In this video, I’ll show you various places that I’ve bought some of my favorite seeds online. My favorite place to get seeds is Baker’s Creek, but I’ve also purchased seeds from MIGardener, Kitagawa Seeds, Hudson Valley Seeds and Amazon as well. Below are links to the sites in case there is something you saw in the video that you may want to try growing. I’m not sponsored by these companies, they just offer products that I like growing in my garden.

If you have enough room, a kiddie pool with drain holes drilled in bottom and sides work really well as long as you have a good mix of potting mix, perlite, coconut coir and fertilizer. City Mill has them in different heights. Because of the lip on the kiddie pool, the slugs and snails can't get into the vegetables. New Kuroda carrots are "the best."
Lots of tomatoes!
Ok im gonna ask a dumb question. How long are the seeds are good for before you have to throw them away. Or are they just forever good. 🤔
Aloha Misty, this was very interesting to watch. Reminded me of my late Dad, his passion was growing vegetable plants right from seed, a real labor of love. He used part of our backyard as his garden and a small area for him making compost to fertilize the plants. What type of fertilizers do you use for your plants?
Great assortment of amazing looking veg & flowers seeds. Kitazawa is a local seed company (headquarters located in Nor Cal), I was looking over it's seed catalog a few years ago (before I had to treat for subterranean termites, no growing directly in the ground for the next several years). Thx for sharing!
How come my posts re locally adapted seeds are deleted?
If you have hboMax, the winning time series is hilarious. best series ever.
Great info. Thanks Misty!!!
These are some of my favorites as well! I also sometimes order from sellers on Etsy and have had relatively good luck with that. Trade Winds Fruit is great too however, I believe the majority of their seeds are trees/larger plants (though they do have some seeds for veggies too).
I definitely related to the seed hoarder comment. I started a spreadsheet for mine a year or two ago and have like 690 something on the sheet and probably another 20-30 or so packs on my desk that I need to add still. I know I have a problem, ok?! hahaha

Where is the best place to buy seeds for dwarf vegetables? I checked your favorite seed company but nothing came up in their search bar under "dwarf vegetable." Mahalo
