About Henry Field's
Henry Field's Seed & Nursery is a long-established mail-order seed and plant company founded in 1892 in Shenandoah, Iowa, offering vegetable and flower seeds, live plants, fruit trees, berry plants, bulbs, and garden supplies to home gardeners across the United States. The company operates under the Gurney's family of garden brands and shares catalog offerings with related Gurney's and other garden mail-order companies.
Their catalog covers vegetable garden staples—tomatoes, peppers, beans, squash, cucumbers—plus flower seeds, perennial plants, and fruit-producing plants including strawberries, blueberries, and fruit trees suited to home garden conditions. Henry Field's emphasis on proven garden performers selected for home garden success distinguishes their offering from specialty seed companies focused on unusual or heirloom varieties.
Henry Field's shares promotional events and catalog timing with affiliated Gurney's properties, with the strongest savings on seeds and plants arriving through seasonal catalogs and online promotional codes. Early ordering in winter secures the best plant selection for spring shipping, and end-of-season clearance events in late summer offer remaining inventory at reduced prices.
