Upstarts Organic Seedlings produces and distributes a wide selection of premium vegetable and herb seedlings. Heirloom or hybrid varieties of seed are carefully selected for flavor and quality. Seed selection is also based upon plant vigor, disease resistance, and regional growing conditions. We use untreated seed with our custom soil blend to grow our seedlings. Our seedlings are grown without the use of chemical fertilizers or pesticides. We have been certified organic with California Certified Organic Farmers (C.C.O.F.) since 1991.
Upstarts offers an outstanding variety of vegetable and herb starts. We watch for new trends in both the nursery and culinary industries and enjoy sourcing unusual and hard-to-find plant varieties.

The lack of meaningful controls and the FDA fast-tracking of GMO approvals deeply concerns us. When you select an Upstarts plant, you can be assured that it is a product of Mother Nature, not a laboratory test tube with patents attached to it.
Upstarts was founded on the principle of producing clean, organically grown starts, thus eliminating the use of toxic fertilizers and pesticides that are normally used in conventional plant production and harmful to the environment.
