Everything you ever need for a garden and then some
I had heard about Berlin Seeds from Cody and Michelle watching More Than Farmers. I'm so grateful they told us all about the company. I bought for the first time in early this February and have had such success with my veggie plants. More than I ever have in my 5 years of gardening. I will continue to buy from y'all.
