UPDATES:
We’re so grateful for your support and enthusiasm for seeds and growing, and we feel privileged to have such a great community of customers.
We are looking for live-in volunteers for 2026/2027! Each summer we welcome enthusiastic young folks from all over the world, who join us for a gap year between high school and college to experience our extraordinary life-sharing community, where people with developmental differences are living with dignity, equality and purpose. In the current international climate, many people from outside the US do not want to come to the US. This is a significant challenge for us. If you or someone you know is interested in an extraordinary year of learning, working and connecting with folks with developmental challenges, please send them our way! To find out more about our beautiful community, please visit www.camphillvillage.org volunteer@camphillvillage.org to inquire
If you choose to donate: Seed purchases only cover part of our costs. Your financial donations to us help to support our ability to donate seeds to a wide array of community organizations, from school gardens & food pantries to prison gardens, seed libraries and more. Donations also support our day to day operations, and sometimes a special need like the new overwintering hoop house and replacement greenhouse wood stove which we purchased with help from last year’s donations.
With heartfelt gratitude, –The Turtle Tree Seed Team
