If you're like us, the best thing about January is the opportunity it affords to pore
over seed catalogs and dream big for the coming garden season. Over the last three years,
LocalHarvest.org has been fortunate enough to attract over a dozen seed growers who now
sell their collections through our catalog. Seeds have become one of our top-selling
items, largely because our farmers are offering such treasured and hard to find varieties.
With so much biodiversity already lost in the public food sector, we think it is
especially important for home gardeners and family farmers to draw from the full
range of varieties that nature has made available. As the author and poet Maya Angelou
wrote, "In diversity there is beauty and there is strength." That's true enough in
the human family, but also flavorfully, colorfully, delightfully true in the garden.
We've compiled a list with some of our top sellers and personal favorites
from 2005. And check out our entire selection at our catalog's seeds department.
