Garden Gifts, Heirloom Seed Gift Sets from Kansas

The gardener in your life already has opinions about their soil. Strong ones. What they probably don't have is a pumpkin they've never grown before, and that's where we come in.

Autumn Prairie grows heirloom pumpkin and squash seeds that you genuinely can't find at the hardware store. Rare French heirlooms. Ancient Native American varieties. Asian cultivars prized for flavor over appearance. All tested in our Zone 6b Kansas gardens before they make the catalog. Paired, when the occasion calls for it, with prairie coffee.

Every order ships from Newton, Kansas via USPS. Seeds are packed for long-term viability, they store well, so there's no pressure to plant immediately.

For the Sunflower Grower

The Mammoth Sunflower & Squash Kit combines towering Mammoth Grey sunflowers with heirloom squash, a full season of dramatic color and edible yield in one box.

Individual Seed Varieties as Gifts

Sometimes the best gift is a single remarkable variety. A few favorites:

  • Musquée de Provence, The pumpkin French chefs reach for. Stunning appearance, exceptional flavor.
  • Black Futsu, A rare Japanese heirloom with warted dark skin and chestnut-like flavor. Nobody has grown this one before.
  • Seminole Pumpkin, For the gardener tired of losing plants to borers. This one fights back.
  • Tahitian Melon Squash, Giant, unusual, and surprisingly easy to grow. A conversation starter in any garden.

Prairie Coffee
