Buying Organic Seeds

If this topic is tabu - or this kind of post is wrong, please let me know. I started my garden this year and bought transplants & seeds from the big stores, local garden stores and online So far it has been a junk shoot. I tend to lean toward the ones I planted myself as being the better product, I just don't know if some of my plant issues are with sub par seeds. Any suggestions on sites online you have been happy with. I would like to purchase some organic seeds and seed potatoes (last batch of these were stinkers) so if anyone has any advice on sites they have used and have been happy with I appreciate all tips. :wink:

Johnny's and Fedco are my two favorites, but that's partially because they have good choices for my zone 4 garden. I've never considered whether seeds are best sourced locally, but now that think about it...

Genereality of my seeds I have bought in local sales from farms which are not tend to make big money. Their point is - quality, not quantity :)
Good luck!

I haven't purchased any seed Potatoes there, but I have been happy with seeds from Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds ... (as well as some of the other companies already mentioned above).

I used High Mowing Organic Seeds this year and have been really pleased with the results: https://www.highmowingseeds.com/. I've also used Seeds of Change in the past with good results: https://www.seedsofchange.com/.

Good luck!
