2024 Catalogue

Thanks to everyone who continues to support our efforts to bring you quality seed that you can use to begin to build your own self-replicating supply. If you haven’t already we have a posting on saving your own seeds, and a few how to videos, upon request for a minimal fee if you are interested. Search for the article and have it on hand.

Here is the new catalogue. The last page is the order form if you want to put it in the mail. Cash is king for pickup of seed orders and as usual we will be at the Seedy Saturday and Sunday events around Alberta and can bring tubers and other things for pickup then. If you order, send them to the abunadhseeds at gmail.com address as we no longer have the smileyo one.

2024 Order formDownload

If you have any issues with the download, please let me know, and enjoy browsing and choosing your food for 2024.

Remember we often sell out of various seeds once our seed sales start, so get your order in before March 1 to have the greatest selection available. We do take preorders as we mentioned for pickup at our seed sale events around the province. But remember, I often have rare seeds available which are only available at these events, so if you are looking for rare varieties, come sift through our selection at the seedy events in March! But also I am so busy during these events that I don’t know if I’ll have time to personally assist you, but I hope to see you there and at least say hi!

Welcome to the New Catalogue!

36 pages, wwwhaaaat?

So it took me a while, as we have more seeds to offer than ever before. I am still busy packaging, and will be taking a Mexican break for a couple of weeks, so everyone chill and download this reading material until I get back. Enjoy. And we are on the verge of an exciting year ahead!!

Workshop Event

Hi everyone;

It is that time of year again, and thankfully we do not have 3 feet of snow to hinder our efforts to host a seed saving hands-on workshop on the farm November 11 (after 11) until 4:30 and Saturday November 12 from 12 to 5.  I welcome you to participate as we will learn about seed saving and storage, with real life examples of all the things saved and dried this year and how to harvest them.  This course is part of the Organic Master Gardeners series I teach in Stony Plain every year and worth about $150.  So I am offering it free of charge as you will be helping me with the work and in return gaining valuable knowledge and life skills.  I would suggest you register with me anyway so I know who to expect.

Send an email to Denise – smileyo at xplornet dot ca

Make sure and spell that correctly and put seed workshop in the title.

If you only have part of the day to offer that is fine, I just need to know.  We will meet at the farm and divide into work stations and rotate around so everyone learns about the different aspects of seed harvest, cleaning, storage and so on.

Hope to see you here.  We will potluck a late lunch each day at about 1.  Bring your favorite snacks or whatever.   Thanks everyone!

Denise

Spring Seed Events 2026

Hello! As I write this the sun is burning through the clouds and the snow is rapidly disappearing. Some suggest we will be in drought conditions again come April. So let’s focus on April showers to bring May flowers, shall we?

Every year we get set to travel to various seedy Saturday and Sunday events across the province. Here we meet dedicated gardeners of all levels and these events are a special time as they have all the seed people from near and far come up and join us, to bring seeds you won’t find anywhere else directly to you, and when speakers share their knowledge of all things gardening.

It is also a time we can fill and bring orders rather than shipping them (ie. potatoes, onion sets, etc.). If you wish to have us bring your order cutoff date is a week before the event date as listed below. Mark your calendar and don’t miss it!

For all events Cash is King. Please bring enough as the cash machines usually run out. We will also take one ounce silver coins in trade. If you are planning that please note we will need notice and will honour spot price that day.

Firstly we will be speaking at this 2-day event if you are interested Feb. 28 and March 1. Sangudo RegenFest 2026. Details here

http://sangudoregen.com/

Sangudo RegenFest is a two-day, hands-on skills festival rooted in prairie traditions, regenerative living, and rural community culture. We gather neighbours, makers, farmers, homesteaders, herbalists, artists, and curious beginners to learn practical skills you can use the next day.

St. Albert Backyard Gardening Group is hosting an event March 7, 2026, 10-4.

7 Tache Street, St. Albert. Come out and see what is happening right in the neighbourhood.
