Comstock, Ferre & Co in Wethersfield, CT

It is no secret ... I LOVE vegetables.  So the thought of finally building a large vegetable garden at home really lights my fire. So does seed shopping. We knew we wanted non GMO seeds and heirloom varieties. We get the Baker Creed Heirloom Seed catalog (which is an amazingly fabulous seed catalog). 

This led us to Comstock, Ferre & Co in Wethersfield, CT. Little did I know, that I have driven by this building after photo shoots in town, but I never looked close enough to see that it is a seed filled treasure! 

Rows and rows of seeds fill this old building ...

When I walked in, I may have squealed with delight when I saw the amazing rustic seed bins and drawers brimming! I felt like a child in a candy shop! Each seed slot has a great explanation which helped us make our decisions.


And the packaging! I love the packaging. They have their own brand as well as Baker Creed Heirloom Seeds.  They have every vegetable you can imagine as well as fruits and flowers.


They also have an amazing room full of antiques and old farming equipment to look at and enjoy.


I highly recommend everyone take a visit here! It is not just a place to shop, it is an entire experience!  We look forward to going back in the Fall to buy our pumpkins there and let the children explore.

  1. This looks fabulous!! And I think you should frame the packaging. Seriously. Take it from the interior design obsessed! ;-)
