Gardener Resources

Great source for vegetables, flowers,  herbs, and general garden supplies! Based in Maine, Johnny's conducts extensive breeding and research trials of new varieties, and has a wide selection!

Burpee's has been in business since the 1880's. They are the classic American seed company, and have an extensive collection of seeds to order.

A gardening cooperative with subsections for seeds, flower bulbs, trees, edible bulbing plants, and garden supplies.  Based in Maine, they specialize in cold-tolerant selections for the Northeastern climate; while Pennsylvania's climate isn't as rigorous as Maine's, Fedco offers varieties that early- and late-season gardeners here may find useful.  Their prices are sometimes much cheaper than other sites due to their status as a co-op.  

Farmacie Isolde procures useful and unusual seeds from around the world. They offer seeds produced by small independent growers, meticulously selected for medicinal use, historic significance, or for ease of culture in the home garden. They grows in and ships from the Hudson Valley in New York.

In addition to its membership-only association of gardeners who grow and exchange heirloom vegetables and flowers, the SSE has a catalog containing selections freely offered to the public, much of which can also be purchased online.
