Welcome to Ark Institute

Welcome to The Ark Institute's online order department.  You may have heard that water filters and seeds at some places are back ordered for months.  That is NOT the case at The Ark Institute!  Simply click on the links to the items you are interested in ordering, send us your order, and it will be on its way!  We are excited to tell you that we are currently very well stocked with non-hybrid, non-GMO, heirloom seed.  There are currently NO out-of-stocks on our seed package listings, so order quickly to ensure you have your seed before future shortages.  As you might expect, demand is very high given the current state of the weather and world, and supplies globally are diminishing.

Of course you can still order by telephone if you like.  Call toll free:  1-800-255-1912.  If we're on another line, please leave your name and number so we can call you back.

Or send a money order and your order to:  The Ark Institute, PO Box 293, Westlake, OR 97493
