Received my order in only 5 days this year and last. Good germination. And the shipping was only $3.

Outstanding company! Very professional and I received my order in three days. I order from Baker Creek each year and I'm always satisfied with their seed.

In fact, I plan on attending their festival this weekend.

I first browsed the Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds catalog, listed out the items I wanted, and then went online to order. The products were easy to find, were all available, and the process was simple. My seeds showed up within 3 days exactly as I expected. The experience was all good. It was my first order, but I will be back.

First time to order from this company, had not heard of it before but wanted to try it out since it had some unusual varieties I was looking for. Shipping was inexpensive and FAST. Hope everything grows!

This is the second year I have dealt with Baker Creek and I am very pleased with their catalog, website and their customer service. I have found them to be very easy to deal with and I have always received my orders very quickly ( I do live in TX and they are in MO). I would recommend to give them a look.

This is the first time I've ordered from Baker Creek. Their selection of rare seeds was amazing! I received a free gift with my purchase (Lettuce Red Romaine) which was very exciting. My order had a receipt with a hand signed note on it. I love the personal touches like that. Enclosed there was also a note thanking me for my order and apologizing for the delay in shipping that they have had a huge increase in orders. I was happy to hear that business was doing well for them! I will happily continue to order from Baker Creek in the future.

I love their catalog.
This is the third time I have ordered from them and the service
is prompt and their shipping charge is very reasonable. ($3.00)
I was going to order some seeds from Burpee and their
shipping and handling fee was $6.95 for a few packets of
seeds. I canceled that order.

I love the variety and have had great results from their seeds.
The varieties of tomatoes from Iraq have been great!
Now if the weather is good this summer..................
Great company and I love what they are doing!

I always order from Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds for the following reasons:

1. They've ALWAYS been quick to answer any of my questions on specific varieties. They're actually the ONLY big heirloom seed company that has replied to my questions.

2. Excellent shipping prices!!! It's only $3.00 per order for shipping!

3. FAST shipping!!! My seeds shipped the next business day from my order!

4. They send a GENEROUS amount of seed per packet! :)

5. They do very valuable seed conservation work and they donate seeds to worthy causes. I really appreciate them for that.

THANK YOU BAKER CREEK HEIRLOOM SEEDS!!! :)

"Great Customer Service"
Though my order was not as large as some of your other happy customers, you still gave me the same excellent service that you gave them, for that I thank you. Also I am impressed with your product and catalog. Will order from Baker Creek again.

I have been ordering from Baker's Creek for several years now, and I find their seeds to be TOP NOTCH!!! Because I generally plant a very large garden or two on my farm, I always need seeds each year. Because Baker's Creek sells heirloom seeds, I'm able to save seed most years for the following year's gardens.

I love the many variety of seeds they offer which increases each year, and I really LOVE that they are not asking too much for shipping seeds to me. Over the years, they simply keep getting better and better. This year, they have greatly improved their seed packets with complete descriptions and planting instructions for each variety of plant. Also, I ordered my seeds on February 21st and received them on February 26th with apologies for the "delay" to which I say, "What delay???" This for a mere $3.00 shipping through the US postal service.

Fast, efficient, and seeds upon which I can count!

Shipping was as expected for peak seed buying season and I got my entire order in one shot. This is my first time ordering from them but I believe this is where I will be getting ALL seeds from that I need in the future. I looked at a lot of heirloom seed places and this was one of the cheapest so you can imagine how happy I am to have these seeds! I definitely recommend this company to anyone looking for heirloom seeds, I cannot attest to how well the seeds grow yet but I have a good feeling about them.

This is my second year ordering online from Baker Creek. I love that they have only heirloom seeds and that they carry such a wide variety, and the prices are very reasonable. I had some trouble last year with germinating a few of my tomatoes (which may have been due to other factors besides the seeds themselves), but otherwise had good success! Their shipping has always been very fast, and I like that the descriptions on the website often mention what kind of climate is best for a particular variety.

This is my first year planting my own garden after watching friends and family do it for years. So I searched online for heirloom seeds and decided on Baker's Creek because of the wonderful website that has a wide selection and really helpful descriptions, and I am SO happy! The seeds were shipped so fast, I couldn't believe it when I received them today. And not only did I receive exactly what I ordered, but I got a free packet of eggplant seeds. I can't wait to plant my garden and I will definitely be shopping with Baker's Creek again. Thank you!!!

This is my second year ordering from Baker Creek. I love this company. I received my order within days of placing it (and being in rural New Mexico, I rarely get any orders quickly), and they have been very helpful when I've contacted them. I had wonderful results with my seeds last year. If you haven't tried Baker Creek, give them a chance. They have a wide selection, an easy to use web site, and seem to be very dedicated to keeping their customers happy, as well as providing quality seeds.

This is the second year I have ordered seeds from Baker Creek and so far I have been very impressed. It is a very neat company that shares my values and I am happy to support them. Both times I've ordered, I have received my seeds very quickly. Last year I placed my order kind of late (mid-May) and they did not have one of the seeds I requested; they sent a refund for the seed with the remainder of my order. I was satisfied with this solution. They've always sent me a free packet of herb seed. I just recently planted my seeds for this year, so I can't speak to germination for this order, but I had great success with the seeds I ordered last year (even in a year that was not great for gardening in my area). I think that Baker Creek is doing great things in the organic / heirloom gardening world! I can't say enough good things about them--their seeds are great, their service is quick, their festivals are awesome, and their catalog is beautiful!

A friend gave me a gift certificate for this company for Christmas. I've never ordered from them before, but was impressed by their selection. Catalog is attractive and informative. They were very quick getting my ordered filled and enclosed cash because they were out of one of the varieties I'd ordered. In my order, I'd allowed for substitutions, but I was impressed that they would refund my money rather than substitute just anything they happened to have on hand. We'll see what the germination rate's like, but for now, I am happy I ordered from this company.

this was my first order with baker creek so i can't say much about germination..i expect about 50% from organic heirloom seeds..my order came quick ..even though they sent me a note with my order saying "sorry for the delay" .... one item they didn't have a good substitute for so they mailed back cash with my order..which is cool, most places probably would've just thrown any old pack of seeds in and said " there, there is your substitute"...so far real good..if the seeds do good i'll be buying from them exclusively...

We placed our order. They must have shipped from my driveway! The fastest, most efficient mail order I've ever encountered. I'll do a follow-up about seed quality later, but for now- we're blown away with the customer service.
A note in the shipping envelope referred to "sorry for any delay due to increased orders". WOW!

As always, I am very satisfied. They have a great selection, fantastic shipping rates, and they are very fast. I placed my order on the same day as I ordered from a Canadian company (I'm in Ontario) and not only is their shipping half the rate, but it got here sooner!

I would love to see 'date to maturity' on everything though, as I am quite a bit further north than where they are.
