Independent Seed Companies
Four decades of Growing

in Michigan's Upper Peninsula There are many reasons to plant open pollinated and heirloom varieties and to support the independent growers and sellers. Most gardeners do so for a variety of reasons. The important thing is that they are doing it, keeping these sources alive. And it's fun! You'll find varieties you never dreamed of, seeds that are particularly suited for home gardeners in challenging climates. |

Here are some independent seed companies that sell open pollinated and heirloom varieties. Many of these companies are small family businesses whose owners are dedicated to the growing and preservation of a great diversity of many old varieties. They are engaged in an ethical and healthy business with a wonderful respect for the seeds and the people growing them. Please be understanding when contacting them particularly during the busy times. All of these companies strongly support and promote non-hybrid, usually organic, seed. Most are also actively involved in or are a part of a seed preservation organization. Be prepared for a much more interesting array of choices than you get from the "one-size-fits-all" sameness of the common big businesses.
