Gijiu Kitazawa worked many years as an apprentice for a seed company in Japan prior to starting Kitazawa Seed Company in San Jose in 1917. At this time, Kitazawa Seed Company sold all kinds of seeds from do-mestic and foreign sources as well as their own line of Asian vegetables seeds sold primarily to customers who wanted to grow Asian vegetables in order to prepare traditional Japanese dishes. They used the familiar manila packets with green ink that they use today. Gijiu built a thriving bulk seed business in the developing farming areas of California and Oregon selling to predominantly Japanese-American farmers.

From 1942 to 1945 Kitazawa Seed Company was forced to abandon the business due to WWII. The Kitazawa family, along with all other Japa-nese-Americans, were moved and put into Relocation Camps during that time. Gijiu restarted the business after the war. Many of his customers had relocated due to land ownership changes. This is when Kitazawa Seed Company began selling and shipping seeds across the United States.

American taste buds and produce now reflect the diversity of our popula-tion. Once exotic sounding vegetables like edamame, nappa, daikon and kabocha have become a part of our kitchens and gardens.

Kitazawa Seeds proudly continues to offer the highest quality Asian seeds to delight the diverse palates of its customers. They sell over 500 seed varieties of traditional Japanese heirloom vegetables and Asian vegeta-bles popularly found in farmers’ markets, specialty grocery stores and restaurants.
