Sunday Seed Spotlight: Cubit's Organics

This Sunday's spotlight is on Cubits based out of Toronto, ON.


You can learn more about Cubit's by clicking here (They have a great "about us" page, as best told by them). They are based out of Toronto and sell a delicate collection of ethical and organic seeds via etsy (view the shop here). The business is very much a hand-made and custom experience, seeds are collected and packaged by hand and with care. I first discovered Cubit's when I searched "seeds" on etsy. Etsy is a great place to go looking for that special handmade gift and I really appreciate a homegrown small business. Each seed type is packaged within a brown paper seed envelope with one of the best seed package logos I've ever seen. A yellow lab holding a carrot, simple, cute, sleek, I'm sold! They have great customer reviews and just hit 10,000 sales on etsy.


They have a great selection of vegetables and herbs to choose from, there is something available for each level of gardener, including discount deals on packs of seeds, great for the beginner gardener. I bought a few interesting veggies for my collection including the crazy Reisetomate heirloom tomato, Zapotec Pleated tomato and White Queen tomato. I also picked up a Black Futsu Futzu edible pumpkin.
They also have a great idea, where you can buy
a subscription to "The  Organic Seed of the Month Club",
or the double seed of the month club! What a great gift idea
(That an a gardening magazine subscription)!

The final thing that has me sold and in love with cubit's is the great photography linked to each product.   They are modern, high-quality and realistic. The photographer certainly has the right eye, and these photos are a great marketing strategy. It's also really nice to support a more local seed source. I can't wait to test out my seeds, and see where Cubit's goes in the future!
