Best source for bulk organic seeds for sprouting and storing?
Submitted by gratefulgraft on Fri, 09/26/2008 - 11:10
Does anyone have a favorite source for bulk sprouting seeds, non GM, and organic that you can tell me about? I have ordered heirloom garden seeds from http://www.survivalistseeds.com/ which is a great source and they also have a dvd for building a water filter. Thanks you for your information.

Does anyone know how to preserve seeds long term?
I would like to buy them and store them in a way that they will last years if necessary. Is that even possible?
One way

what foods they eat and what medicines they take,
their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state
as are the souls of those who live under tyranny."

What a great site
Thanks so much!
The Best Source For Any type of seed
is at this website : http://wholesaleplantstore.com/Store/Organic-Seeds
The people who sell the seeds are true enthusiasts and will help in any way they can.

Heirloomseeds.com
They have bulk ordering. They also have individual packs at about $1.50 each; certified organic at about $2.50 each....
Hope this helps...

I have found that I can bulk order beans and grain from my local health food store - and they do not charge me shipping! Check for any local cooperatives in your area as well.

One thought, you may want to start a "buyer's club" with others in your area to pool orders which will save on shipping costs.

Seeds
I just hope that people buying from survivalist seeds realize you can't just throw a seed into the ground come spring and expect a harvest in summer. Crops vary in planting times, light needs, soil requirements, etc.
Just a note --- if you don't want to deal with amending soil --- make raised beds. www.squarefootgardening.com is a good place to start. This site and books will help get the beginner gardener on the right track.
Excellent Suggestion
Just got the latest Mother Earth News and there was a nice article and photo of a beautiful (and productive) square-foot garden where the person just cut open the sides of soil bags (after laying htem on the ground) and planted in them directly. No raised beds were required.
I will be getting a copy of Square Foot Gardening soon. I think I may be doing it the hard way right now!
Thanks,
