Heritage Plants.
Ancestral Connection.

Kula means “family” or “ancestors” in Sanskrit.
At Kula Nursery we hope to honor and connect to our ancestors by growing, tending, and preparing heritage foods.

About us

We're a seasonal nursery growing 100% open-pollinated heritage plants. Our greenhouse is open to the public in the Spring (end of March-June). The rest of the year we grow out a selection of South Asian heritage seeds on our adjacent farm. Check out our seed store and Subscribe to our newsletter to hear about upcoming events!

What are Heritage Foods?

Heritage foods are foods that play a vital role in cultural traditions, rituals, and/or cuisines. Although they have been passed down from generation to generation, these foods are becoming less available due to large-scale agriculture and other systemic reasons.

In many cases it is up to small scale farmers and gardeners to tend to these varieties and pass on the cultural importance of these foods to future generations.

Beyond just being a fruit, vegetable or herb, these foods each hold an important story of tradition, culture, and place.
