With the “boom” of growing your own food taking root (geddit?! Ed) lately. There has been numerous questions directed towards me as to where to get seeds that you can grow year after year with out having to buy them every season.
To those that have asked, here is your solution.

Whilst the stock is being built with trades & donations. So far the bank stock has been built from acquisitions of seeds of about $10 USD a month.
There is more seeds to be added and to be grown out. At the end of next years growing season the list will be longer with more variety’s
This is just a short list of what is to be added in the future:
- Egyptian walking onions AKA Winter onions
- Silkleaf - tobacco
- Perique - tobacco
- Costoluto Genovese - tomato
- Royal Hillbilly - tomato
Primarily all the seeds that are distributed are Open Pollinated ,Organic or Heirloom seeds. GMO/GEO or Hybrid seeds are not wanted. We refuse to take them as a donation nor do we acquire them.
Every step is taken to ensure all fertilizers or pesticides are organic.
