Just thought with all articles being posted about Monsanto and with those asking were they can get seed, I thought I'd post a few of my picks and also post another list I found . Please remember
that Monsanto has been buying seed companies all over the world , spreading their terminator seeds.
If you get to talk to these companies don't be bashful...ask alot of questions ! Also don't forget you want open pollinated varieties.

which states in part, "We feel that genetically engineered
varieties have been insufficiently tested prior to public
release. More research and testing is necessary to further
assess the potential risks of genetically engineered seeds.
Further, we wish to support agricultural progress that leads
to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural
ecosystems and ultimately people and communities."

I bought my coffee cherries from seed savers!
Government has solved the age old dilemma of the alchemists. In order to turn lead into gold, just add blood.

I bought from survivalistseeds a few months back and have been very happy with the plants. They also provide a DVD on how to make a portable water filtration system that might be a good idea to have as a back up.
Very helpful, thanks!
