Why grow the same dull vegetables and herbs that fill every grocery store shelf? If you're putting in the effort and growing your own, make it something sensational!

There's a thrilling diversity of rare and unusual heirloom plants out there--a riot of beauty, color, and flavor that can only be experienced by growing your own. So saddle up and join the trail blazed by Mitch the Seed Hunter as he shows you how to source, grow, and enjoy the most amazing crops from around the world.

The antithesis of mass-produced hybrids and genetically modified seeds, heirloom crops provide a connection to the past, seeds that have been passed down through generations, rescued from oblivion, and preserved by a dedicated community of growers.

From Italian flat onions to pink broad beans, apple-sized melons beloved by Queen Anne to purple-and-white Gniff carrots from Switzerland (almost lost to extinction), and orange okra from Japan to ancient Aztec broccoli, Mitch shares his passion for growing them all and making the most of their incredible flavors.
