GARDENER'S Supply was founded in 1983 by a handful of enthusiastic Vermont gardeners. Today, we serve millions of gardeners nationwide, offering everything from seed-starting supplies, and garden furniture to flower supports and garden carts. Though our company has grown, we remain passionately committed to providing garden-tested, earth-friendly products that will help our customers have more fun and success in their gardens.

Gardener's Supply is proud to be employee-owned. We are gardeners ourselves and have earned our customers' trust by providing high-quality products, expert information, and friendly, personalized service.

We understand the products we sell because we use them in our own gardens. Regular product training sessions and a gardening certification program for our staff help us provide the best service and support in the business.

Since 1974, true leaf market's brands: mountain valley seed and handy pantry, have been providing a multitude of high quality seed to residential and professional growers alike, which include flowers, vegetables, grasses, herbs, sprouting, long-term storage, and wild flowers.

The Burrell Seed legacy began modestly.

Shortly after moving to Rocky Ford in 1896, D.V. Burrell noticed a shortage of Rocky Ford cantaloupe seed. This exceptional seed was in high demand at a time when over 100 railroad cars of cantaloupe were being shipped to St. Louis, Missouri. Determined to meet the demand, D.V. bought several cars of cantaloupe to harvest the seed. He began by hawking seed in a vacant lot, the same lot that Burrell Seed Growers occupies today. Over time, he expanded his offerings with a variety of quality fruit, vegetable and flower seeds. The Arkansas River Valley provided the perfect climate for his endeavor.

Today Burrell Seed Growers, LLC remain dedicated to preserving these heirloom varieties of open pollinated seed, as well as offering many new ones.

Much of our seed is measured the same way it has been for over one hundred years. The scoops used for packaging are a precious part of our history. In the early 1900’s, people were dependent on kitchen gardens, rather than grocery stores. Therefore large families required generous seed packets. This tradition continues today. Our antique scoops provide ample seed for your garden and a move towards self sufficiency.

Our passion for growing and maintaining the biodiversity of the region never waivers. Wandering the fields and watching them grow gives us as much pleasure as helping you grow your own crops. We are here to help all growers, large and small.

Please stop by and visit us. We are sure you will enjoy our historic building as much as we do.

Over the years offerings have expanded to include over 1300 varieties of seeds, including many heirlooms & organics, a huge assortment of tools and gardening gear, books, live plants, and soap making/crafting supplies.
