About Our Farm

Appalachian Seeds is a sustainable Yancey Co. farm offering a wide selection of heirloom plants and seeds for sale to customers in Western NC. We have been growing and selling unusual and gourmet heirloom and open pollinated varieties since 1997. Tomatoes have been our specialty, but we now offer many unique vegetables, herbs and perennials. Please see our lists of plants that we are growing for wholesale bedding plant sales this spring.

Why we believe in Certified Naturally Grown

We grow all our wholesale bedding plants using McEnroe and Bio-Comp Organic Compost and fertilize with Fertrell products, along with Maxicrop kelp and fish emulsion. Only accepted organic pest controls are used when needed. These may include Soaps, Oils, Neem, Pyrethrum, Rotenone, Bt, and beneficial insects.
We were Certified Organic for years through Carolina Farm Stewardship Assoc., but have chosen not to pursue the national organic certification for philosophical differences of opinions regarding that process. We still use the same practices as before because it's just what we believe in. We have joined the grass roots Certified Naturally Grown organization. It goes beyond organic to sustainable practices.

Award Winning Farm

We were awarded the Outstanding Achievement award for Sustainable Agriculture in Yancey County in 2006 from NCSU Cooperative Extension.
