Best source(s) for “heritage” non-hybrid seeds?

For larger quantities and a huge selection of varieties I buy here:

Hazards Greenhouse

For common varieties at economical prices check out your local Wal-Mart.

Question about the heirloom seeds —how long would those packets last? Is there a special way to make them last longer? Freezing, storing in cool, dark place? suggestions?

” For common varieties at economical prices check out your local Wal-Mart. “

Our screwed-up Walmart has already taken down its seed displays - guess they’ve never heard of “Fall Crops”, even though we live in a 2-growing-season area...

(BTW - is it just this area, or are turnip seeds in short supply all over?? I’ve been to every store that I know of that sells garden supplies, or even seeds, all over Southern NM, and nobody has them... Does anybody know if this is a local hiccup, or is it a national phenomenon???)
