Every year, we receive seed donations from large seed companies and other groups dedicated to food sovereignty, like the Cooperative Gardens Commission. The seeds we receive are used to plant our Hawthorne Avenue Farm, hydroponics greenhouse, Outdoor Learning Center, and various school garden locations. We also share seeds with gardeners in our Plot-It Fresh program and other Newark-based community and home gardeners.
Follow the link below and order seeds for your home garden! All requests will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis. We ask that you do not request more than you can reasonably expect to plant and grow. Most seeds will come in repacked envelopes containing up to 50 seeds. Large seeds (squash, cucumber, etc.) may only come with a few seeds per envelope. You may select up to 10 items.
Orders made by Wednesday will be mailed out the following week.
Newark residents will have seeds mailed to them free of charge,
non-Newark residents subject to a nominal mailing fee.
