A Packet of Seeds Donated with Every Order Online
For every online purchase made, we donates one packet of seeds to a garden community, organization, or club around the world.
Gardening isnβt just about growing plantsβitβs about fostering connections, building resilience, and empowering communities. Thanks to the support of customers like you, for every purchase you make, we donate a packet of seeds to gardens and communities in over 40 regions worldwide.

Our goal is simple: to spread growth and help as many communities as possible. Together, weβre building a greener, more sustainable future, one seed at a time. Weβd love for you to discover the incredible communities and gardens we work with, thriving on their own and doing amazing things worldwide.
The Ita Wegman Associationβs Glenora Farm, located in the Cowichan Valley, supports adults with complex developmental disabilities through therapeutic programs in farming, arts, and community living. On this organic-transitioning farm, companions work alongside staff and volunteers in workshops that foster skills, self-worth, and empowerment. Glenora Farm also gives back by redistributing over 2,000 lbs of surplus produce annually to local organizations like the Cowichan Valley Basket Society and Nourish Cowichan, strengthening food security and building a sense of community.
The Green & Gold Community Garden, located on the University of Albertaβs south campus, has long benefited from West Coast Seedsβ donations. Run entirely by volunteers, this organic garden grows over 60 varieties of produce and supports the Tubahumurize Association in Rwanda, raising over $413,000 for marginalized women since 2009.
The garden also serves as a vibrant community space, hosting markets, offering educational tours, and providing a welcoming environment for volunteers of all ages, including newcomers to Canada. Its impact reaches far beyond gardening, fostering connection, learning, and support for global causes.
Since 2007, Shelters International Disaster Response has partnered with us on the "Seeds of Love" project to support Haitian farmers. By diversifying crops and creating school and community gardens, weβve empowered local farmers to grow their own food, reducing the need for imports. Through companion planting, organic pest control, and hands-on education, Haitians now cultivate a wider variety of crops, making a lasting impact on their livelihoods.
Weβve loved being a part of Haitiβs journey toward a sustainable future, helping communities thrive from seed to harvest.
