Celery Seeds – Living Web Farms Ventura

Description

Apium graveolens

If you’re looking for a no-fuss, easy-to-grow celery, this one is for you! Around ten years ago, farmer Patryk Battle of Living Web Farms in Mills River, NC planted Ventura celery in one of his greenhouses and just… let it do its thing. This seed is the offspring of a naturalized population of self-reseeding celery from that original planting. While it grows somewhat smaller than Ventura, it is every bit as delicious and even more hardy and vigorous than its parent variety. Living Web Farms Ventura celery is unusually tolerant of dry conditions and cold weather, though its quality will decline in extreme hot or cold temperatures, as with most celeries. It performs best when planted in late summer for harvest as a fall crop.

0.1 gram packet contains a minimum of 170 seeds.

SMALL FARM GROWN by Living Web Farms, Mills River, NC, a member of the Appalachian Seed Growers Collective. A portion of proceeds from each packet benefits the Collective’s efforts to increase seed production capacity in Southern Appalachia and breed varieties that thrive in our region.
