Hello Everyone!
Here are all the nitty gritty details on how to order plants. Several new locations have been added as well. Ordering is now open through the Open Food Network website. Orders typically close the night before the plant sale at 6pm. https://openfoodnetwork.net/pleasant-valley-botanicals/shop#/home IMPORTANT: you must make sure to choose which location you want to pick up, BEFORE you start ordering. See in the upper right hand corner, there is a drop down that says your "order is ready for". Choose which date/location you wish to order from. Be sure to also select the corresponding shipping location. Please remember to bring a crate or box to transport your plants. The only exception is the Winsted and Thomaston locations where plants are fully preboxed. When planting your seedlings, you are encouraged to water, then water, then water some more before planting. Payment by check to Pleasant Valley Botanicals LLC is encouraged as it is less hassle than cash and less fees to the farm than credit card. Although I have tried to minimize disposable plastic use on the farm, there are currently no truly biodegradable or compostable pots that really work well. I continue to happily take back any gently used SQUARE plastic pots in the 2-6" size range. All our plants are grown with love, and our seeds are from sources that have taken the safe-seed pledge or are otherwise reliable. However, if harvesting for culinary or medicinal purposes it is still YOUR responsibility to ensure proper identification as other adventurous seeds and weed seeds CAN and DO make their way into potting soil, neighboring seedling flats and pots, and garden beds. Any information presented here or during the sale is not intended to diagnosis, prevent, cure or treat any medical condition nor make any medical claims about the safety or efficacy of herbs. There are some plants for sale that have certain precautions, such as photosensitivity and or not for internal consumption. Some of the eco59 Native CT Pollinator Plants are just too tiny to bring to a sale. I'm hoping to let them grow up a bit bigger and stronger and have some available in early June. One complimentary 6x6 cm Flat Leafed Parsley with any purchase of $75 or more (while supplies last) but you must add to your cart. When the parsley runs out, I'll find something else to offer instead :) Please email me with questions about plant sales or ordering process as I know it can be a bit clunky. If you don't get an email confirmation within 24 hours, check your spam box but otherwise your order did not go through. ALL SALES LISTED ARE BY PREORDER ONLY. As in there will be no extra seedlings to browse at the pickup location. I'm hoping to offer that in early June at the new farm location. |

One of Pleasant Valley Botanicals LLC goals is to "promote highly functioning water, mineral, energy and biological systems on the land...including to support native pollinating insects through our planting choices, habitat stewardship and educational efforts." Although the farm has always grown and sold plants that the birds, bees and pollinators adore, this year we are super excited to be offering a new selection of Connecticut native flowers from Eco 59.
What is THAT?!?! The majority of CT is Ecotype 59 which is a distinct assemblage of species in a particular ecoregion. NOFA and the Eco 59 farmer seed collective have worked with local botanists to select and grow out a selection of these plants. For more info: https://www.eco59.com/learn Pleasant Valley Botanicals LLC is super excited to be offering new this year several CT native flowers.

Each species [of herb] is alive with an inner life, a flash of energy from the Divine fiat, which is the guiding rule, the life, the purpose of that organism. Each of them represents a lesson, an awareness, a piece of ancient wisdom which we can perceive and learn from, enriching our lives and giving us meaning. The conjunction of their essence with our own brings us knowledge, life, and healing".
-Mathew Wood in The Book of Herbal Wisdom"

Can you tell me what herb to use for my condition?
As a farmer I can not diagnosis nor treat any medical condition. Any written, verbal or website statements are not intended to diagnose, prevent, treat, or cure any medical condition and have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. All information provided by this website, Farmer Melody or Pleasant Valley Botanicals is for educational purposes only. Especially if you have a significant medical condition, are taking prescription medications, or are pregnant or nursing, I recommend that you speak with your health care provider and/or trained herbalist. As with all foods or herbs, if you are trying something new for the first time start with a low dose; if you experience any unusual symptoms, stop using that herb. Use common sense. Take the time to learn about herbs from reliable sources- I have included several recommendations on my resources page.
