Everwilde Farms, Inc.

Fantastic! Quick to ship in Cov19. Saved my entire month! You order and they ship, within 2 weeks the items were here. Very professional.

Been doing business with Everwilde Farms over 10 years and continue doing business with them for quality seeds, quality packaging and low cost. We use these seeds for schools and give free seeds to Gardner’s at Health Lectures. Hope this helps those of you looking for quality vegetable, herb and native flower seeds.

I did have a quite good germination rate with this company, some more difficult plants germinated well. And I really like that they have a full germination instruction on their packets and I don't have to run back to the computer to find out. With most seeds there packets are of generous size. They also test the germination rate and state that on the packet. What do you want more?

Posted on March 27, 2017, updated January 20, 2018 I ordered some seed and was impressed with the pricing and the speed. The packaging is fancy as well. The reason I'm giving this a neutral is that I don't see anything on their website that says they're not using neonicotinoid pesticides. Those are linked to bee illnesses. People promoting "neonics" often use fallacious arguments, like about whether or not the neonics kill the bees outright. That's hardly the only issue. Weakened immune systems. Flight confusion. Etc. I am not at all looking forward to spending the money, time, and effort to make a meadow if it's going to harml the insects I'm making the meadow for! Please, all wildflower companies, put out a statement that says no neonics, one that we can trust. It will make life for the conscientious consumer much easier.

I have been purchasing from Everwilde Farms for several years now and have always been impressed with the germination, health and vigor of their seeds. Their seed is always fresh and is clearly labeled when it was harvested. This year I placed an order for $68.60 and they shipped it Priority Mail for no additional charge, free shipping. I also like their custom made, resealable, foil lined seed packets. Quality all the way around.

First time customer in winter 2016. Purchased seeds of several species. Order shipped quickly. Germination percent and seedling vigor of Amsonia illustris, Asclepias verticillata and viridis, Echinacea pallida and paradoxa and Zizia aurea have been great. Still waiting on germination of Liatrus aspera and Rudbeckia triloba Red Sport. (They note on their website these may take longer to germinate.) Germination of Zizia aptera was just so-so. They provide great information on recommended stratification. Will purchase from them again.

Posted on January 13, 2016, updated January 13, 2016 I placed an order at the start of January and had it in less than a week. I like how things are organized on their website, it made ordering really easy. The seeds came in resealable foil packets with growing information. They are generous in their seed amounts. I did contact customer service because I thought I received a wrong sized item, but it was my error. The fastest way to contact them is by phone for customer service. E-mail and FB did not result in a response. Overall great experience.

Placed an order on January 2nd(a Saturday) and received on January 8th(a Friday). Ordered 11 different seeds packs. Got everything exactly as ordered in excellent shape. I found the information included very informative and the seed packs are a wealth of information also. Very pleased.

Posted on December 7, 2011, updated January 5, 2016 I ordered from 3 companies this year. Everwilde, Swallowtail and Center of the Webb. I love Everwildes site best. Their shipping speed was awesome! The amount of seeds were plenty, especially for the price. Shipping was fair. Can't wait to see the germination rates. I will follow up in the spring. Thanks Everwilde!

Awesome seeds! I've had excellent germination with the seeds that I purchased, I planted them over the winter in my winter sowing containers and they have all sprouted this week. Seeds arrived quickly, I will be ordering again. I also really like the 'gold' packaging, I am clumsy and often drop seeds while working with them, and the packaging made it a lot easier to keep the seeds contained.

I've ordered seeds from Everwilde a couple of times with no problem. The last time, I ordered some pea seeds, which came in their super tough foil / plastic / zip-lock "Gold Vault" seed packet. On the cold, wet, muddy day I was out planting a small row of peas, I closed the remainder of the packet, shoved it in my pocket, and forgot about it. After coming in the house covered in mud, I threw the clothes in the (front loading) washing machine, completely forgetting the packet of peas. After the wash, the sticker on the outside of the packet was gone, but the seed inside was completely dry! A rare thing to have a product live up to the hype. So far, they seem to be a good place for vegetable and culinary herb seeds.

First order went accoringly, second was horrible. I paid a few extra dollars for USPS Priority Mail, they sent it via First Class. What's the point of giving us options if you're not going to send it via the shipping speed we paid for. After I noticed the mix up I emailed them and received a response they were sorry about the error and will refund the difference. It has been over 2 weeks and I have not seen anything, I did email them requesting the status of the refund but was ignored. What worries me is if they do this often they are making money off others who don't notice this ''error''.

