Summer Warm Season Plant Reserve
Grow a Garden That Feeds You All Summer Long
This is where your garden shifts, or begins! If you’ve done a Spring Cool Season Garden you’ll go from early greens and cool-season crops…
to abundance, color, and full harvest baskets.
Tomatoes ripening in the sun. Peppers filling out. Flowers bursting with life. Herbs ready to cut, again and again.
This isn’t just planting a garden. This is building your summer rhythm. And it all starts here.
What Makes This Season Different
Summer gardens grow big. Which means:
• More planning matters
• Plant placement matters
• Timing matters
And the right plants—grown for the right moment—make everything easier.
This year, I’m especially excited because I’ve partnered with a new grower, which means:
✨ A wider variety of tomatoes and peppers than ever before
✨ Unique selections you won’t typically find locally
✨ All still grown using organic practices
Everything is curated intentionally so your garden doesn’t just grow…It thrives.

Important Timing (Read This 👇)
This season moves quickly—and intentionally.
📅 Plant Pickup Window: May 15th through Memorial Day Weekend
This is a shorter pickup window by design—because this is the ideal time to start your Summer Warm Season garden, especially if you didn’t plant a Spring Cool Season garden.
You can absolutely continue planting through mid-June, but this window ensures you’re getting your plants in at the most optimal time for strong, early growth.
🌿Custom Planting Days: May 18th through June 14th
This is where everything comes together.
✔ I plan your layout
✔ I determine plant quantities
✔ We plant everything together
✔ You leave with a fully planted, highly productive garden
Whether you’re:
• starting your warm season garden from scratch
• or transitioning from a spring cool season garden
This timing is designed to support both.
✨ Only 5–7 spots remaining
