For the past several years, I have found it more enjoyable to share and trade with others. Access to far greater varieties and the price is definitely right. Thumbs up

Do you mean online, or in a garden club somewhere? Just curious where people trade seeds.

There are all sorts of ways to trade seeds, of course; but there are seed swaps happening right here on NGA -- check for them under "Tools & Apps" at the top of the page Smiling

In addition to what Sandy said, I have traded and sent and received seeds here and on several groups on Facebook.

I just moved. I need to change my address for my favorite companies and sign up for some catalogs! You mention some I haven't heard of, so this will be fun.

I didn't know there were seed groups on facebook. Feel free to treemail me with favorites!

I am sitting out of swaps this season, but have plenty of seeds. I saved seeds from my perennials in case they don't survive the move. I ordered some orange sunflowers from SSE end of season sale. Such pretty flowers for such a good cause. Some other things jumped in the envelop somehow.

Crazy, I know, but it makes me happy.

I call the Baker Creek catalog "seed porn". Those pictures are amazing. Worth it just to drool over the photography.

The only problem I have with Baker is that they are chincy on Zone info for some of their ornamentals. Not all - but some. They are a great resource and if you can only get one catalog, they are the one to get. A great Missouri company. Thumbs up

Andi -- good to "see you" back here! Smiling

Pinetree has a great variety of seeds and smaller packet sizes with smaller prices than some of the others.

Hmmm... not sure why my link isn't working, but it's superseeds.com
