For some time now I’ve had a list of seeds I was offering to readers of this blog. Since last year I mostly only grew garlic, this list from two years ago is starting to get very out of date and so I’m going to take it down. Perhaps in the fall I will put another list together.
If there is anything you see on this blog and you would like to have some seeds, please send me an email and we’ll see if we can arrange something. If we have never traded seeds before, and you have nothing to offer in return in the way of seeds I usually ask that you pay a little bit to cover the cost of postage and packing materials. This is usually the equivalent of a couple of US dollars in cash sent in a letter, and I accept several different currencies.
In August or September I will probably have some garlic bulbs to share. I will post details then. If you don’t have anything to trade, shipping costs will be a little higher for this.
Sending anything like this to the US is always a bit of a problem. Most seeds can be sent to the US, but require you apply for a permit in advance, this is called the ‘Small Lots of Seed Permit’. Since I am not a US resident, I cannot apply for this permit, you must do this yourself. Imports of garlic are generally not allowed into the US. If you want to go to the trouble of getting a permit, I will try to cooperate with you on sending some seeds. Please send me an email for more details.
hi. taking a break from planting seeds & wishing to find something interesting to read online about gardens, i typed ‘purple podded peas’. (i learned of these peas yesterday). i am so pleased to come to your website AND to see the heading ‘seeds offered’. do you have some to spare? any requests for seeds from this side of the pond? i live in virginia. all the seeds my family plants are heirloom & hopefully!! non-gmo. thanks.
