The plants on this world are not only amazing, but there are so many varieties. But that comes with a problem. There are so many seed providers you don't know which ones to choose from.
So today I'm going to talk about three seed providers and my experiences with the seeds. For ethical response see below:
http://sustainableseedco.com
This is my go-to website for heirloom seeds. They have a wide variety of seeds and most of them decently priced. The shipping was fast, I got the seeds about a week later. And I have had nothing but good things to say about these seeds. They sprouted fast, and the fruit & corn were surprisingly sweeter than the crops that came from the seeds I got at my hardware store. And to top it off, they gave us some free seeds for ordering over a dozen. That's always good, :-)
http://www.localharvest.org
This is kind of a sustainability site. Here you can look at all the markets in your area that offer organic & sustainable foods. But at the top where it says shop, you can click on that and look at their seeds that have been certified organic. The wait took a little while, but nonetheless, these guys grew really well and what I did eat tasted amazing. I say "what I eat," because the squirrels took a bunch of those seeds... and fruits.
http://rareseeds.com
This is actually a provider one of my friends showed me. I haven't ordered any seeds yet, but just by looking at the selection of seeds on the site I would have to say... there are a lot of seeds to choose from. Most of them are heirloom and the prices seem to be decent. I haven't compared them to Sustainable Seed yet, but I'll post about it when I do.
So this is my opinion on these three providers. And I'm curious, where do you buy your seeds and what has been your experience with the store/shipping of the seeds and growing them?

*None of the websites mentioned paid me to, nor asked me to talk about them. These are just my honest opinions about their products.
