Can’t find a variety here on the website that was listed in our 2009 catalog? It’s probably sold out - we’ve had an extra-busy year since the catalog came out!
To see what’s new since the 2009 catalog was printed last December (sold-out varieties, bulk sizes no longer available, added bulk sizes, added varieties, changes in organic status), see the list of Changes Since the 2009 Catalog Was Printed.
Southern Exposure Seed Exchange is a wonderful source for heirloom
seeds and other open-pollinated
(non-hybrid) seeds with an emphasis on vegetables, flowers, and herbs that
grow well in the Mid-Atlantic region. We support seed saving and
traditional seed breeding. Seed savers and breeders are to thank for our rich
selection and we will do whatever we can to support our customers and associates
to carry on this noble tradition.
We do extensive germination and purity testing of our garden seeds and nursery
stock to ensure that we can always provide our customers with the highest quality
possible. We want your plants to excel.
Though the majority of seed savers that we contract to help us raise our seeds
do so using traditional natural methods, some have opted not to become certified
organic. The new USDA Organic rules state that in order to grow Certified Organic
produce, growers must plant Certified Organic seeds if suitable certified seeds
are available. We are therefore committed to offer organic seeds whenever possible
for our varieties that we feel are well-suited to market growers, contracting
our non-certified but philosophically organic growers
to raise seeds that are more suited for home use.
You can find more about Southern Exposure Seed Exchange, along with articles
and links of interest to growers and gardeners, at our home page.
Please browse our mail-order site to find heirloom tomatoes, peppers, ginseng,
potato onions, okra, naturally colored cotton, southern-style greens, and much
more. We think that after you try them, you'll agree that our tomatoes taste
better!
