Watermelon Seed
Lettuce Seed
Other Seed
2008
In Jan 07 I did germination tests on 50+ batches of tomato seeds that I collected from the plants I grew this year. I have over 40 seed batches that have done very well, roughly 80+% germination. I managed to save from 1/3 oz. to several ounces of the seeds I will list. The summer of 07 was a terrible tomato year for us. The weather was the worst of all conditions. First drought, then flooding rain. I wasn't able to get any decent seed saved from this years planting.
The varieties that I have more of, I will offer in larger size packages too.
Any seed name that has MOS behind it means that I have My Own Seed available. I will put the buy buttons for that seed on the individual variety pages as I have the time. For right now, I'm just making up a list of what I have.
How to use Google Checkout on this site !!
Google
Checkout is a great way for you to use
your credit card to pay for the order. Google acts as the payment
processor for me. Since Google is a better deal on fees for me and I
think is safer for you since you are using your credit card, please use
the Google Checkout option if at all possible. Not all of the pages are
changed over yet. If things get confusing, just give me an email.
We grow tomato plants for selling as transplants at farmer's markets. We also field plant many of our plants for picked tomatoes and pick your own. We grow about 100 varieties.
2003 was the first year I saved quite a bit of tomato seed, but most of what I'm offering is seed that I purchase for my own farm and is what we grow ourselves. In 2006 I did save quite a bit of tomato seed that is on offered as My Own Seed (MOS). I do have a few varieties that I've saved that are no longer offered by seed companies anywhere.
I have this site in part for something to do in the winter, but largely because I like to try new varieties of seed. If I buy a larger package size, I get a better price and I also have enough to sell the excess that I don't need for the farm. That way I'm able to afford to try more new varieties.
All seeds are in small zip-lock bags and shipped in bubble padded mailers.
Packets contain about twice what's in store packs and are weighed to 0.1 gm (about 25-40 seeds).
As I work on the page, I will be adding some mini packs to the collections area. The sample mini packs will be packs of about 10-15 seeds / variety. The mini packs will be in collections only, as they are as much if not more work to make up as a regular pack.
They are all $2.25 per packet.
The collections give you a 10- 20%+ price break and for some, free shipping.
I would be happy to talk with you about varieties or other garden things. I am unable to take an order by phone tho, as I do not have a personal merchant account to do credit cards. PayPal or preferably Google Checkout are the only ways I can do Credit cards.

Some of the pages for each variety are now up. The variety pages have been temporarily taken down until I can get them changed over to Mal's Cart.
I now have a page for the MOS seed list and prices.
If you order multiple packs of the same seed, I usually put it all in 1 pack with a number to indicate that it's a multiple.
This page is now set-up with Mal's Cart for use with Google Checkout. I would prefer if you use Google if you can.
This is the Google Checkout page. If you want to use PayPal, click here for that order page.
I have had people ask me how I can save seed from hybrid seed varieties. So I put up an info page explaining it all here. I have quotes taken from a book by Carol Deppe that explains why many of us believe many hybrid seeds are not really hybrids at all.
If you would like to pay for an order with RME, here is a button that will allow you to pay me directly. See this page for more info about RME. I will give you free shipping and 1 free pack of seeds IF you sign up under my referral.
I reserve the right to substitute MOS seed for a commercial seed order if I run short of a variety.
Just a quicky update for some late arrival seeds. I'll get buy buttons when I have a chance. Email me if you are interested in any of these.
I'm also doing a germination test on some new seeds for Early Cascade and Fourth of July I recently came across. I'll post them if they do OK. As of 4/17/08, they aren't germinating well enough that I would be comfortable selling these new seeds. But they will give me some plants I will be able to use for seed for next year. Some of the seed I recently collected are already 3rd generation, so this summer's seeds will be 4th generation and should be a mostly stable seed if it wasn't already. If this year's growing season is better than last year, I should have at least 20 more varieties of seeds listed by next winter. We will be concentrating on seed saving this coming season as more and more favorite varieties have disappeared from seed catalogs this last year.
