Northern Wildflowers introduces farmer-grown seed line to catalogue
A new line of farmer-grown fruit and vegetable seeds developed by a Sudbury company is gaining in popularity across eastern Canada.
Amy Bouillon, the company’s marketing and sales specialist, said Northern Wildflowers has received interest from garden flowers across the country.“Last year we had great growth across Ontario. This year we are seeing explosive growth across Quebec, Manitoba, and New Brunswick. Our retailers are really excited to provide a Canadian product to their customers.”
Among the 60 seed varieties in the Cutleaf collection are blueberry tomato, a blue cherry tomato; purple peacock broccoli, a purple broccoli with edible kale-like leaves; and sweet Siberian watermelon, a nine-pound fruit with apricot-coloured flesh. “As a seed farmer ourselves, we know the importance of offering our growers multi-year purchasing agreements and a fair price for crops,” said founder and CEO Jenny Fortier in the release.
