Thanks Tones! My father and I were just discussing our gardens this weekend and where we were going to get our seeds from since our usual seed store just closed down. :(

Check out www.ABCeeds.com.

They offer both hybrid and heirloom seed packs.

A good vegetable pack enough to plant 2500 sq ft is $30.

I like it that those seeds are packaged so they can be buried and last for many many years. tones (If they are just in bags..they are only good for about a year)

We're working on an open source seed bank like this at Factor e Farm, along with much more. Check out the latest Distillations episode at the OpenFarmTech.org (http://openfarmtech.org) blog (http://openfarmtech.org/weblog/?p=506).

That's cool. I thought the subject was going to be about the huge doomsday seed vault Rockefeller and Bill Gates funded up in Svalbard. Give that a google if you like.

I'm hoping to get into gardening myself. I'd like to get to a point where I not only stock up (I want to learn how to preserve) on foods for me and my family but also be able to turn a profit.
