Manhattan Farms was born in 1987 in the kitchen of its founder, Leslie Scrimshaw. It thrived in the concrete jungle of downtown Vancouver, to an acreage in the BC interior and then onto High River Alberta. It was with mixed feelings she decided to give up her business. Being unable to continue the day-to-day the operation, due to her battle with MS. This is where we came in; my husband and I purchased Manhattan Farms in March of 2005.We have always had a fondness for gardening but mostly flowers in the past and growing the vegetables just seemed like a natural progression to us.  Learning from Leslie about 'Heirloom' and 'Open Pollinated Seeds' has given us more of a desire to grow and save our own seeds.  This is the direction that Manhattan Farms will be heading in the future.
