VIDEO: Quitting Your Job to Start a Seed Farm: 3 Year Update


Check out Brijette’s seeds here: https://sandiegoseedcompany.com/ My friend Brijette runs San Diego Seed Company, theonly organic-certified urban seed company in the USA. I toured her farm a few years back and loved it, so wanted to give you the three-year update on her progress at the farm. You’ll learn about seed production, seed starting, growing tips, trellising, soil improvement, and some old classic seed cleaning machines she uses to grow and process high-quality seeds for your garden.

  1. Has Brijette trialed soil blocks for her seed starting? I know there are a billion recipes for soil blocking mix, but wouldn't that be a good alternative to plastic?

  2. We love bottom watering on our farm and use XL metal baking trays to water. Ours are 18" x 26", you can fit a ton of seedings, the trays are super strong and can take the weight, and easy to move around as you need. We also use them in our Bonsai garden, along with a layer of small pebbles, to retain ambient moisture. The trays are also awesome if you are growing moss.
