About Walnut Creek Seeds
Remembering Dave Brandt, 1947-2023
Dave Brandt was a pioneer of no-till farming and cover crops. For decades he opened the Brandt farm in Carroll, Ohio to anyone who wanted to learn, and shared what he knew with farmers, ranchers and gardeners across the country.
His family carries on Walnut Creek Seeds and the soil health work he loved.
Our mission is to promote soil health and improved land management practices through the use of cover crops.
While a large body of work exists focusing on cover crops in conjunction with commodity grain crops; these practices and principles can be used by everyone concerned with healthy soils, whether a rancher, crop farmer, or backyard gardener.
This is a family affair built around Dave Brandt's 35+ years of work in no-till and cover crop conservation farming and our desire to see these practices flourish.
We serve ranchers, farmers, larger-scale vegetable growers and backyard gardeners with both single species seed and diverse mixes. Most of our products are organic-grower friendly.
Our garden mixes are pre-packaged with inoculant to maximize nitrogen fixation of the legumes.
