yonder Hill Farm and plan to be a returning customer. “My newest ‘goto’ place for seeds”
Yonder Hill seeds grow delicious and satisfying harvests!
I only dabbled at gardening until two years ago when I felt the urge to get serious about it. The seeds that I have gotten from Yonder Hill have resulted in very satisfying bumper crops of delicious vegetables. Even though I’m figuring things out as I go along and making tons of mistakes, I am still being rewarded with high germination rates, robust plants and high productivity. Plus, everything tastes SOOOOO good. Yonder Hill clearly… select their varieties for flavour and only grow the very best. I especially recommend their butternut squash (sweet with a creamy texture) and their Amish Paste tomatoes (which make thick and rich tomato sauce and tomato paste). All of the seeds I’ve gotten from Yonder Hill have exceeded my expectations and have been forgiving of my inexperience. Working with Yonder Hill’s seeds has been an important part of me feeling encouraged to continue gardening, and that is a great gift. Thank you!!! (I’m attaching a picture of a small fraction of my Amish Paste Tomato harvest. “Yonder Hill seeds grow delicious and satisfying harvests!”
