We have partnered with Peoria Gardens to provide you with diverse starts of tomatoes, melon, and squash varieties that perform well when dry farmed in the Willamette Valley. Each flat comes with 18 plants in plastic pint-sized pots. In the menu below, you can mix and match any of the tomato, melon, and squash plant starts as long as it totals to 18.

Please Note: You are only able to add a flat to your cart once you have selected a total of 18 plants in the menu below. You can add additional unique flats of 18 plants to your cart by first clicking “Reset Configuration” at the bottom of the menu, or manually setting plants added to the previous flat back to “0”. Please feel free to contact us if you run into any issues.
