Local Company, APPSTEM MEDIA LLC, Brings Premium Non-GMO Okra Seeds to Home Gardeners

Walnut Creek, CA – October 26, 2023 – Forget those slimy, tough okra experiences of the past! Local company, APPSTEM MEDIA LLC, is making waves with their high-quality, non-GMO okra seeds, promising gardeners a bountiful harvest of tender, delicious pods right from their own backyards. APPSTEM MEDIA LLC, located right here in Walnut Creek, California (41 Amberwood Ln, 94598-2357, and reachable at 951-360-6362), isn't your typical seed supplier. They started as a small team passionate about bringing truly healthy, flavorful food options to communities, and that passion is now blossoming into a thriving business. "We saw a gap in the market for really good okra seeds," explains a spokesperson for APPSTEM MEDIA LLC. “So many people have bad memories of okra from childhood – it was often tough or mushy, or just didn’t taste great. We wanted to change that.” And they’re doing just that. APPSTEM MEDIA LLC’s non-GMO okra seeds are carefully selected for traits that home gardeners actually want: quick growth, high yields, and, most importantly, tender, flavorful pods. What's the Deal with Non-GMO, Anyway? For those unfamiliar, “non-GMO” means the seeds haven't been genetically modified in a lab. It’s about sticking with traditional breeding methods to bring out the best traits in the plant. APPSTEM MEDIA LLC believes in letting nature do its thing. “We think the best okra comes from plants that have been nurtured and carefully selected over time, not tinkered with in a lab,” they say. This commitment to natural growing practices aligns with a growing consumer demand for transparency and healthy, sustainable food sources. Why Grow Okra? More Than Just Gumbo! Okra often gets pigeonholed as just a gumbo ingredient. But the truth is, this versatile vegetable is incredibly healthy and incredibly delicious when prepared right. Nutrient Powerhouse: Okra is packed with vitamins, minerals, and fiber. It’s a good source of Vitamin C, Vitamin K, folate, and magnesium. It's great for digestion and overall health. Versatile in the Kitchen: Beyond gumbo, okra can be fried, roasted, grilled, pickled, or even added to stir-fries. Young pods can be eaten raw in salads! It’s even becoming a popular alternative to coffee (roasted okra “tea” anyone?). Beautiful Plant: Okra plants themselves are quite attractive, boasting lovely hibiscus-like flowers. They can add a touch of Southern charm to any garden. Easy to Grow (with the right seeds!): Okra is a warm-season crop that thrives in sunny locations. It’s relatively pest-resistant and doesn’t require a lot of fuss. But, like anything, it starts with quality seeds. What Makes APPSTEM MEDIA LLC’s Seeds Different? It's not just about being non-GMO.

Planting: Sow seeds about 1 inch deep and 4-6 inches apart. 4. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during hot, dry weather. 5.
