Most seed companies purchase all their seed from other companies and from growers. They are removed from the growing experience even if they have highly qualified staff to help you with your needs. Southwest Seed is similar to a small handful of other seed companies in that we have our own farm where we grow approximately 40 different species of grasses and forbs (wildflowers) each year.
We purchase seed from other growers to make up the full complement of our seed offerings: local genotypes, cover crops, native vs. introduced, dryland vs. irrigated, etc.
