$1 Seedling Sale

Overview

Sydney's urban oasis Pocket City Farms is opening up its greenhouse this weekend and selling $1 seedlings for all you aspiring green thumbs out there.

The sale includes nine different seedlings, including curled green dwarf kale, red beetroot, purple kohlrabi, rainbow chard and broccoli leaf spigarello. And you can nab them in packs of five for just five bucks. All of the farm's veggies are grown using chemical-free practices too.

With social distancing in mind, all seedling sales will be available through pre-purchase only. Two pick-up slots are allocated from 10am–12pm on Saturday, August 1 and 11am–12pm Wednesday, August 5. Free delivery is also available from 12–4pm on the Wednesday (with a $20 minimum purchase).

While walk-up sales will not be permitted, you can complete your order while waiting in the queue on the day.⁠ But the seedlings are subject to availability, and you'll be able to list your preferences when you pre-order. Substitutions may be necessary — but for one dollarydoo a pop, you can hardly complain.

Apart from the seedlings, you can also add any other offerings from PCF's online shop to your order, including pickles, preserves, honey and merch. It'll all be ready for you to pick up during your designated time slot.
