Comments regarding Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Co.

Very helpful with questions. Excellent service.

I love this company. The catalog is beautiful. The orders are delivered quickly and correctly. Plus, they include a FREE packet of seeds (their choice) with every order. I'm also pleased with the comments regarding the seeds on the website and the rating system.

Seeds always arrive quickly and the product is excellent!! We will be buying all our seeds here.

This is my second year buying seeds from Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds, and it won't be my last. Love the catalog, and they provide excellent customer service. For example: I emailed earlier this year thinking the Spinach seeds I ordered were bad (i.e., not germinating). I received a quick response indicating they had not had any other complaints about the seed, and they explained that Spinach can take a while to germinate (the note also said that if they ultimately didn't germinate they would certainly refund my money) -- sure enough a short while later I had baby spinach plants that ultimately the plants produced tons of fresh spinach leaves. My vegetable garden is in full production -- thanks BCHS!!

If they can get my order in perfect condition all the way to the other side of the planet here in Argentina in no time at all... you can rest assured. Top notch outfit, if you ask me. Great personal attention. I have a new seed company!

Wow! I spent a couple hours just reading about the red tomato varieties, as well as the peppers. Made my selections, they arrived in just a few days. Excellent service! Also received a bonus - free pack of cauliflower seed, perfect for the winter garden here in FL. Thanks, I'll be a repeat customer.

Great selection. I got exactly what I ordered plus a free packet of seed and the shipping was extremely reasonable. The order was placed on Thursday and it was delivered the next day along with a note that said, "Sorry for any delays" which made me smile. Well done Baker's Creek.

Great selection of heirloom seeds. I just received my package of 11 envelopes of seeds within several days of ordering. They threw in some free broccoli seeds, and wrote a little thank you note on the receipt. I'll definitely order from Baker Creek again.

They're a really polite and well-mannered company. Even though I received my seeds in over a span of the regular five days, they sent a thank you and "apology for any delay" sheet. Also, I received a free random packet of seeds. Will most likely be doing business again next summer...

I've ordered from Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds about four times this year and had unbelievable service each time. I'm not kidding, I got my seeds within 2 - 4 days each time and they were all of excellent quality.

Fast shipping at a reasonable cost, nice packaging and great communication. Thanks !

Ordered from here after reading the reviews on here and love this place. A beautiful catalog that looks more like a soft cover book then catalog was the first impressive thing. I searched for the items I wanted bought quite a lot... shipping is great as they have a flat rate no matter what you get! Waited maybe 4 days and everything arrived!!! Came with a free seed packet ( I got pink tomatoes)!!! Invoice was handsigned with a thank you.. I will def be ordering from bakers creek again, did I mention the seed packets contain more seeds then other places I order for less $$$... seed packets range from 1.25 - 3.75.... great place will be visiting the town they are in to visit their seed bank with my family soon! : )

Our daughter is 2 and starting to want to dig, pick flowers, help water etc...so armed with an older catalog, we placed a couple of orders with Baker Creek. These guys ROCK!!! The customer service gals are the most courteous I've ever talked to and the personal thank you notes on the invoices makes us feel special :-) We are enjoying the gardening and cant wait for the new Baker Creek seed catalog to plan next years gardens and beds!

I placed an order for seeds last weekend and by the middle of the week had received everything I ordered without a problem. Shipping was very reasonable and I look forward to dealing with them again. Thanks!!!!!

Baker Creek is the best! I'm delighted with how promptly they fill orders. Two times now I have run out of seed at the 11th hour and had to order more and they were here within just a few days. I love what they stand for (no GMOs) and I've enjoyed watching the company grow over the years. I buy all of my vegetable seeds from only Baker now.

This is a great seed company - our recent order was accurate and on time.

My order was shipped very quickly, and I was quite pleased with my free gift. Thanks! I will definitely be ordering again next year!

I loved their catalog, it is the most beautiful one I've seen. Their service is very fast, its seems I ordered them one day and the next they were here, I was very surprised. I am definitely telling all of my friends and customers about there company.

The products and service from Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds are excellent. I have ordered from them 3 times in the past 3 months, and have received my order within a few days every time. The seeds are of excellent quality. This is my first time to grow tomatoes from seed, and every seed sprouted and is thriving. I also ordered various flower seed varieties with the same results! The catalog is beautiful, and their website is super user-friendly for quick and easy ordering. Bottom line: Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds is a top-notch company with superior products and service!

This is my first year of growing anything from seed. In the past, I either bought plants from my local Home Depot or the seeds that I bought from the store either didn't come up or came up slowly and produced poorly. Baker's Creek seeds are awesome! They were all up within 5 days.

Their catalog is beautiful and informative. Mine is now dog-eared from looking through it so much.

Delivery time is lightning quick....3 days!

I am excited to know that this company is working with other heirloom farmers to protect seeds and that they have seeds that are not genetically altered and loaded with chemicals. I will buy from no other place EXCEPT Baker Creek! Also, I love the rare varieties. Can't wait to see how they produce!

The web site was easy to use. I ordered by mail easily. I expected it to take around 3-4 weeks to get my order. I was pleasantly surprised when I received my order in 2 weeks!!
Only one item was not in stock. I am VERY pleased with everything. I deffinitely WILL order from them again.
It is such a nice chang to find a company that is easy to work with and good customer service. They even sent change back because we made the check out for too much. I liked that more than having my account credited for future purchases. I have worked with some awful companies in the past. Since I have found davesgarden feedback, I no longer have to deal with bad companies!

