Guide to Vegetables
Pick vegetable seeds and supplies to produce the best vegetable crops for your business
Whether you're operating your own food stand or distributing vegetables to other wholesale markets, it's important to start with the right vegetable seed suppliers for your crops.
Buy vegetable seeds that give you high-quality crops and help to boost your vegetable sales. Consider the following when planting vegetables:
1. Determine the kinds of vegetables you want to grow, whether it's broccoli, greens, peppers or tomatoes. Vegetable producers are likely to have more success if they offer a wide variety of plants from different regions.
2. Figure out where to plant and grow your vegetables. Decide how much room you have to plant in your backyard, greenhouse or farm.
3. Produce the right crop yields. Proper vegetable seed distribution and planting space decreases crop damage.
4. Pick a marketing strategy. Choose whether to set up your own market or stand, or sell to vegetable distributors.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done
Find a vegetable seed business that meets your planting needs
Most vegetable seed businesses offer a wide variety of supplies and services to local and commercial vegetable growers.
I recommend:
Browse at Gurney's Seed and Nursery Co. for an assortment of bean, green, root and other vegetable seeds to plant during the spring and fall. They provide helpful information about the origin of the crops, the suggested planting locations, expected growth and germination. Johnny's Selected Seeds also offers quantities of vegetable seeds ranging from mini packages to packets containing 500,000 seeds.
Go organic with your vegetable crop to promote better health and wellness
Commercial vegetable growers nowadays are producing organic varieties as a way to go green. Organic vegetables attract more customers because not only are they healthful, but they have the added benefit of being free from chemical pesticides and fertilizers.
I recommend:
Visit The Cook's Garden to buy certified organic vegetable seeds. Consider producing customer heirloom favorites, such as Moon & Stars Watermelon, Black-Seeded Simpson Lettuce and Kuroda Carrot. Main Street Seed and Supply Co. is also a good source for organic vegetable seeds.
Get the right tools for growing vegetables-and your business
Regular watering and fertilizing adds value to growing vegetables. Find the tools that you need to meet production needs yearly.
I recommend:
W. Atlee Burpee & Co. is one of the larger vegetable seed companies, and they also offer kits and other equipment to get you started. John Deere & Company offers seeding and planting equipment suitable for large-scale vegetable farming.
Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide- Consider renting some space at a local farmer's market if you don't want to distribute your vegetable crop to larger companies, or don't have a farmstand on your own property. Display your produce in open spaces to catch the customer's eye.
