I spent some time last week going through and packaging up all the seeds I have saved so far this year, and I realized – like probably many of you – that I have way more than I can possibly sow next year (or in the next five years, in some cases!). One of the most important things you can do as a gardener is to save seeds (and share them if you’re able to do so). It is not only rewarding, but essential to the sustainability and preservation of future crops – not to mention maintaining diversity. And it doesn’t matter if the plants are “common” – everything counts…or will, someday.
So…I have a bunch of surplus seeds I’d like to share with you, if you’re interested. These selections completely fall into the category of “common” plants. But it’s nice to get free seeds! Right?
This is what I have to offer:
CALENDULA
LUPINE
(Perennial, hardy to zone 3)
ROCK SOAPWORT
(Perennial, hardy to zone 3) – you can read my blog entry about this plant here)
CHERVIL
(Herb)
All of my plants are grown chemical-free. And while I did my best to ensure proper collection and storage, there is always a risk that some of the seeds may not germinate. I’ve tried to put a good amount in each package to hopefully combat that, and you’ll have to keep them stored properly until you decide to use them.
Unfortunately, I can’t send them to locations outside of Canada – I wish I could! But if you live in this country, click on my Contact Form and write your name and mailing address, as well as the types of seeds you’re interested in. I have a very small gardening space so I only have limited quantities, but I’ll try to get you what you want. I will mail them out as soon as I can – you should get them within about two weeks.
Enjoy! 🙂
