Strictly medininals is a great company!

Rareseeds.com aka Baker creek heirloom seeds company gives out a free catalogue that's got a good portion of what they sell. There's a full sized catalogue with everything they sell year to year for a few dollars. Worth the few bucks. Tons of pics of all kinds of veggies and flowers. It's like porn for plant geeks.

Not sure it's free but think it is but https://www.kitazawaseed.com has all things Asian veggies. Very cool stuff. PDF of inventory and or a paper catalogue.

Thanks for the resources! Also worth checking to see if your local library or county extension office has a seed lending library program. Unfortunately right now I can't tell if the ones in my area are shut down due to COVID or just temporarily for the winter, but it looks cool

BEWARE eburgess.com /farmerseed.com / and other similar scams connected to directgardening.com

eburgess and farmerseed sent me magazines with almost to good to be true prices, and products,
(both company had the same items for sale, and similar prices, and same style, same website layout.)
after hours deciding how much i can afford, i was about to place a big order, but i decided to google reviews..
turns out they are most likely some sort of a scam multi-company.. seems similar to the fake seeds scams.
eburgess claims to be a 100 something year old company, so i figured they'd have some reviews..

just thought i would warn anyone who might have received the same magazines..

if you had a positive experience with this company, please share, i can only find negative reviews.

  I have ordered from eburges and farmer seeds several times,  I have always received my orders but their stock all sucks small, over dry  bare root with no roots what soever and likely diseased.
