Seasonal Summer Hours
We are happy to announce our new summer seasonal hours for June, July and August will be every Thursday and Friday from 3 to 6.
Come by for produce, plants, flowers and advice!
Hattie’s Garden is a small market garden on Kendale Rd. in Lewes, DE. Please find our home and garden by the number on our mailbox during designated hours only. The garden and greenhouse are behind our home and all produce for sale is located in our large garage area. Enter the garage through the door on the side of the garage just behind the house.
To visit us at an alternative time, please contact Hattie Hattie to make other arrangements.
In addition, we can always be found at the Historic Lewes Farmers Market (HLFM) every Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon. The HLFM is held on the grounds of the Lewes Historical Society, Third and Shipcarpenter Streets, except for 6/27, 7/11 & 8/1, when it is located at the Shields Elementary School.
We make announcements of any changes in our normal schedule each week through our newsletter, as well as letting you know what is available and any other news.

Plants for Your Garden
We continue to offer the nicest plants available at this time of year. We plant new seeds and grow new plants all spring and we are displaying our final planting of many of our vegetables such as , peppers and eggplants.
We now have plenty of basil and still have lots of other herbs available.
We have a full line of our zinnias which include cutting zinnias at several heights & our bedding zinnias. We also have a nice selection of French open-pollinated marigolds, also in various colors and heights.
If you’d like to grow your own pot of mojito-style mint, come by for a free bare-rooted stem, place it in your own potting soil in a pot and watch it grow! We will be glad to help you get started.
