Synopsis
The comprehensive grower’s guide to seed production
The Seed Farmer is required reading for any grower who cares about being part of a truly sustainable local food system.

- Detailed profiles and practical, hands-on growing and harvesting techniques for dozens of vegetable and flower crops
- The economics of seed production, and the business case for scaling up and selling seeds into local, retail, or wholesale channels
- Farm planning, sowing schedules, projected crop yields, and other considerations.
With everything you need to help integrate seed production into your small-scale farm or market garden simply, profitably, and successfully, this unique and exciting guide proves that going to seed is easier than you think!
