Leeks

Collection: Leeks

Start indoors or in a cold frame in late January or early February Sow seed .6 cm deep and .6cm apart. Transplant into rich soil in larger plug flats when seedlings are large enough to handle. Large transplants will produce the largest leeks. Transplant outdoors in early spring into 15 cm. deep holes, 10 cm. apart. Drop transplant into hole and water lightly. Do not backfill, the water will be enough. Only the top 5-7 cm of leaf should poke above the soil line. Hill leeks with soil once or twice throughout the growing season to exclude light and produce longer white shanks. Cool season biennial

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.
