Great Information on Saving Seeds, Germination, Gardening, etc.

Victory Seeds Company: provides us great seeds and great information on seeds and gardening.  It seems like Gardening is almost becoming a lost art, for so many years we have been taking food for granted; by running to the nearest store, taking our shopping cart and filling it up with jars, cans, boxes filled with food. Food? Yes, I said food. Well for some reason, many of us are now starting to find out, that the food we have been taking for granted for years: is not exactly what our version of food should be. And we don't even know the whole story, we just get hints. Hmmm. Some of the food we eat may be irradiated, but thats ok. Some of the food we eat, though manufactured in the USA, includes ingredients that come from China. Hmmm, some of our fruits and veges are GMO and several countries in the world will not import some of our produce.

Well, fortunately there is a grassroots movement for self sustainability on the horizon. So many of us are trying our "green thumbs" at going back to the basics of gardening for some of the food we eat. And we are finding out that its amazing how much we can grow in our own backyards. Hey my tomatoes are doing great. Having conquered growing tomatoes and other herbs,fruits and plants, now I want to learn how to harvest my own seeds from my own grown tomatoes,etc. I FOUND THIS WEB SITE VERY HELPFUL and recommend to other urban homesteaders in the making. http://www.vintageveggies.com/information.html
