About Us

We are farmers in Half Moon Bay California where we grow for Farmers’ Markets, Local Restaurants, wholesale Produce Markets, and Corner Grocery Stores.  We only use Franchi Seeds! Why? Because they germinate very well, grow extremely vigorous plants, and the plants produce excellent tasting vegetables. That should speak for itself! Daylight Farms distributes the exceptional heirloom vegetable, herb and flower seeds of Franchi Sementi spa of Bergamo, Italy; seedsmen for more than 225 years.  Franchi specializes in traditional heirloom Italian varieties, selected over the years for great taste and productivity.  These fine seed packs are hermetically sealed to ensure freshness.  95% of our seeds are grown in Italy; NONE are genetically engineered.  Organic seeds are certified by the Italian Certifying organization in Milan.  Every seed pack has English language labels with variety description and growing instructions.  Each package contains photos and symbols representing your zone and the months of the year to plant and how to plant them.   We so believe in Franchi seeds that if Franchi does not have certain varieties, we do not sell them.Packs are large and typically have 2 to 10 times the number of seeds in the typical American seed packet (i.e.:  mixed lettuce has 10 gr @ 4500 seeds – that’s a lot of salad mix!).  They also have our Dayligt Farms unconditional guarantee.  If you are not satisfied, simply notify us.  We will send you replacement seed at no cost to you.
