A decade is reasonable to expect. Seeds will loose about 1% germination
each year they are kept, meaning, that 90% will germinate after a
decade of storage.
How do I store these heirloom vegetable seeds?
Keep dark and dry, the opposite of what they need to grow- moisture and sunlight.
Will it help or harm the seeds if I freeze the seeds?
Freezing seeds risks damaging the cellular construct of the seed as moisture inside the seed expands as the ice expands.
How are your seeds packaged?
We package our heirloom and open pollinated seeds in acid free paper
envelopes designed for seeds. This is the traditional way to package
seeds for two hundred years. Never buy vegetable seeds that have been
packaged in mylar death coffin bags.
Can I store your heirloom seeds inside the box you ship in?
Yes, we hope that you do. Just keep the box of heirloom vegetable seeds
in a dry and dark place. Our box is a collectible designed by an award
winning designer. It is self locking with our copyrighted label on the
outside. Our 67 varieties of seeds are packed into two separate 100%
cotton bags to keep them orderly during shipping.
What is organic?
Organic seeds are seeds that have no history of being tainted by pesticides or herbicides.
What is all-natural?
Due to the government’s attempt to regulate the word- organic, the cost
and time required to get certification makes it only available to the
richest seed companies like Monsanto- (guess who wrote the organic bill,
yep, Monsanto). Many food and seed companies have been forced to use
the word- ALL NATURAL as a substitute.
What is heirloom?
There are several definitions. Most reliable sources define it as- any
vegetable that is not a hybrid, that has a history that can be traced
back more than fifty years.
What is open pollinated?
All heirloom vegetables are open pollinated and *most open pollinated vegetables are heirlooms.
What is hybrid?
Combining traits of at least two types in order to get produce with
traits that are more uniform and tougher skin. As a result, good taste
and often natural resistance to disease is lost.
What is rare seed?
Seeds that are not produced in mass volume for corporate farms.
Heirloom seeds are considered rare because only gardeners use them and
usually not farmers.
What is GMO?
Genetically Modified Organism. Example: Combining a vegetable like a
tomato with an animal like a fish in order to reduce loss to late Spring
freeze. Most of the food you consume has GMO in it because the federal
government has been bribed by Monsanto lobbyist not to force labeling of
GMO because health issues could be traced to GMOs.
