1. go to the grocery store and buy a piece of fruit or veggie you like. then go home and take the seeds out and then cook the veggie. If you like the veggie then dry out the seeds and then plant those. It is kind of like a preview
2. these are both great resources for good heirlooms and other unusual varieties. www.seedsofchange.com www.seedsavers.org
3. Territorial Seeds are excellent, particularly if you live in the northwest: http://www.territorialseed.com/?gclid=CILG-r73ppECFScXagodfDuadw
4. you know, honestly I did got o wal mart, and I had a wonderful turnout...... organic too. so if all else fails dont be hesitant to get your seeds from there.=-) but if you want to try someplace else go to a website and order them like this one..... http://www.vegetableseedwarehouse.com or you could always try home depot and lowes, or your local nursery. good luck.... oh and my one growing suggestion.... Lemon Boy tomatoes....YUM!
5. Burpee seed company,I have used them for years,top quality seeds and plants.
6. I agree with the other posters--Wal-Mart has good veggie seeds. You can check out Burpee's online, or Ferry-Morse, Gurneys.
7. Baker creek heirloom seeds,-- www.rareseed.com-
8. I use Henry Field and Guerney's a lot. Both have web sites. And both are currently offering a half-price deal for early orders.
9. Henry Field's has a very good selection of seeds and starts. I understand Mountain Rose is good too.
10. For the last 7 years we have used Tomato Growers as a source for our veggie seeds. Every year, we sell out of all our veggies, so they must be reliable and yield a good product. They have many many varieties to choose from also. They carry a nice selection of Peppers and Eggplant too. Last year we purchased Largo Purple and Medusa. They are ornamental peppers and they were both a big hit! Black beauty is a great Eggplant. We always sell out of it also. http://www.tomatogrowers.com/ Good Luck and enjoy your veggies!!
11. Bluestone Perennial or Park Seeds both have catalogs you can order online.
