Good seed sources

by Bobbi Chukran

Mornin’ gardeners! About this time of year, the seed catalogs start pouring in, and I love sitting beside the fire (when it’s not 80-degrees) searching through them. It’s a peaceful, zen kinda thing with me. Anyway, I thought I’d set up a resource page with a few of my favorite online sites on it. As I’m sure you know, there are millions of online sellers of gardening seeds, supplies, etc. but not all of them carry stuff for organic gardening.

Here’s just a few to get you started. A lot of the garden companies will send free catalogs if you contact them through their web pages, too.

Still watching for those basil seeds to pop up, no sign of that yet. You’ll be the first to know when I see them!

Dig it!

    My brother is addicted to Irises. If you ever have a yen for Irises, I can point you to a couple of great catalogs.

    Thanks, Elisa. I have some irises growing here, but thankfully insects never bother them. I’d like to add more when I build more beds.
