Nursery Practices

Nursery at night

Our stock has been grown onsite from open-pollinated seeds or rooted cuttings from our mother plants. We guarantee the health of our plants and assure a high quality of care from inception to point of sale.

When you buy our California Certified Organic annuals and perennials, you are supporting the programs and work of OAEC.

Bring us your pots!

We'd love to reuse your gallon, square 4-inch pots and square 17-inch flats. No others, please.

Did you know?

The OAEC Nursery is one of the only in the Bay Area that is 100% California Certified Organic, including our ornamentals and all aspects of our production: potting mixes, amendments and foliar sprays.

Other sustainability practices include the use of recycled pots and EnviroStake, a polypropylene-derived pot tag that is curbside recyclable and biodegradable.

The OAEC Nursery is the only 100% California Certified Organic nursery in the Bay Area with a non-profit education center onsite.

Our plants are appropriate for Permaculture design. We offer hundreds of varieties of annual and perennial vegetables, flowers, and culinary and medicinal herbs, many started from our own seed collection. All have been trialed and savored for years in our demonstration gardens and kitchen.