Reviews on this company are so tiresomely repetitive, but what can I do--the order came as specified, no problems, the packaging is uniquely wonderful...not only does the resealable gold foil quite probably extend seed life, it's really pretty. There is something inspiring in the logo...And the information stickers are concise and useful. Can't talk about germination yet. Prices were reasonable.

Posted on January 9, 2014, updated January 8, 2015 Everwilde Farms is a great company! I have purchased from them several times and I always get great service and quality seeds. My last order was made at the first of November and they got lost in the mail. Everywilde took care of the tracking of the lost seeds and the replacements, I had my new seeds in less than a week. I love the new Gold Vault seed packets, you can take a few out and reseal them. It's supposed to keep them fresh three times longer than plastic or paper. (I'll take their word for it.) Thank you very much Everwilde, great service, great tracking, and I love that you take paypal. :)

I just received my first seed packet from your company. It arrived very promptly and the seeds are well packaged. I appreciate the clear, concise planting information.. I like your resealable Gold Vault Packet. After viewing your web site and finding that your seeds are not genetically modified and that you have your Organic rating, I feel that I can buy with confidence.

I just ordered a few packets from them and found the shipping charges quite reasonable. They have some items I was looking for in hope of attracting a few of our needy butterflies. They shipped quite quickly and seem like a great company for future orders. Their seed packets are very beautiful which is nice.

This is a good company to buy seeds from. I never had a problem; the transaction always runs its course smoothly. The seeds are wonderful and the prices very acceptable. I have bookmarked their site in my favorites.

Posted on May 17, 2013, updated January 29, 2014 Posted on June 30, 2012, updated May 17, 2013 Posted on February 24, 2012, updated June 30, 2012 I am also a happy customer of Everwilde. The seeds I ordered were shipped next day and were received in good time and good condition with an information sheet about growing wildflowers. In terms of ordering seeds, Everwilde is a very smooth ride with a quick and easy and informational website. I always appreciate an automated note when orders are shipped so I will have an idea of when to expect delivery and this is not available at Everwilde. Still, I cannot fault them for this and will enjoy being a repeat customer.

I ordered seeds from Everwilde earlier this month. They were shipped really quick and everything I planted germinated. I loved the packets too. I would definitely buy from again.

I planned out my order before realizing how high the shipping charges would be. I was far enough along I went with it anyway, but the shipping charges are so high (nearly 30% of my subtotal on an order with 12 items) I'll probably try to avoid Everwilde in the future. I don't know if the shipping charges were so high last year -- this is my second year ordering from them -- or if I just didn't pay attention to the shipping charges last year. Extraordinarily high shipping charges are my only complaint.

Taking a moment to thank three companies that helped me start my small perennial plant biz here in NC and Everwilde is way up there. The selection, pricing, and customer service are incredible as is the quality of the seeds they provide. Thanks so much, already ordered for 2014, smaller than years before as I've had to move to larger wholesale seed companies, but Everwilde, Prairie Moon, and Diane Seeds will always have a special place in my heart..it's where this all started. Thank you so much!

The website was easy to use and full of good information. Seeds shipped quickly and came in attractive packaging. I would definitely order from Everwilde Farms again!

Found my favorite supplier of seeds! For $2.50 I get hundreds of seeds -- sometimes thousands! The selection is great and website very easy to navigate. Delivery was fast. Great company!

I ordered native seeds from Everwilde Farms last fall, wintersowed them, and planted the seedlings this spring and summer. It was my first year with native seeds, and I am happy with the results. Of the four native seed companies from which I ordered, Everwilde Farms had the best seed packaging. The information on the packets makes wintersowing in 150 milk jugs much easier!

I recently for the first time placed an order with EVERWILDE FARMS for seeds because of the high rating in DAVES GARDEN WATCHDOG section.ALL my seeds arrived in order without problems.I am now testing germination of the seeds in trays below lights and everything seems to be ok so far. They were also quick to respond to my emails and answer my questions. SO for me it is a high positive rating. DANIEL GOODE

I placed two orders for 28 varieties of seed this year, both annual and perennial and have had excellent germination from all of them. Packets are generously filled and prices are very good. If you like wildflowers, especially californian annuals, this is the place to find them.

