Baker’s Creek Heirloom Seeds

I mentioned this seed company in an earlier post. Just learned of this WSJ article about their work. Here’s a description of the “heirloom” in Heirloom seeds from the WSJ article:

“Heirloom seeds are those that are passed down from generation to generation, are open-pollinated and aren’t patented or genetically modified. Every week, people from as far away as the Ukraine or as close as Appalachia send Mr. Gettle their own heirloom seeds, each with a story. Customers from St. Louis to Saudi Arabia buy the seeds for small farms, home gardens, schools and public gardens.”

Cool!
