How long will my package take to arrive?

All shipments are shipped via Canada Post – Average transit times are 5-10 days, depending on location in Canada. More information can be found on the Canada Post website.

Unfortunately, due to higher than normal volumes, Canada Post has been experiencing some delays in those proposed timelines. We appreciate your patience as carriers and couriers try to keep shipments moving relative to market demands.  Should your order take longer than 14 days from its ship date, please feel free to contact us regarding a replacement at sales@zappaseeds.com



Can I track my order?

No, unfortunately, we use general postage mail so we are not able to provide general tracking information. If you experience issues receiving your order past the expected timelines posted by Canada Post, please contact sales@zappaseeds.com for added assistance.



What are my payment options?

You can pay via credit card or through PayPal. You do not need to have a PayPal account in order to checkout with PayPal  - there is a ‘checkout as guest’ option available.



Do you ship to the USA?

No, unfortunately, we do not provide shipping outside of Canada at this time.  We do provide shipping across all Canadian Provinces.



Where are you located?

Zappa Seeds is a Canadian company. All orders are shipped out of Toronto, Ontario.



I want to do a bulk order and be able to choose my own varieties, can I do that?

Absolutely! You can select and process your bulk order online through the website. To follow, please email your order reference number and a list of your desired varieties and quantities to sales@zappaseeds.com. We can only provide seeds that are shown on the website at the time of order placement. 



I bought some seeds and a few didn’t germinate? 

We do our best at Zappa Seeds Inc to provide our customers with the most ideal guidelines and instructions for a productive yield of our garden seeds year after year. Every packet is adorned with a planting guide specific to the seed contained within and our complimentary website (www.zappaseeds.com) is available with additional resources and support to help ensure your planting success.  With that in mind, there are many elements that lend to the positive growth and yield of a seed such as weather, soil, technique, etc., which are not of the direct control of Zappa Seeds Inc. and to which we cannot be held responsible. Should you find yourself in a predicament wherein a Zappa Seeds Inc. product has been proven unsatisfactory, within one year from the date of purchase, Zappa Seeds Inc will replace your product at no added cost to you, including the cost of shipping.

How many seeds will my package contain?

When will my order be processed?
