Why Buy Organic Seeds?
Answer:
(Answer courtesy of the Institute for Responsible Technology)
Below is a pretty good list of suppliers of certified organic seed. The one's marked with a ♥ are ones I've bought from (let me know if I've left anyone out).
A note about buying from Canada (or overseas in general):
Customs restrictions often make seed importation difficult, if not impossible. Make sure you discuss this issue with any seed supplier outside the U.S.
