That's part of why I keep a link to a "Seed Library" finding website in my signature block.

http://www.seedlibrarian.com/

They say:
"Based on the model of a book library, seed libraries allow people to check out seeds to grow. At the end of a growing season, one checks in an equal or greater amount of the borrowed seed after harvest. This helps to locally adapt seeds and ensure a supply of viable, fresh seeds for all in the community. "

Thank you! This is new information for me. Seed libraries may well be the wave of the future. We can't let Monsanto win this war. MR
