Ordering and Shipping 

Before placing an order

You will need to register online for a new account, or login to an existing account. Adding stocks to the cart before completing your registration can cause problems completing the order, please copmplete your registration before adding stocks to your cart.

Please review our fee structure and payment options.

For international orders, please check whether your country requires a permit or other documentation to import stocks. Seed stocks sent to some countries require a Phytosanitary Certificate, issued through the Ohio Department of Agriculture, or an import permit, issued by the recipient country. There may also be restrictions on special packaging such as dry ice.

If your order must arrive by a specific date, please contact us.

Order Processing

Most orders are processed and shipped within one week of being placed. Large orders (over 100 stocks) and seed orders that require a phytosanitary certificate may take longer.

Shipping and Delivery

Most orders are shipped by United States Postal Service (USPS). Shipping times are approximately 2-4 weeks for domestic orders and 4-8 weeks for international orders. If you need to track your order, please select express shipping. We are unable to track packages sent by USPS. If you select express shipping, your order will be shipped by United Parcel Service (UPS). Shipping times by UPS are 1-3 days for domestic orders and 2-7 days for international orders.
