If you are like me, you don't propagate all the garden seeds that you plant each year so you wind up buying either on line or at a seed store. We have a local "Feed and Seed" that has very good prices but not the largest assortment. I found a website that had surprisingly low prices for even...

With the long dark days of winter upon us, folks begin thinking of spring and the approaching garden season. Invariably, the question arises; Where do you get your seeds? Here is a list of 42 different seed suppliers in one convenient place. I believe there is something here for everyone. Seed...

Hello all, RON L here While I often Buy and ensure the Seed I buy and Trade for is Heirloom and Non-Hybrid, these shaky timkes got me thinking? The question of folks, seed stocks and grows of Plants in winter might seem a little odd? I've had time to reflect on my preps and despite some...

OK ... bear with me. I have always just bought plants at Home Depot ... This year I decided to start some seeds but my home is older and very drafty. No place really warm enough to expect any kind of consistent results, mostly because we keep the heat on 65 ... I am too danged cheap to buy...

DH was wondering today whether there is a difference between the Seed corn that we have stockpiled and the feed corn we purchase for the animals (pigs, cows, horses) and whether we can plant that. We recently found somebody who has a silo filled with whole corn that they are selling for 10.00...

My friend who just became a full-time prepper is looking for a special squash/melon seed. She said while living in Russia, her neighbors grew a squash like plant. She says it has a long shelf life and would be a great item to add to her preps. She said it grew up to about 20 lbs. When young...

We had a small garden the last couple years. We just picked up a few packs of home depot seeds, but I'd like to step it up and get some heirloom plants so we can learn to keep the seeds. I'd like to get an affordable $20/$50 assortment of basic plant seeds like string beans, peas, tomatoes...

I wrote this post for another message board I frequent but felt that people here could also benefit. If these items are properly packaged in 5 gallon buckets in sealed Mylar bags with O2 absorbers the following shelf lives can be applied. Once packed, they must be stored in a dry location where...

MAKING A SURVIVAL SEED CONTAINER Greetings! I have been curious for a while about these survival seed packages and seed collections that companies and organizations have been selling. In the spirit of self-sufficency, I asked myself "WHY COULDN'T I MAKE MY OWN?" After a little bit of...

This week Home Depot is having a seed sale. When you buy one pack of seeds, you'll get one of equal or lesser value free. Check your area, great deal, stock up for next year or for this years garden.

Survival Seeds - The Survival Seed Bank Provides A Lifetime Food Solution For Families.

Most people are concerned about the economy at the time, but I have more concern about our food supply. The seeds that we grow and eat are genetically modified and the companies (not pointing fingers) decide to screw up the seed and patent it for profit. But when the seeds kill themselves (they...
