Seattle Seed Co. Starter Garden

These varieties are quite versatile. While tomatoes and beans thrive in larger pots or raised beds, the lettuce and carrots can easily be grown in smaller containers or window boxes, making this kit adaptable for patios and balconies.

The lettuce mix typically features a blend of loose-leaf varieties chosen for their quick growth and ability to be harvested as 'cut-and-come-again' greens, which allows you to harvest leaves repeatedly throughout the season.

You don't need specialized gear, but you will need basic supplies like potting soil, containers or garden space, and a consistent water source. The kit provides the seeds and guidance, but you'll need to supply the growing medium and sunlight.

The collection focuses on reliable, easy-to-grow varieties that are verified non-GMO. While they are selected for their success rate for beginners, they are standard vegetable varieties rather than specifically marketed as heirloom or hybrid.

The recipe cards are designed to help you plan your harvest. By knowing how you intend to use the vegetables—whether in salads, stir-fries, or fresh snacks—you can better manage your planting schedule and understand the yield you can expect.
