Rosemary (2026 plant starts- PREORDER)

Kick off your garden with plant starts from Chicken Little Farm. All plant starts will be timed to be ready for May Long weekend (May 16, 2026), typically in 4-inch nursery pots. Preordering will help me know how many of each variety to start, ensure that the plants you want are available, and provide a 10% discount for each plant. Pickup will be in Treherne, either on one of 2-3 set days in May or as arranged individually.

Photo and description from seed supplier:

"Rosemary has stiff stems with crisp, fir-like leaves and a strong, rich aroma. Dried leaves release more flavour if freshly crushed. Plant in full sun in the garden or a big container. This is one of the woody stemmed perennial herbs, and in the right spot, plants can become large and shrubby. If growing Rosemary seeds in containers, protect the plants from severe winter weather by taking them into a protected area like a garage or garden shed. The flowers of this oil rich herb are fragrant and very attractive to honeybees and other wild pollinators. To harvest, cut entire branches from the plant, and dry indoors, hanging upside down in some airy place free from direct sunlight. Once dry, the leaves can be pulled off and stored in sealed containers. They remain aromatic for many months."
