Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds Reviews

What an adventure back in time. Loved the music, food and of course selection of seeds, plants and crafts.

Cool site with lots of interesting seeds you don't find everywhere! Order shipped quick and they threw in some free seeds too. Quality seems good, everything I've planted has germinated well.

This wonderful place promotes a healthy lifestyle and has kind staff! Don't miss the documentaries. Make sure that you show up between 11 and 2 on days that lunch is served.

Love their prices and selection. My dad and I order our seeds from them every year.

Seed packets are sprayed with Lysol. Horrifying for an organic company.

Adventures here galore. Great food to experience. Seed selection second to none.

I have always been impressed with the seeds I've ordered from Baker Creek.

Always a fun trip. Recommend spring planting festival

Absolutely great experience!! Will defiantly be buying from them again! They didn t send me the seeds I was looking forward to the most, so I gave them a call and they apologized and are fixing the problem! Great customer service!

For this year gardening we decided to buy our seeds from Baker creek to grow our plants. We grow plants for many years.This company was recommended by Sarah and Kevin from Living traditions homestead on their youtube channel. Long story short no one of the seeds germinated and develop the seedlings good for planting. Very disappointed -i will never buy from them again and i definitely will unsubscribe from Sarah and Kevin channel to avoid being misled again.

OK, I looked at the reviews and bought a lot of seeds. I am VERY unhappy with the "wild strawberry " seed in particular. I bought several packets, planted some outdoors, some indoors in starter planters. The germination rate was PATHETIC. Out of two full packets of seeds, got only THREE sprouts!!!. Yeah, sent an email, NO RESPONSE! Suggest you find a local place to do business with.

Beautiful area, most delicious cinnamon rolls ever! Great heirloom seed selection.

Have found that over the years seed quality, germination rates and overall success rate with Baker Creek seeds has fallen substantially. Started ordering from Baker Creek over 5 years ago and had great success. Latest batch I had difficulty germinating mustard in Sept/Oct in Florida. Started peppers and got way less than 50% germination rate, disappointing. Sexy catalog, but grower quality controls slipping?

They have a huge variety of seeds and info. I always look forward to the seed catalog coming in the mail

A great place to step back away from the modern world and walk right into the past. Make this a stop on your next trip through the area, especially if you go visit the Laura Ingalls Wilder home which is a few miles south of here. Friendly staff, fresh baked bread and cinnamon rolls and much more.

More on this location later. I arrived on a Saturday, drove up the road to the facility and wondered why it was so empty. I walked around for about 20 minutes and looked in all of the closed and locked shops. I returned to my truck, drove back to the entrance gate and discovered it closed, chained, and padlocked. I was locked in. I drove back to the main structure and got out, walked around again and located a nice young woman who was working in one of the greenhouses. Fortunately she gave me directions to a super secret exit that took me to 10 miles of red clay Missouri road and back to the highway. I'll return and provide a full review when scheduling allows.

This was a neat place to visit. All the staff was extremely nice. The meals at some place asked for a donation instead of having set prices. It was interesting to see and I am glad we went.

Love shopping for seeds here! So many veg so little time!

Great day. Free visit. Friendly people who like their work. Lunch is oriental, with one or two options, with upscale presentation. Cost is donation ($5-10 per person) Delicious vegan ice cream for dessert. Animals, old time buildings, interesting films in the seed store and all the seeds you can imagine. If open, the bakery sells giant cinnamon rolls for a couple dollars.

Sorry,and very disappointed. I requested a catalog last fall and they acknowledged and said they'd send one. As of February 1st I haven't received one or an explination .Im sure they take care of old customers but don't care about me . I dont feel i need to place a second request ,if they can't get it right the first time I'd hate to trust them with money .

I have ordered seed from Baker Creek for awhile now. Unfortunately, for me, the germination rate is not good at all. Two years in a row now so I will not be ordering again. Sigh.

I purchased a large variety of seeds. In most the packages were either summer squash or zucchini seeds. I will NOT purchase again.

Fun and informative place to visit! Very friendly people who know their business. Loved the shops and gardens. Definitely will go back, hopefully during each season. Drool over their catalog during winter.

Great place to order my small garden seeds. Thanks for everything !!!

Very cool place. Had all kinds of booths and shops to look through.

They offer some of the most unique and rare seeds available on the market and their prices and shipping costs are extremely competitive. They're my "go to" seed company for the unique varieties and the catalog is always incredible to look through.

I've always loved Bakers Creek! Their selection, variety, everything, but this year I've been extremely disappointed. This is the worst germination I've ever had with them. After talking to several friends, they are also having the same problem with their Baker Creek seed which tells me it's not me, and spending so much with them this year and having such poor results( I've had no issue with other seed ive purchased) I'll be rethinking next years seed. The only seed I got this year with a 75% or better germination rate was my eggplant. My cucs, squashes, melons and herbs all did 10% or less.

Tulips in bloom, great food as always, friendly baker, good sour dough bread.

I just simply love going to this place at least once a year. The Spring Planting Festival is a must-go event!!

We've been regular mail/internet customers for over 9 years. We have never had an issue with the seeds we've purchased (of course that is our own personal experience - I cannot speak for everyone. We are experienced gardeners, and this may make a difference) This year we went over a hundred miles out of our way to visit their spread in Missouri. Wow. We were just delighted. We were like kids in a candy shop at their brick and mortar store. Keep up the good work you guys - we respect what you do very much.

