Comments (92)I have seeds to send to you for the Newbie packets but I lost your address. I'm so sorry I haven't gotten them to you sooner, the holidays and Real Life happened and frankly, 2016 is for crap thus far, but I want to get these out to you since you very kindly sent me some seeds last years right after we moved. Please let me know where to send them and I'll get them out to you right away....See MoreNEWBIE SEED OFFER FOR DECEMBER 2016 - JANUARY 2017 ONLY
Comments (46)VERY INEXPENSIVE SEEDS. It always hurts financially to pay $5 for a packet of a few seeds, plus $5-8 postage if mail order. This seed distribution project of Val's is wonderful. And I want to introduce newbies to an additional source of great quality almost-free seed. There is a seed company called American that is always sold at Walmart and sometimes at dollar or discount stores. I have never understood how this company can make much profit because printing the paper seed packets probably costs more than they charge. Their seed packets are about 30-50 cents each. They only sell open-polinated, but often the best cultivars of the OPs. The seed packets are put out in Ohio in walmart in March, and generally sell out very fast. I buy all my herb seed from American at Walmart, most of my vegetables (other than tomatoes), and some flower seeds. I have bought this seed for many, many years, and have always been very hsppy with my plants. When I read about Val's wonderful project, I thought I would buy American seed next March to contribute. Then I realized that the postage would cost more than the price of seeds. So it would be less expensive for people to buy this seed themselves instead of paying more postage....See MoreNeed Help Obtaining Seeds - Just retired and rebuilding old farm

I plan to grow tomatoes, bell peppers, hot peppers, green beans, carrots, celery, lettuce, zucchini, yellow sqash, peas, salad greens, cantaloupe, strawberries, cucumbers and possibly other vegetables. I do plan on adding an indoor culinary herbal garden in pots....See Moreval (MA z6)
