Billy’s Gardens was founded by Billy Allstot. Billy offers high-quality organic produce that is grown on his farms and in his greenhouses. Billy is a lifelong resident of beautiful Okanogan County in northeastern Washington, and a lifelong farmer. He was raised on a fruit ranch only a few miles from his current farm in Tonasket, Washington.
At age 20, Billy bought his first fruit farm. He started growing vegetables in 1972, to fill in the rows between the young apple trees. Read about Billy’s early farming years in this article that ran in the Wenatchee World on Sunday, June 24, 1973.
In 1984, Billy met Stephanie … who began raising flowers, herbs and greenhouse plants.
Today, Billy and Stephanie operate outside of Tonasket, Washington in the summer; and in California’s Imperial Valley in the winter.
Billy’s Gardens offers the best organic products to the greater Seattle area. We have a large selection of plants, herbs, flowers and produce available. Our varieties are proven winners because of our fertile, time-tested soil’s certified organic mixture.
Availability for plants is the 3rd week of March through the 15th of June. Our organically grown tomato and herb plants are available in the Seattle/Tacoma area at Whole Foods in Bellevue, Redmond, Roosevelt, West Lake, West Seattle and Interbay, at Central Coop, and Ravenna Gardens in University Village. In Wenatchee, our plants are available at Sav-Mart, and in Chelan at Red Apple Market.
