Beekman 1802 & Art In The Age: The Seeds of Democracy
We are veritably tickled over the arrival of new products from Beekman 1802, especially our new shipment (read: future harvest) of flower and vegetable seeds!
All of the Beekman 1802 products come from The Beekman Farm, a beautiful and bountiful estate in Sharon Springs, NY. Dr. Brent Ridge, one of the Beekman proprietors, orders his seeds from D. Landreth Seed Company, the oldest seed supplier in the United States (since 1784)!
Not only does Dr. Brent Ridge go to D. Landreth, but so has every US President from Washington to FDR! Eleanor Roosevelt was the most recent First Lady to sow a Victory Garden…until Michelle Obama picked up the hoe and trowel!
