Charles Hart Seed Company
Description

The Chas. C. Hart Seed Company was founded in 1892 by Mr. Charles C. Hart who had been connected with the Johnson & Robbins Company for fourteen years. He started a small consignment package seed business, using the back kitchen of his home as a packing room, warehouse, and office. At that time there were five seed firms in business in Wethersfield, this venture being the sixth.

In 1894, Mr. Hart entered into a partnership with Mr. Frank J. Wells, establishing Hart, Wells & Company. They purchased the general wholesale seed business of Egbert Decker on Marsh Street in Wethersfield and moved their operations there for a time. As business increased, more room was needed so the company acquired the offices and warehouses of the former Johnson & Robbins Company on Main Street.

A mail order department was established in 1913. In 1916 Mr. Hart purchased Mr. Wells interest in the business, and Mr. Hart’s three older sons became associated with the firm.

Over the years, Hart’s Seeds grew, acquiring several seed companies in the process. In 1922, the fifty-year-old business of E.M. Lyman & Son of Springfield Massachusetts was purchased and moved to Wethersfield. During that same year, the youngest of Mr. Hart’s four sons joined the company. In 1924 the package seed business of Robert M. Reeves & Company of New York City was bought.

Other seed businesses acquired included the Budd D. Hawkins Seed Company of Reading Vermont in 1952, the S.D. Woodruff & Son Company of Orange Connecticut in 1958, and the packet seed business of T.W. Wood & Sons of Richmond Virginia in 1962.

The wood frame buildings of the Hart Seed Company were destroyed by a fire in 1943, and were replaced with a brick office-warehouse complex at the same location on Main Street in historic Old Wethersfield Connecticut.

Today, the company is owned and operated by members of the fourth, and fifth generations of the Hart family. The Hart’s oversee the production and distribution of packet seeds, bulk vegetable and flower seed, lawn seed, fertilizers and other landscape products to independent dealers, farmers, golf courses, and landscape professionals throughout the Northeastern United States.

We carry a large selection of grass seed mixtures that include bentgrass, bermudagrass and perennial ryegrass.

That is why we offer custom blends of grass seed and fertilizer that meet the individual needs of our customers.

Here at Newsom Seed, our Maryland wholesale grass seeds use only the finest equipment, which is used to clean and mix the seed components. We are one of the largest seed blending facilities located on the East Coast and the bulk of our business comes from our wholesale customers that take advantage of our 50-lb. to 1,000-lb. bulk bags. In addition to our bulk grass seed in Maryland, we also carry a full line of Maryland wholesale fertilizer. Similar to our grass seed mixtures, our fertilizer selections can be custom blended depending on your specifications.

We are proud to offer a comprehensive line of Maryland wholesale pesticides as well, with a wide variety of name brand and generic selections. We have extended our pesticide products to include many generic products, which are economical without compromising quality.