I can't get over the quality of service and great value for money provided by Steve. Not to mention the personal attention to detail. I've ordered several million seeds from them over the last six months with only one delay on Zinnia's which Steve explained was beyond his control and offered a refund or to ship the seeds when they became available. They are now my number one choice for seeds. I also find the Web site a great source of information and photos when producing marketing material.

I found a lot of my favorite seeds here and ordered them. I hope the aster that I picked will be the mystery one I grew in Alabama. It was so pretty. I especially love perennial sunflowers and they had several to choose from. I look forward to growing these when the time is right in 2012. I found them on the Garden Watchdog where I always research companies before placing an order. I had a question about my order and Steve answered promptly.

My transaction was simple: I ordered a single packet (dwarf red coneflower); received it promptly neatly packaged , fully labelled, and included thorough instructions. EVERWILDE treated my small order with the same care that others have reported for more complex and larger orders. Prices and seed quantity were more than reasonable. Nice touch.

I ordered from this company for the first time last fall. At that time, I could only give my experience as to their excellent selection, pricing and shipping--all of which were above par. Now that spring is here and I have planted my native wildflower seeds, I can attest to to the fact that the seed germinates at a rate much higher than is listed on the package. To begin with, you get a lot of seeds for the price you pay, and then the seeds exceed all expectations as to quality. That's a powerful combination. Customer service is excellent at this company and they have the best shipping costs in the business. I appreciate that I only paid the cost to ship my product, and didn't have to pay an exorbitant price to have a bunch of advertising mailed to me with my product. Their packaging is excellent, as well. I can't say enough good about this company.

This company has a great variety of seeds to choose from. They had my items to me within a week of ordering. Prompt shipping an a great customer service will have me ordering from this company again in the near future! They give you a great quantity of seed for a great price.

Seeds were shipped timely. Package contained generalized planting instructions, and each each seed packet contained specific planting instructions.

I just received seeds for three types of grass from Everwilde Farms; Zizania aquatica, Uniola latifolia and Glyceria striata. The seeds arrived quickly from the time I ordered. These seeds do require cold stratification, but thankfully they did come with instructions on how to do this. This is my first order with this company. I like them very much so far.

Very fast and reliable delivery to Norway! Seedportions available in several sizes, and the standard portions are larger than any other seedcompany encountered, giving them an advantage! I have been buying several times from this company, and will do it again!

I have nothing but the BEST to say about this company. Fair price, fantastic seeds, with GREAT results and delivered in a rapid fashion. What more can you ask for?

Nothing but good things to say about Everwilde. Excellent selection of wildflowers, great germination information, very reasonably priced. Wonderful customer service, ordered through their website on Sunday night and the seeds were in my mailbox Tuesday.

Seeds ordered January 26th, all received January 30th. Will report back in late spring on germination. This has been a good year for me, seeds ordered from 10 companies and everything now received.

I found this company through the Watchdog and I must say I am quite pleased with the order I just received. Not only was the order filled promptly and completely, the packaging is outstanding. Full info on the back in type size easy enough to read even with bi-focals! The actual photos of the plants on the front are very colorful and easy to locate in a pile of seed packs. I guess what I like the best about the company is their selection.....simply outstanding selection of common and hard to find wildflowers. I have been looking since last year for Wild Indigo (Baptisia Tincotoria.) Although a lot of catalogs say they hve Wild Indigo, it is usually the blue flowering kind, not the yellow flowering kind which I was looking for to use as a natural plant based dye. Clear, easy to use web site along with the above positives are going to make me a repeat customer!

Before I placed an order with Everwilde Farms I emailed them a question. I received a very prompt, professional and clear reply which I was quite happy with. Placed an order and received my seeds within a week. All went very smoothly. The native plant selection Everwilde Farms carries is great, they had several things which I had been looking for. Along with their quality customer service and quick order turn around I would buy from them again. My seed order was placed in December and they are for winter sowing, I will report back on how germination goes this spring. I expect that it will be fine as the company is tops in all other respects.

I have now placed multiple orders from Everwilde through both their website and eBay store. I am extremely pleased with their service and selection, and will be purchasing more seeds from them in the future!

Ordered my bluebonnet seed and it got here only a few days later, great customer service, great pricing, and the web site it great too. Will be buying from them again.

This company is one of my favorites for wildflower seeds. Their prices are great and the seed is some of the best quality I have received. Plus they are in my home-state of Wisconsin. The descriptions and images are most helpful when buying new seeds. And I've found you can even order through Amazon.com. I am very happy with my recent order and I will certainly buy from them again.

