I am providing a cost effective way for the home gardener and homesteader to grow non-GMO plants at a reasonable price. There are people out there that are using my photos and descriptions to sell my products on outside selling websites at inflated prices (sometimes 300% – 400%). They then ask that no invoice be sent to hide what they paid for the items. They are selling my company name & my products without my permission. I sell exclusively here and only sell my products at the price listed here. For Buyer protection and to protect the integrity of my business and products, all orders will be sent with an invoice clearly listing the price of each item purchased.
