Welcome to the Millennium Farms website. Here you can find produce and vegetable and herb plants
like you remember from your family's garden years ago. Our motto is: "Where flavor comes first."
May 27, 2009 Update
We have a good supply of tomatoes, peppers, herbs and vegetable
starts, and also have plenty of Kozy Coats and our family-recipe fertilizer. We are out of the tomato cages and the red mulch
for the season. Also, at the nursery we can only take checks and cash, sorry no credit or debit cards at this time.
This is the last week for the nursery to be open for this season, and Sunday 5/31 will be the last day. Thanks
to all of our loyal customers for making this a great season!
Arkley's Take 1 - 2 in Territorial Seed Co. Tomato
Contest
Our heartiest congratulations go out to Tremaine and Gail Arkley, longtime Millennium Farms customers.
They entered, for the first time, the Northwest's largest tomato taste contest and took first and second place! Tremaine entered tomatoes from Sudduth's Brandywine (the ORIGINAL
strain) and, as you guessed, Gail won with the not-widely-known Pineapple. Both are outstanding beefsteak types, with
hit-you-between-the-eyes flavor. As Jeff Spicoli would say, 'Arkleys, that's Awesome, Totally Awesome!'. There's a great article in the 3/10/05 Oregonian about the Arkleys and the contest. THIS YEAR WE HAVE STARTS OF ALL THE WINNERS OF ALL OF THE TSCTT CONTESTS!
SEE THE TOMATO LIST PAGE FOR FURTHER INFO.

The 2004 AND 2005 TSTT winner, Pineapple. Yes they really are that big, and have that ohmigod flavor...
There was a great article in the 4/17/03 Oregonian's Garden Section/pullout on TOMATOES. There's some good hints in there,
as well as excellent info on some wonderful varieties that the good folks at OSU have given us. And, there's even a picture
of a Kozy Kote with your's truly....
We offer seasonal produce (see the Availability List) 52 weeks a year, and start from seed our large selection of those
delicious heirloom vegetable starts, with a few surprises too!
Some folks don't believe how much our plants grow. Below are some photos from Tom Lipman in Hillsdale which will show you
how fast (and how big) they grow... Thanks a lot Tom! And take a look at the last photo...all of that in JUST ONE DAY'S harvest!
