Welcome to Fruition!
We believe each seed, like each of us, is in the world to change the world.
We believe Black Lives Matter 🧡
In the heart of the Finger Lakes of western New York, Fruition shares organic, regionally adapted seeds as well as the tools, inspiration & insight for us all to thrive.
Our Why
We love food. We love people. We love growing food, nourishing community and celebrating resilience with relationship and reciprocity at the center. Caring for our community, celebrating our ancestors & nourishing all generations of all species to come inspires us to jump out of bed each and every day.
Our Seeds
When people ask if we have children, we say, ‘yes, and great-great-great grandchildren! And they grow us more than we grow them.’
Most sincerely, these seeds are our family.
Well-adapted to thrive in our short seasons, our organic seeds have remarkably early maturity and many share extraordinary cold hardiness as well as disease resistance. They also thrive well outside our bioregion, learn more here!
And are they delicious? Why else would we even share them!
And Friends, all our seeds are open-pollinated varieties for you to save and share, except for one F1 tomato, Summer Sweetheart. We celebrate and share both historical heirlooms as well as develop our own varieties with our community, as heirlooms of future generations.
We grow about sixty percent of our seed on our farm, sourcing the balance from organic growers, mostly in the Northeast, who share our vision for regional adaptation. We’re building a map to celebrate them all, stay tuned!
The Land We Grow On
~ the land that grows us ~
We grow on 24 organic acres in what is now known as Naples on the southern edge of Canandaigua Lake, in the heart of the New York Finger Lakes. We ​humbly acknowledge we occupy the ancestral and treaty lands of the Haudenosaunee Seneca People. This land has shown us the gift of community, connection, and reverence. May we continue to seek guidance from the elders and land-keepers that have been nurturing the biodiversity of this region for countless generations. Hope to see you here one day!
Whoever you are, wherever you are, thank you for joining us on the journey! Whether you’ve sown ten or ten thousand or zero seeds in your life, we’re grateful to do our work for you & with you.
