2019 SEED EXCHANGE DONORS
Please support and thank our donors. Our seed donors are growing and selecting varieties for our Northern climate, and varieties that grow well using organic methods. They can provide their seed crop plants with the pollination requirements and populations needed for the healthiest, most robust seeds that will grow well in our region. Come back to this page for updates on seed donors this year.
We need our seed farmers!
Bear in mind that seed suppliers generally donate seeds labeled for sale last year, and we gratefully accept whatever varieties they send us. We also never know until the last day how many seeds will be donated or who will send them. This is the busy season for seed suppliers, and many of the small growers/suppliers find it challenging to find time and resources to ship donations.
We really want YOU to bring your own home grown and saved seed if you can. Bring well labeled seed no older than three years, unless you've tested germination and it is over 50%.
But it isn't necessary! Come & collect seed for this year's garden even if you don't have any to share.

SEEDS & CATALOGS

Strictly Medicinal Seeds is AGAIN the first donor to send us seeds and catalogs! Territorial Seeds did send us seeds late last spring, which we have carefully stored to share with you this year. As of Jan. 11 we've received seed donations from Seed Savers Exchange, High Mowing Seeds, Grow Organic (Peaceful Valley Farm Supply), and Puget Sound's own Ed Hume Seeds. Duvall Hardware has donated a big box of surplus seeds too! Donations, LOTS, have arrived from Irish Eyes Garden Seeds. Burpee seeds also sent a generous donation. A very generous donation of bulk seeds has arrived from Resilient Seeds!

Catalogs have arrived from Strictly Medicinal Seeds, Kitazawa Seeds, and Seed Savers. Catalogs are likely to be in short supply this year, as seed sellers are printing fewer of them and asking for more shipping costs. We will have copies for you to browse through at the exchange, and a few copies to share with some volunteers.
Snoqualmie Valley's own Jubilee Farm has donated surplus seeds, and Dragonstone Seeds & Bulbs of Duvall has as well. Last minute seeds and catalogs from Adaptive Seeds arrived just today, January 30th!
