At BAAG we prioritise edible seedlings grown using Certified Organic or Low Environmental Impact Practices.
Everyone who knows us is aware of our commitment to sustainability and to growing your own produce. We encourage you to grow vegies for the health benefits and sheer enjoyment of working in your garden, the fun of swapping excess produce, the satisfaction of feeding yourself, family and friends from your own labours. At BAAG, we prioritise seedlings grown to organic principles or certified low environmental impact practices as another way we can promote sustainability. However, it is not just these principles that are driving this move, it is also our belief that the product is better suited to the home gardener.
Using well balanced natural fertilisers whilst eliminating synthetic pesticides, growth regulators and excessive nitrogen produces a resilient seedling. Naturally hardier with both top and root growth in balance, these seedlings are better adapted to life in your garden.
Many of the seedlings are heritage or heirloom varieties with all the flavours and aromas fruit and vegies should have, as well as being able to save the seed and grow them next year.
So to sum it up, our move to prioritise vegie seedlings grown to organic principles or certified low environmental impact practices gives you seedlings better suited to your garden, better for the environment and we hope will encourage you to give it a go and try something new.
On the rare occasion that we can’t get our full range of vegie seedlings, we do backfill with conventionally grown seedlings. These are identified on our bench so you can make the choice of your preferred option. And don’t forget, we also have a huge range of seeds available, including many hard-to-get varieties.
