Each year we select our heirloom vegetable seeds from the Seed Saver Exchange and start the seeds at our offsite greenhouse.  They are tended by our vegetable gardener, grown naturally without chemical fertilizers or pesticides, and brought to the Yard in time for your spring and summer planting. 

At Gethsemane you will find an array of vegetables as diverse as the Chicago population. We strive to provide the essential ingredients for Mexican, Asian, Latin and Eastern European cooking, as well as the traditional vegetable garden staples such as tomatoes, peppers, broccoli, cauliflower and cucumbers. Vegetables are available for purchase & planting from April through September. 

Our Herb Garden features an ever-expanding array of common and exotic herbs, in many varieties, produced by local growers who practice chemical-free growing. We take pride in our increasing reputation for providing the widest selection of rare herbs in the Chicago area, and will continue to seek out and supply unique herbs for our customers.
