Welcome to Brother Nature.ca where our passion is natural, pesticide and chemical free gardening. We love gardening and gardeners too and as a result we have thousands of them as satisfied customers. We feel it is our duty to preserve and protect and teach about sustainable seed, soil & food sources. Our desire is to support any agricultural process that leads to healthier people, plants and soil. Our highly diverse gardens, tended to in an organic style (with crop rotation and companion planting etc.) creates a well balanced, sustainable and healthy environment. These organic practices have proven there is never a need for artificial inputs that can and will alter the natural reproductive capabilities of our plants and their environment. We provide 100% naturally grown this means zero pesticides, herbicides or chemicals are added to our plot or plantsever!! We do not grow or sell genetically modified seeds. We also eat many of the vegetables and edible flowers that are produced in our gardens, so we are diligent about our grow process for our own health purposes.

When we amend our garden soil it is provided by an organic soil producer. All of our plants are openly pollinated, our water source is spring fed and we hand weed, pick, clean and package in an eco-friendly packaging. We do not treat or coat our seed with anything and because we personally germination test every batch, every year, we know our product will meet your expectations. People love to tell us about their success and rave about the quality of our seeds. Many have commented on the generous seed count in the packages, where as other seed companies provide only the exact number specified, we package by inverse ratio to the germination rates. We want to be sure that a 100 seed count package provides 100 germinated seeds. Brother Nature Natural Seeds sprang to life in 2002 driven by a passion for nature, healthful gardening & an inexpensive way to provide fail safe, naturally grown seeds and plants, for our own private greenhouses, that supply our 25 year old landscaping business. We located a suitable plot on a Historic Farm in the Cowichan Valley, BC, Canada and began our project. It was tremendously successful and many friends, family and all of our landscaping and nursery clients requested we sell some seed to them. They had already had plants in their gardens from our nursery and those plants came from seed we had saved so they knew our product would serve them well. Our company is also proud to announce that we are now selling our seed WORLD WIDE. Our seeds have found homes in Spain, England, Denmark, Australia, Holland and several US states! Have an abundant season. Stay Happy & Healthy!! At Brother Nature we sell you trust. Enjoy your Garden and thank you for investing in sustainable agriculture.

aches and pains.
