Shipping to Canada
February 24th - it appears Canada has implemented changes to the customs regulations regarding seeds. Until I can definitively confirm these changes, I have suspended accepting orders from Canada. All orders currently processing will ship. I will post an update when I get this sorted. I apologize for any inconvenience.
Please see International Shipping for countries other than Canada.
Shipping seeds across the US-Canada border has become increasingly challenging to the point that a number of seed companies (US or Canadian) simply do not accept international orders. I am willing to ship to Canada; however, once the package enters the delivery system, it is beyond my control.
I ship orders via the United States Postal Service (USPS) though in some cases I ship through UPS.
Please note for all international orders:
- I do not have plant health certificates or an export license
- Great Lakes Staple Seeds is not responsible for international shipments that are lost, stolen, or confiscated and will not issue a refund in such cases.
- You are responsible for any additional fees, duties or taxes related to international commerce.
- I cannot guarantee successful delivery but I do guarantee I will ship your order. To date though, I have not experienced any issues shipping orders to an address in Canada.
Please state in a note on the order processing page that you accept these conditions and terms.
Additionally, although the listed USPS delivery times are 6-10 business days, there is no guarantee that the shipment won't experience delays due to customs and Canadian Post.
USPS rates increased 24 January, 2021.
