• Ships from the US

    Every item comes from an independent American supplier and ships direct. No overseas warehouses, no surprise customs charges.

  • 30 days to return

    No restocking fees, ever. If something arrives damaged or wrong, we pay the return shipping.

  • Chosen, not scraped

    We don't make what we sell — we pick it. The maker's name is on every product page, because they earned it.

  • From a real homestead

    Raised beds, cattle panel tunnels, a spiral herb garden and more chickens than planned. We grow what we sell the tools for.

What we're doing in October

Plant garlic now. In Zone 6a the window runs through about mid-November — cloves in the ground before the hard freeze, mulched, and forgotten until spring.

Start microgreens on the windowsill. Indoor growing season begins exactly when the garden ends. Ten days from seed to harvest, in a tray on the counter.

Last call for cover crops. Vetch, clover and peas need to be sown now to establish before frost. After this it waits until August.

Grow, Gather, Make Yourself at Home

We're a family of six in Fowlerville, Michigan, growing a ridiculous amount of food on a small piece of land. This shop is the tools, seeds and cookware we wish we'd found sooner — chosen one at a time from independent American makers, never manufactured by us.
