Goodness! Didn't realize this thread was still going. Now I have to get busy and catch up! Haven't heard the rumor you speak of, but know in this area heritage seeds are popular. The company I spoke of is Fedco Seeds out of Waterville, Maine. Have purchased seeds from them for 10 plus years. They contract with local growers to get their seeds in quantity and sell at very good prices. Sometimes I get seeds without the quality I expect, but 95% of the time I am pleased. I know personally some of the growers that Fedco buys from so don't anticipate Monsanto putting Fedco out of business right off. I could go on and on about my seed-saving techniques but don't want to hog the band-width. I believe anyone could find Fedco on the internet.

Welcome back, I hope you will talk about how you save seeds, there were questions on seed saving earlier, and I am not the one to answer them, as yes, I do save seeds, but not properly.

The wider variety of information posted here, the better it will be for all.

Granny has single-handedly kept this thread going. RKBA Democrat periodically points people to it, that’s how I found it. I was overwhelmed! I hope you do post your seed-keeping techniques. It’s an important skill that most folks don’t have, and it used to be the backbone of farming. Everyone can contribute something!
