Get your garden gloves ready – our annual Seedling Sale is back and it's better than ever with coffee, live music, delicious treats and fun activities for the whole whānau!
Join us for a morning that’s all about growing and connecting – pick up lovingly grown organic seedlings and hang around to soak up the spring farm vibe.
Growing your own food isn’t about acreage – it’s about intention. So, if you think you need a big garden to grow your own food, think again. All you need is a sunny spot, a few pots and some Kelmarna Community Farm seedlings to start. We’ll have a range of seedlings perfect for your summer veggie garden – think tomatoes, herbs, leafy greens, flowers and more.
We’ll have Kokako Coffee brews, treats from Daily Bread and The Lophie Project, chill tunes, workshops, kids' activities, raffles with amazing prizes, and great company and garden chat.
At Kelmarna, food is so much more than what we eat – it’s about reconnecting.
We grow to reconnect with our food. We grow to nourish our community. We grow because it feels good to know where dinner came from. We grow because getting our hands dirty feels good when it’s for something that matters.
This is what drives us and why every seedling is a small act of care – for the soil, for each other and for the future. At the Seedling Sale, we’ll help you find the perfect seedlings for your space, whether it’s a sunny windowsill, balcony or backyard patch.
Whether you're planting your first basil or your 50th tomato, this is your day to connect, browse and hang out with fellow growers and food lovers. And, if you need a little guidance, we’ve got you covered with easy-to-follow gardening tips and curated seedling boxes to make starting simple (please pre-order).
There will be a small box, which is $25 for six varieties. These are perfect for beginner gardeners and/or those with small gardens or just a patio with some pots. These boxes will have a pot tomato like 'golden cascade’, a yellow cherry tomato, basil, garlic chives or sorrel, lettuce, salad greens and dwarf beans.
We will also have large boxes which will feature 12 varieties including tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce and salad greens, leafy greens, herbs and beans. These will be great for larger gardens and/or experienced gardeners.
Bring a box and/or a bag for your seedlings.
