Beets

Collection: Beets

Sow in early spring when soil has warmed slightly and hard frosts are almost over. Cool weather produces the best root colour. Sow 1.5 cm deep, 10 seeds per 30 cm. For baby greens leave spacing as is and for roots thin to 5-7 cm. Eat the thinnings. Greens can be harvested throughout the season and do well when lettuce is not very productive in the heat of summer. Beets can also be sown indoors 5-6 weeks before last frost and transplanted to the garden. Be careful not to disturb the roots when transplanting. We prefer direct seeding.

About Hawthorn Farm

Hawthorn Farm began in 1996 on a kitchen table with a single-page catalogue of organic seeds and a dream.

Today, we offer several hundred organic, open-pollinated vegetable, herb, and flower seed varieties to other farmers and gardeners across Canada.

Many seed companies simply resell imported seed from around the world. On our Canadian farm, we grow, harvest, test, and package seeds using organic practices that enrich soil and protect ecosystems.

Most of our seeds are produced right here, either on our own farm or by our local network of small growers. Varieties unsuited for producing excellent seed in our climate (zone 4 and 5) are carefully sourced from trusted growers in other regions.

Every packet reflects rigorous standards and a deep respect for the land. We wouldn't have it any other way.

Seeds are more than something to sell, they’re a way to connect.

Each summer we open our farm for workshops and tours, sharing the craft of seed saving.

We support schools, nonprofits, and community groups with seeds and knowledge, believing that communities grow stronger by sharing resources.

Good food starts with exceptional seed.
