nmchick Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Good quality heirloom seeds (and others). VERY LOW prices because they're a co-op. You can download their catalog. It has good info on growing in the catalog. Fedco Seeds www.fedcoseeds.com Also Seeds Trust. They have heirloom and native seeds, including siberian tomatoes, the only ones I can reliably ripen in my climate. (Some pieces of New Mexico are cold!) www.seedstrust.com Quote Link to post
Leah Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 My favorite. I like the estimate of percentage of germination information, as well as hints to get a better rate of germination. When they say you get 90 seeds or more, you darn well get more! - J. L. HUDSON, SEEDSMAN http://www.jlhudsonseeds.net/VegetablesA-D.htm quote:Offered here are only open-pollinated, non-F-l hybrid, non-patented vegetable seeds. I stress traditional and heirloom varieties, and have noted in the descriptions how long many kinds have been cultivated.:unquote - I have bought from this one in the past, very nice folks. http://www.territorialseed.com/prod_detail_list/263 Quote Link to post
Andrea Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I HIGHLY recommend www.bountifulgardens.org , especially for those interested in herbs. They also have some really interesting perennial greens that I've been experimenting with. For those familiar with John Jeavons, this is the company he is affiliated with and their entire focus is sustainability. Quote Link to post

Aint2nuts Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Originally Posted By: Fritz_Monroe I recommend Southern Exposure Seed Exchange I just got a lot of seeds from someone who traded me for soap, from this company.