The big bluestem, compass plant, columbine, side oats grama and other seeds arrived promptly. Good service, good selection and good prices.

Recently ordered seeds from Everwilde Farms, they arrived in less then a week. Love their selections and prices!

I ordered several packs of seeds and was very happy with them. They have a great selection of natives.

One of the best sites for native seeds! Ordered 23 packs of seeds and all came : ). I have never had the pleasure of this occuring, something is always out of stock at the other companies I have ordered from! This company definitly belongs in the top 30 here!!! Great pictures, accurate descriptions and fantastic instructions. I love the maps of a plants native range, I have bought seeds at other places that state zone 7 only to have them die because they dont grow in my state!! They offer a large selection and their prices are great!

I have ordered many seeds over the years from many different companies and this is one of the best--if not the best! The website is wonderful with pictures, descriptions, charts, etc. The prices are very reasonable and you can order different amounts of seeds and mixes. It is so great to deal with someone who really knows his seeds and Steve is also a very honest person to deal with.

I'm ordering for the second time after just discovering Everwilde one month ago. With this company, I am able to one stop shop for individual packages of native wildflowers for my butterfly meadow. They offer a variety of quantities per package for each seed species, and even the smallest package has an extremely generous amount of seeds in them. The website offers good information about the seeds they offer so that I can make wise selections. I have a two page list of native wildflowers I want to sow and this company can supply the majority that's on my list.

So far, everything has been a positive experience for me. :-) The first thing that struck me about Everwilde website was the plant charts. I LOVE this! My favorite charts are height, soil requirements, light requirements and bloom time. Not only can I pick which chart I want, there are several!, but that each chart gives you all the info that is contained in all the other charts, just mixed within. (My one wish is that the information to interpret the charts be moved higher on the page, possibly above the charts themselves, only because when looking at the chart, I had no guide to go by and had to hunt for it.) So, there I was exploring all the pages, looking through seed mixes, then the different seeds. It's contagious!! I went for 2 kinds of seeds, I wound up ordering 17 kinds. When they arrived, which didn't take long, Steve Sykora had written on the receipt letting me know that if I was fall planting that I didn't need to to stratify my seeds, now this was listed on the website, but he wanted to make sure, for all those that don't read the little print. ;-) Each seed packet has a label on it with all sorts of info, including when they were packaged. I loved that I could determine how many seeds I wanted - they give different options of amounts - yet still be super reasonable in price. Okay, I'll be honest - cheap! Go to the store and buy a packet of seeds, you get probably 10-15 seeds, depending on seed, and for what.......$1.50- 4.00 per packet. With Everwilde, just some examples of my order: Ratibida columnifera (Long-Headed Coneflower): 1000 seeds - $2.50 Castilleja coccinea (Indian Paintbrush): 1000 seeds - $2.50 Aquilegia canadensis (Wild Columbine): 290 seeds - $2.50 The list goes on.. sure, there are some that I get less seeds, yet cost same or more, but I look at what kind they are. To me, Wild Columbine is worth it, it is a native for Florida - so yup, I'm willing to pay for it. Just my $.02 cents, but Everwilde is one place where I will be heading to again... and again. :-) -Christine

Difficult to sum up my very positive personal experiences with this company in such a tiny space. I called them looking for seed ideas. It had been my intent to pass out seed packs as a gift when I went to volunteer to work with a decent sized group of people. I figured I needed at least 50 packs but decided to go for 100 packs just in case. I'm sort of picky with seeds and plants, I admit it. He talked to me on the phone and I shared with him my ideas for a give-away seed mix. He then offered his ideas for a seed mix based on my comments and followed up with an e-mail outlining what he thought would work best. Because of his thoughtful comments, we were able to come up with a mix that worked that was also affordable. One stop shopping here. They can obviously cater to the individual as well as to a large group and he kept the prices low for me by offering suggestions of seed I could substitute to keep the pricing down to that which was within my budget. I'm very pleased. The seed was fresh and was received shortly after I ordered it. When I received my order, there were handwritten notes on how to split out the seed into individual give-away packs as well as other helpful comments. He even included a sample pack representative of the quantity that I needed to place into each seed pack so that I wouldn't cut myself short. As it turned out, I ended up with 10 extra packs. How very nice. More to share at future activities.