After good experiences in the past, I placed my 2010 order with them on May 7th. I received my order on May 16th, which is amazing given that there was a weekend involved and I'm in Alaska. The order was packaged nicely, and shipping was amazingly reasonable at $3.00. Baker Creek is my first choice for seeds, as they have everything I want: a great catalog with varieties that work in my climate, reasonable shipping, fast service, reasonable prices, and high-quality non-GMO seeds. I'll be ordering again next year.

Thay where quite nice and even tho my seeds where out of stock and I had just paid for thay gave me back my money And gave me a free pack of seeds .
The best part is when thay said thank you thay wrote down there name by hand and that maid me feel like thay really care about ther customers.

I Will tell outhers of this great company and tell them that if you want you want non hybrid seeds with great services use this companey! :)

We can tell that this incredible company strives for excellence with super service and products. Seeds arrived within the week of ordering and germinated withing the first week of planting. We really appreciated the pleasant & courteous telephone customer service.
We are positively Satisfied Customers who will be ordering from Baker Creek for years to come and referring the company to all of our relatives and friends.
Thank you for going above and beyond your committment for excellence service.

Order arrived in three day with a note apologizing for the delay. Price very reasonable. Seeds have germinated. I am happy with this company's service.

I've used the company for about three years now with great results. Seeds are mailed promptly each and every time.

I have ordered from Baker Creek several times, the most difficult thing with ordering is trying to keep my enthusiasm with all the wonderful choices. This past time I ordered, it arrived so quickly that I was sure it was not my order of seeds already, it just couldn't be them so soon. Wonderful selection, delivery, and prices. I will surely order again.

The hardest part of ordering seeds from Baker Creek is controlling the overwhelming urge to order everything in the catalog! I have read and re-read every word and drooled over the exquisite photographs. I would frame the catalog but I’m still enjoying reading it – when I can get it back from my husband.

My order arrived quickly and was safely packaged. I had a package of Brandywine tomato seeds from another company and compared them to my Baker Creek Brandywine seeds. The Baker Creek seeds are obviously fresher, while the seeds from the other company are dark and shriveled.

Heirloom, open-pollinated seeds are the only ones I will grow and Baker Creek is my favorite heirloom, open pollinated seed company.

FANTASTIC COMPANY. FAST, FAST SHIPPING.
WOULD DEFINITELY ORDER FORM AGAIN.

I was pleased with the variety and rarity of the seeds in their catalog. I received all of the seeds I ordered promptly. I highly recommend Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Company.

Outstandingly beautiful printed catalog. I personally enjoyed reading the various quotes and company philosophy. Nothing wrong with doing business with a company who you agree with, and not doing business with one you don't agree with.
Every packet I ordered (tomatoes, winter and summer squash, cukes, corn, peppers, beans, etc. and various flowers) had large numbers of healthy-looking seeds. The peppers were up and looking beautiful much faster than I anticipated!
I really like the small seeds being placed in small ziplock bags. Very easy to retrieve said seeds rather than the little waxed envelopes some companies use.
All seeds offered are heirloom, which I love, and their corn is guaranteed GMO-free which is very hard to find nowadays. I would encourage everyone to order from this wonderful company. I also enjoy their heirloom flowers which are almost impossible to find. I can't wait to enjoy my 'real' petunias!

This is the first order I've placed with Baker Creek. I ordered their catalog on recommendation from Eliot Coleman's Winter Harvest Handbook. When the catalog arrived I was immediately captivated by the wonderfully unusual seed varieties offered and the quality of the catalog itself. I placed my order online and was concerned when I read that it would take 5-8 days to process the order, but to my surprise the order arrived two days later. The order was complete and Baker tucked in an extra packet of seed as a bonus. Everything I ordered is in the ground and I'm anxious to see the germination rate and how vigorous the plants are. I'll have to give another report once I see how well they do. So far I'm impressed.

excellent company to purchase from. product arrived in a timely maner.

We've been ordering seeds from Baker Creek for 3-4 years and have never been disappointed. I was so excited to find out that they have a seed bank in Petaluma, my hometown. Haven't been yet, but fully intend to during my high school reunion. I've never ordered seeds that haven't produced plants and every year they've sent us a free seed packet. This year, my husband and I went back and forth about watermelons but didn't order any, and then Baker Creek sent us a packet for free. Needless to say, I'm going to get to plant some. We have seeds that are 1-2 years old that are still producing plants. Love the product, the information and the seeds since they're all heirlooms. Couldn't be bigger fans and we live in LA, couldn't be more urban. Anybody can do this, just abandon your lawn and voila, a bountiful table of heirloom vegetables. So glad we found them when we did.

We have ordered 3 times from Baker Creek. Their customer service is excellent. The prices are very reasonable, we love the flat $3 shipping, and they include a free seed packet with every order. The orders are filled quickly. If the seeds you order are out of stock, they issue a refund.

We love their website, too.

Overall, we recommend Baker Creek to every gardener.

This is my third order and the fast deliver, free seed, and customer service is tops-they appreciate our business. So glad to have their catalog-full of pictures of plants and fruit.

I am very pleased with the experience that I had with Baker creek seeds-If fact so pleased I have ordered 3 times and have another to send out for this year-I overpaid the first time and they graciously sent me back the extra money-I love the catalogue,homey atmosphere of their company and Godly integrity that is a silent witness-Their seeds also germinated quickly and are growing well and they sent more than the regular amount of seed-Thank you Baker Creek Heirloom seeds! I am very pleased.I have already recommended you to 3 other people in this area who are also ordering!

Ordered seeds two days ago, received today! Got a nice bonus - a free packet of Mammoth Sunflower seeds. Very good experience - this is the first time I ordered from them.

I will be ordering again - they have some wonderful heirloom seed tomatoes I want!
