Monthly Seed Subscription Club

Cool idea? Join for a low fee, get a new pack(s) of interesting ethnobotanicals each month?

Might be a fun way to spread the plants, add unique specimens to the collection that would otherwise be overlooked or difficult to acquire

The seed banks are a similar idea. Certain members with lots of species of seeds have them.

With the seed banks there is no cost, but you can donate seeds as well as take seeds.

Here are the current seed banks on STS:

Check them out. 

As far as a subscription for seeds that requires a monthly fee I'm not sure that would really fit here since we encourage trading seeds and do not allow members to advertise seeds for sale on the forums.

I do think it's a cool idea though!

i think that if it funds something that aligns with the morals of STS it would be perfectly fair :)

maybe the profits go to purchasing rarer seeds? or even covering shipping costs of randomly? just a thought. :)
