Sounds like I need to put Gardener's Supply on my list when I get up north.

I order online when I can get most of what I want from the same place. But for those last couple things on the list - you either pay annoyingly high shipping for 1-2 packets, or else try to find something locally.

So let me get this straight.. your argument against this is that it’s possible that the spouses are being abusive towards their cop spouse? 10% of all families report domestic abuse, whereas 40% of cop families reported abuse. Either the common connection to this high number are the cops or the highly unlikely chance that all these cops are marrying abusers. That makes no sense. Bad argument. Bad whataboutism. Your skewed and biased look into the data needs work.

You’re not going to get rare varieties in the stores, pretty much have to order online. Fedco out of Maine is my favorite but Jonny’s and High Mowing are good northern suitable sources. Baker Creek out of Missouri is great for heirlooms. Also post on your local FPF for seed Swaps, that’s a great way to get your hands on rare stuff without having to buy much quantity

Look online for High Mowing Organics seed Company. They are a Vermont based company and they have a really great and unique selection. You will be able to find them at Aubuchon hardware, Dandelion Acres in Bethel(really great place to get plants also btw), and there are other Vermont locations listed on their website.

My folks have always ordered via the High Mowing Seeds catalog every winter, I do the same myself. Then I go to Gardener's Supply to pick up anything I wasn't able to get from the catalog.

Gardner's Supply carries seeds. Not sure of the brands. High Mowing Seeds out of Wolcott sells online and in local stores like Aubuchon & Ace. Check your library too for seeds. Some do seed exchanges or get donations from seed companies to hand out

Online is best.

Gardener's supply has some good stuff earlier on. You've got to keep checking. They get things in as time goes on.

We grow some really weird stuff, so we might be looking for different things than you. But we usually get 20-25 or so packets locally each year.
