Welcome to Northampton Seed Company! We’re Susan and Jeff, a couple passionate about growing fresh, nutritious food right at home. What began as a personal project has grown into a family business, allowing us to share the joy of home gardening with others, no matter where they live.
Our journey started when we realized that splitting our time between our homes in Pennsylvania and Brooklyn, NY meant we couldn’t tend to a traditional garden regularly. We needed an easy, low-maintenance way to grow our own food without requiring a large outdoor space or constant care. That’s when we discovered the perfect solution—microgreens and the Kratky method of hydroponics! Microgreens are nutrient-packed, easy to grow, and ideal for small spaces like windowsills. By incorporating a simple wick system for our microgreens and using the Kratky method for hydroponics, we could grow fresh greens even while we were away.
We don’t have a large yard, so we use LED grow lights indoors, which gives us better control over temperature and humidity. This setup lets us grow year-round while maintaining the ideal conditions for our plants. It worked so well that we decided to share it with others, and Northampton Seed Company was born!
At Northampton Seed Company, we specialize in microgreens growing kits, seeds and other supplies for home gardeners of all levels. Our kits are self-watering and designed with beginners in mind, making it a breeze to grow your own fresh microgreens at home. Whether you’re new to gardening or a seasoned green thumb, we aim to provide everything you need for success.
And we’re not stopping there! Soon, we’ll be offering hydroponic kits and supplies, making it even easier to bring innovative gardening solutions into your home. Whether you’re growing microgreens or diving into hydroponics, we’re committed to making gardening accessible, sustainable, and fun.
As a small family business based in the USA, we value community, sustainability, and healthy living. We’re thrilled to welcome you into our growing community, and we can’t wait to help you start (or expand!) your own home garden.
Thank you for choosing Northampton Seed Company!
