Vegetable Selection

Here's the fun part! Look over the selection below, and try to narrow your choices to 6-8 vegetables, unless you want to contract for a larger garden. You can read up on each variety by entering the name in the search box at www.burpee.com, the Burpee seed company website.

Val, an experienced Minnesota home gardener, has selected these varieties based on her own positive experience growing them and on Burpee customer reviews.
