There is no doubt world events have changed the way people do their shopping. Why are so many people changing where they buy from, including their garden supplies? It's probably because of the many benefits available online, including better prices, access to free information, fresh products, and company affiliate or ambassador programs. While some people prefer to browse the garden isles of their local grocery or outdoor supply stores, you are most likely to find the best deals and options online. Along with the variety of products we offer our True Leaf Market family, we also strive to supply the best information for a successful growing experience.


Benefits



Products Shipped Directly to Your Door

If you are like me, you don’t always find everything you need in one store. And when you do, you are often sacrificing quality for at least one item. When you shop online, you can easily find the best quality items and conveniently have them shipped to your door. This not only saves you the time of meandering around a store or finding that your items are out of stock and requiring a second trip. Stock up on all your seasonal gardening needs and qualify for Fast Free Shipping on orders over $45. With the holidays coming up, put your feet up and purchase directly from the businesses you love by shopping online.

Larger Product Selection

Because brick-and-mortar stores create a limit on how many products and how much inventory can be offered at once, online stores are usually able to offer you a larger variety of products. True Leaf Market is continually adding new products to meet your needs. This spring, we will be offering our largest availability of flower seeds yet! If you haven’t found your favorite flowers in the past, keep an eye out, we just might have it in the works. In addition to expanding our flower seeds, we have recently added many beloved Asian Varieties and organic versions of your favorite vegetable seeds. Now is a great time to try a different variety or discover new vegetables you may not be familiar with.

Access Free Growing Guides and Information

When shopping in a store, you may have access to a knowledgeable individual. When shopping online, you have access to a plethora of educational materials directly for your use. On our website you can find our blog located under the info tab, as well as several grow guides and other helpful pages. If you are new to gardening, we highly suggest you download our free vegetable, cover crop, herb, and sprouting growing guides.
