Saving Seeds

It’s that time of the year…time to save your seeds for next year’s bounty! Save seeds only from heirloom or open-pollinated varieties. Hybrids will produce plenty of seeds, but the plants growing from them won’t be the same as the ones you had last year. You might get just about anything.  For information on how to save specific crop seeds, check out the International Seed Saving Institute.   Saving seeds is inexpensive and fun, and ensures you get your favorite produce year after year.
