Happy_Clam said: Hi! I just moved and don't have great seed storage. I have little boxes and bags, but Would it be better to keep those bags in a cabinet in my living room (about 65F), in the garage (unheated), or in the fridge (temp =??). Some people even freeze their native seeds, is that right?

Any guidance is appreciated, thanks!

The biggest danger imo is moisture.
I've stored my seeds refrigerated in Tuppperware with excellent results. I currently store them in a cabinet at 65 - 70⁰f . I don't know about storing garden seeds frozen, especially those native to regions that do not get frost. The temperature swings in my garage, making it a poor choice for seed storage. It is most important to keep seeds dry.
