Preserving Pennsylvania Dutch Heritage Through Heirloom Seeds
Looking for heirloom flower and vegetable seeds with deep historical roots? At Landis Valley Village & Farm Museum, our Heirloom Seed Project preserves and shares centuries-old plant varieties from the Pennsylvania Dutch region, connecting the past with the present through heritage gardening.
Discover the Heirloom Seed Project
For over 35 years, the Heirloom Seed Project has been dedicated to saving and cultivating open-pollinated vegetable varieties, many of which have been passed down for generations. Our team of dedicated volunteers tend the gardens, harvest heirloom seeds, and package them for sale, ensuring that these historically significant plants continue to thrive.
We also specialize in flax seed and flax straw, which played a crucial role in early Pennsylvania German agriculture and textile production.
Herb & Garden Faire – May 9 & 10, 2025
Join us for the annual Herb & Garden Faire, held on Mother’s Day weekend (May 9 & 10, 2025). This is Lancaster’s premier heirloom gardening event, featuring a wide selection of heirloom vegetables, annuals, and perennials for sale. Whether you’re a home gardener, farmer, or history enthusiast, this event offers an opportunity to buy heirloom seeds, connect with local growers, and learn more about sustainable gardening practices.
Why Choose Heirloom Seeds?
Unmatched Flavor & Beauty – Heirloom vegetables are known for their rich flavors and unique colors.
History in Your Garden – Each seed carries a legacy of generations, connecting today’s gardens with the past.
Seed-Saving for Sustainability – Unlike hybrids, heirloom plants produce seeds that grow true to their parent plant, allowing gardeners to harvest and replant year after year.
Preserve History, Grow the Future
We welcome donations of cherished heirloom vegetable seeds to continue preserving rare and culturally significant plants. By supporting the Heirloom Seed Project at Landis Valley Village & Farm Museum, you are helping to keep agricultural traditions alive and promote biodiversity.
