    Hi – Does anyone at the Farmer’s Market ever do any sort of seed exchange/sale?

    I’m hoping to do some gardening this year (first year of homeownership!!!) and would like to use some “heirloom” or at least non-genetically modified seeds and some that are known to do well in this climate (I need all the help I can get!)

    Thanks!

    Hi– a good source for locally hearty veggies (and a few other plants) is the Tilth Organic Plant Sale— first weekend in May (Wallingford, not here on the westside). Everything there would be great for your garden (all NW grown) and could lead to great seeds next year. Also check out: Abundant Life Seeds…
