Planters Seed & Spice Co

This unique company was founded in 1924 by German immigrant Henry Wertheim as a Commission House, selling farm and garden seed. Farmers would bring their produce to the Historic City Market, and on their way they would leave an order for fresh seed at Planters. Planters would complete their orders for pick up on their way home.

In 1928, Planters moved into the building at 513 Walnut. This building was constructed in the early 1870’s. Over the years Planters has expanded into five adjoining buildings. Many items have been added to satisfy the customer needs. One item was fresh bulk spices, something farmers needed because of their distance from stores. The same tradition of bulk spices, seeds, coffee, teas and many other items still exist today.