Baker Creek is by far the best and most renowned source for purchasing heirloom seeds in the US!
The order arrives quickly and if you were to have a question, the staff answers each and every question.
More businesses should model themselves after this GEM!
Thank you!

This was a neat place to visit. All the staff was extremely nice. The meals at some place asked for a donation instead of having set prices. It was interesting to see and I am glad we went.

I bought seeds before and I loved them. Now I bought again. I'm looking forward to a bountiful harvest of rare veggies..

Beautiful day in the country! Wonderful cinnamon rolls!

Baker Creek is just the best... They have such an amazing, fun, and beautiful variety/selection. 99.9% of my germination experiences were successful, and the one that was not, was quickly replaced by their wondeful customer service along with some advice to help with my second try. Everyone there seems to truly love what they do- I would recommend Baker Creek to anyone!

We absolutely live this place. It is a Gardner's Disneyland, especially if you are committed to growing organics, heirlooms, and saving seeds. Festivals first Sunday of the month usually involve bluegrass, garden, and greenhouse tours. The vegan restaurant was fantastic. It's donation based and they only serve a couple items but those items are phenomenal. The village is set up pioneer like. Just awesome.

My dad always used to say,"Good food is cheaper than doctor bills." These seeds produce food the way nature intended and God made them ( ..."let every seed bring forth after it's kind" ). When big corporations are altering our food, it makes you appreciate someone dedicated to keeping it pure. I ate an excellent healthy meal at their festival north of Mansfield, MO, and they didn't charge me ! I just left a donation. Of course I did buy a lot from venders, plants and seeds from their store, also. I wish we had a community like this close by in Arkansas.

Baker Creek normally has the best selection of seeds of any company.
Due to the virus, this year has been a challenge obtaining seeds due to unbelievable demand. Not only is the quality of the seed excellent, but Baker provides .free shipping. They do not try to make a profit by overcharging for shipping. This is the only internet seed company that I use and have used it for many years. I highly recommend it for serious gardeners and beginning gardeners alike. Quality and variety of seeds can not be matched anywhere.

Fun place for the family to visit. The bakery had amazing food.

My Amaranth looks better than your photo in the seed catalog that I planted from seed !!! So excited !

Fun day for kids. You must go the first Sunday of the month for the festivals.

Amazing place so much to see and learn, and the seeds!!!!!! My goodness the seeds!!! No words should've sent a poet

We saw the signs on the highway and made an impromptu pitstop. We are so glad we did! This was such a fun place to walk through. We stopped too late for a meal, buy the baked goods and jams are to die for! Their store has so much to look at, plus a ton of seed varieties. If you are in the area, go check them out!

Just stopped in with my family. Unique and beautiful stop. Stocked up on seeds. Best cinnamon rolls we ever had. Helpful and friendly staff. Will be back.

Awesome stuff!! Plants trees seeds the whole village is exceptional!! Some really cool walking stick in store!

Baker Creek always has fantastic selection and great prices.

My order was shipped next day and arrived to me (in Canada) in great time.

I look forward to my next order.

Although I loved this place I'm giving 3 stars for them closing down for 2 seasons now over Covid that has the same statistics as the normal flu. 99.7% recovery does not warrant a shut down. I've become pretty annoyed with them closing everything for so long.

Their incredible variety of heirloom seeds was accompanied by knowledgeable friendly staff. I found seeds I haven't been able to get for over 40 years!

A fascinating place, and all the seeds you could want. For an "organic" this, "heirloom" that seed company their prices are reasonable. Haven't been able to get out and plant the seeds yet, but the live plants we bought are doing well so far. I have every reason to believe the rest will too.

Got my seeds much quicker than anticipated! They came in the cutest package too. Really excited to plant my whole garden with Heirloom Seeds!!

In love with Baker Creek and all the amazing plants and seeds they offer. I cannot recommend them enough!

The BEST place to buy seeds. Free shipping and free suprise on every order. Shop here!

First time there. They had so many great vendors and great deals on plants.

Went to the spring thing and bought plants for the garden. Glad we got there early because it got crowded fast so we left early but it's a neat place to check out. Lots of fun!

Great place to relax and enjoy fresh farm items and pick up some seeds for your garden.

Fun wholesome event for the whole family!!! I Folk music!!!!! God bless this Family.

Purchased banana plants. Didn't get updates until it shipped...two MONTHS later. The banana plants we got...were seedlings. Had they sent me the seeds two months ago I could have grown bigger plants than what they sent me. Both "plants" were about 1-1 1/2 inches tall.

Fun place to take the kids. We like how many seed variety they have.

From Los Angeles.
Baker Creek seeds is my goto seed shop.
I love their products, product description.... i have had REALLY great luck with their plants and seeds.
Love their magazing as well.
Great company

Wonderful layout, great customer service, bakery was fabulous and very informative festivals

We will visit here often . They have a great place and a good restaurant!

This Place Is A Must Visit. You Will Be Amazed, It's A Great Pioneer Village Located In A Beautiful Setting. They Sell Heirloom Non GMO Seeds With Thousands Of Varieties. They Also Have A Festival Every First Sunday Of The Month Starting In March With Music, Vendor's, Bakery, Blacksmith, Restaurant & Of Course SEEDS
