Hello,

I just recently sorted out my seeds and have a lot of excess seeds in bulk which I would love to donate to the Seeds of Hope.

Please send me the address where I can send them.

Thank you!

Thanks so much for all of your kindness and generosity. I would not have expected anything less from this wonderful group!! They will truly be Seeds Of Hope, how cool is that.

I also will be going through my seeds and will be happy to send a large pack! Thanks for the info! Melinda

I have some nice fresh seeds that would be great for that zone. I will get them in the mail monday. Thanks for posting this.

Do they want just flower seed or would they accept pepper seeds also?

I will check with Harry on Monday and just see. I know that from shopping there, they have never had veggies for sale, HERBS yes. But there was one time this past September, he did have some green pepper plants that were donated to them and he sold them at their annual plant sale...so I guess I'd say sure, why not. Things that can grow well for extended periods in containers would work, but as far as other veggies, I would probably say no, as they may sit there awhile before being purchased which wouldn't work well for many veggies.

So far It's not been (*yet*) a high profile nursery, pretty small scale, as they have not had funding to advertise it. All by word of mouth at this point.

I have plenty of seeds I can send. Thanks for letting me know about it.

Best to you,

Cool, I'll see what I can gather up.
Thanks for the info.

Yea I will check them out too....Barb

Rj this a very selfless and wonderful thing you are doing. I have also noted the addy and will send them a nice package. I will also give them a call to find out what they may prefer. This will be put on my list of well worthy causes. I stopped at the Dollar Tree a couple of weeks ago and they had all their seeds at 20 for a dollar. I bought tons to give to my friends. among this were snaps, marigolds, bells of Ireland and petunias. I wish I had known, however I do now and I will certainly keep them in mind when gathering seeds and will tell my friends as well. Josie

I'm in! I too am working on a project, "Seeds for the Needy" to help a local homeless organization grow vegetables this year. I've got lots of flower seeds I can send. Just send me a SASBE and you've got it.

hi, my good friend got boxes! of seeds from some sort of place that exists to spread the love of gardening. she gave me plenty so i will send these folks some. great cause!

Thanks for the heads-up on this wonderful project. I'll be going through my seeds over the next couple of weeks and I'm sure I'll find plenty to send them.

UPDATE: Spoke to Harry today and he'd love to have any herb seeds (he had many requests for these plants last year and only had a few things growing).

and just again, THANK YOU SO MUCH for your generosity, it is just so wonderful, they will surely be grateful for your donations.

rjinga ... what a wonderful thing you are doing, and Harry, too!! I wasn't able to winter sow last year and have thousands (literally) packs of seeds all labeled, sealed, and ready for a good home. I'm so glad you posted this. I copied the address and will send a large donation. I'll be sure to mention you and your post.

Thanks again,
Barbara in Virginia
