SAVE YOUR GARDEN SEED FROM YEAR TO
YEAR!
Saving & storing your own seeds will enable you to always have a food source.
Keep on hand:
Seed varieties that have proved themselves to produce satisfactory yeilds in your garden.
Keep in mind seeds that are the most disease resistant.
Choose family favorites.
Buy non-hybrid, organic seeds whenever possible from a trustworthy seed company. Remember that hybrid seeds will not reproduce. You need seeds that will bare year after year!
SEED STORAGE
These instructions were taken from the "Southern Exposure Seed Exchange 2018 Catalog". Thanks to these folks for making this venture a plain & simple one!!
Most seeds can be stored for more than a year if kept clean, cool, dry, and out of light. Some seeds (onions, parsnips, salsify, spinach, super sweet corn) are only good for a year unless stored well. For long-term storage, store packets in a large container (such as an airtight plastic container or a glass canning jar with a 2 piece lid) and tightly seal for storage in your refrigerator or freezer. (Be careful to let the container warm to room temperature before opening.)
