Chosen for Canadian seasons
We care about varieties that make sense for short summers, indoor starts, container growers, small gardens, and serious backyard seed people.
Casa Verde Seeds · Vaudreuil-Dorion, Québec
A seed shop for cooks who garden, and gardeners who cook.
Casa Verde Seeds is a small Québec seed shop built around flavour, colour, and short-season growing. We choose rare peppers, heirloom tomatoes, culinary herbs, edible flowers, and unusual vegetables for the people who want the harvest to earn its place in the kitchen.

What we are building
Not a generic seed rack.
Casa Verde started as a micro farm and kitchen-driven growing project. The seed shop grew out of the same question we kept coming back to: what should a grower plant if flavour matters as much as yield?
That is why the catalog leans toward peppers with real culinary personality, tomatoes worth slicing at the table, herbs that change a dish, edible flowers that chefs actually use, and vegetables with colour, texture, or history behind them.
Founder and operator
Michael Kaufmann
Michael founded and operates Casa Verde Microfarm and Casa Verde Seeds in Vaudreuil-Dorion, Québec. He manages the seed catalogue, store operations, product information, grower support, and the practical guides published on this site.
The seed shop grew from Casa Verde's work with chefs, growers, and home gardeners. That background is why varieties are organized around flavour, kitchen use, Canadian season planning, and the details gardeners need before they plant.
Written for real growers
Product pages provide practical facts such as seed count, maturity, heat, growth habit, best uses, and growing notes that help before checkout.
Selected through a cook's lens
The best seed is not only productive. It has a reason to exist on the plate: sauce, salsa, pickles, garnish, stuffing, roasting, drying, or fresh eating.
How we communicate
Useful facts before exaggerated promises.
Rare does not automatically mean easy, early, heirloom, or open-pollinated. Product listings identify hybrid status where known, and our Canadian guides explain the tradeoffs behind season length, indoor starts, plant size, and culinary use. When a listing is unclear, we want customers to ask before planting.
