About Plant

Our mission is to provide you with the highest quality and largest selection of locally grown plants. Come on in and shop our large selection of herbs. Need help? Any one of our Farmer John’s staff can assist you to help make the right selection for your home. 

Look for classic ‘Spearmint’, sweet ‘Pineapple’ and ‘Chocolate’, dwarf ‘Corsican’, and productive ‘Mint Julep’. ‘Peppermint’ is also available in our mosquito repellent herbs. These invasive perennials are best grown in containers on the porch or patio. Use fresh or dried with fruit, desserts and teas. Easy to grow and deters ants, aphids, flea beetles, squash bugs, mice, and deer.
