elainegrey kindly dropped their link in a comment. Looks great, just added myself to their catalog list for next year. (Usually I'm getting OFF catalog lists!)
Their footer links to We Love Growing Dry Beans, You Might Too! by Sarah Kleeger, which inspired me to plant some of the Frye's Golden Goose beans I bought from Gales Meadow Farm in January. "Frye’s Golden Goose - The seed for this variety was given to us by a Gales Creek neighbor. It looks like the bush variety Brown Swedish, but it's a pole bean. No colored markings like some other shelling beans, but excellent flavor."
[Hrm. "We do not offer starts of cilantro, dill, beans, or sunflowers, since they are easy to grow and more successful from seed. In the case of dill and cilantro, transplants tend to go to seed right after planting." Well, we'll see how my little cilantro starts do! Lots of seeds would be ok. Oh, and that reminds me, I have some saved dill seeds...]
Dry Bean Recipes from Gales Meadow Farm including Frye’s Golden Goose Baked Beans.
Uprising Organics which are the seed packets my local co-op carries, so I've bought a lot of them over the years. I've been successful with their snap peas and greens.
Native Seeds/SEARCH. "Native Seeds/SEARCH (NS/S) is a nonprofit seed conservation organization based in Tucson, Arizona. Our mission is to conserve and promote the arid-adapted crop diversity of the Southwest in support of sustainable farming and food security."
These 7 Companies Ship Unique Seeds for Your Quarantine Garden by Reina Gattuso. I'm very much a buy-local gal for seeds and starts, partly because I don't tend to plan ahead, and partly because local is best for gardens. But these look interesting anyway.
Ten Apple Varieties Once Thought Extinct Rediscovered in Pacific Northwest by Alex Fox. "To find forgotten apples, volunteers with the Lost Apple Project pick their way through fields and ravines in rural Idaho and Washington state, searching for abandoned orchards from the region’s agricultural past. This past fall, they hit the jackpot." Yayyyyy!!!
