The Happy Cat Story

history

The ideas behind Happy Cat Organics, LLC got started about 12 years ago; Tim worked on an organic farm in rolling valleys of Pennsylvania that are framed by the Blue Mountains. Someone passed him a black tomato and told him to eat it, at first he was going to throw it, but reluctantly took a bite. Sun warm both he and the tomato, Tim was transfixed by the sheer epiphany in his mouth and running down his chin. He was hooked. Then in 1996 Tim’s grandfather was killed in a car accident and a huge jar of beans got passed from his very large truck patch to Tim’s weedy attempt at be Elliot Coleman. He grow the beans for a few years, but never knew what He had. Until reading Heirloom Gardening by William Woys Weaver, Tim contacted him, William lived in the suburbs and Tim lived in Philadelphia, He ended up working for him for awhile and learning much more then just about my beans.

Tim and Amy started growing every heirloom or open pollinated seed they could get there green thumbs on; the more they grow the more they wanted to share these fascinating plants with other people. So started Happy Cat Organics, LLC; named after those little cat statues with one paw raised that you see in the window of Chinese food restaurants. Good Luck.
