    Default What are your favorite seed catalogs?

    I am sitting here thinking about my garden and how I want to change it for next year, and what to keep the same, and I decided to get some catalogs ordered while I was thinking of it.

    I'd love to know what your favorite catalogs are- not only for actually buying seeds, but also for ideas. I'd like to order a couple more.

    My favorites are Johnny's Selected Seeds and Territorial, for ideas and some unusual varieties, and Seeds of Change for organic seeds. They can all be found right near the top of a Google search for seed catalogs. I don't really have a favorite for flowers, but if you do, please share. (I currently only receive Breck's.)

    What are your favorites?

    1. Because their seeds are good for my neck of the woods.
    2. Because they give good information about the varieties (such as which are better for freezing or canning or fresh eating).

    I have three favorites

    Burpee --- I like this catalog for the photos and number of varieties and descriptions

    Baker Creek seeds --- http://www.rareseeds.com/index.php?page=magazine
    This place is located in south central Missouri (Mansfield) and sells heirloom seeds. Someday I would love to visit their facility.

    Seeds Savers Exchange in Decorah, IA -- www.seedsavers.org which also seels heirloom seeds

    No lie can live forever -- Martin Luther King Jr

    What the people want is very simple - they want an America as good as its promise. -- Barbara Jordan
