We begin our fourth season with gratitude for the extraordinary support you’ve shown us as we’ve grown together in our community and in your gardens. This year’s open-pollinated and heirloom seed offering, now available to browse on-line, features over 400 varieties of rare and exceptional vegetables, beautiful flowers, and wonderfully useful herbs. Most of our new varieties were either produced in our seed gardens or by our expanding network of regional growers. In response to customer requests, this year we will offer organic and untreated cover crop seeds, starting on February 1st on our website.  Check out the competitive pricing on our ever-expanding bulk seed selection, and our seasonal offerings such as Sweet Potato Slips, Asparagus Crowns, and Seed Garlic.

ABOUT SOW TRUE SEED: We are an open-pollinated/non-hybrid vegetable, herb and flower seed company specializing in heirloom, certified organic, and traditional Southern Appalachia varieties. Based in Asheville, North Carolina, we seek to promote and foster community sustainability by helping to preserve our shared botanical heritage and seed a new era of sustainable culture and ecological wisdom.


WHAT WE SELL: Sow True Seed exclusively offers open-pollinated/non-hybrid and untreated seed. When saved and replanted, open-pollinated seed reproduces true to the original plant’s characteristics. Untreated seeds means that none of our seeds are coated with fungicides or chemicals of any kind. We grow and source a broad selection of traditional and adapted varieties from quality selective breeders, regional growers, small scale producers, and independently owned wholesale-suppliers.
