• Survival Seeds –

Look for heirloom survival seeds, which you can be assured are organic and from a good line of well producing plants.

• Biodynamic Seeds –

Find biodynamic seeds which are produced using organic practices that consider local growing environments and produce better for certain areas.

When buying seeds, you might want to read the labels carefully and check out the supplier to ensure that you’re getting what you pay for.

Try to get untreated, organic, heirloom seeds. Don’t be afraid of hybrid seeds either, although they are known for not always producing as well as other types of seeds.

Also, realize that some farmers don’t want to pay the extra cost for having “certified organic” seeds even when they do have organic seeds.

Buy from those you trust, and don’t worry too much about whether something says “certified” unless you also want them to be certified.
