Did you know that almost all seeds bough in every store in the USA and most of the world is owned by one corporation and they have been genetically modified to not produce any seeds?

This is so you have to buy more seeds the next year (So they say)
Not only are hybrid GM seeds sterile and lack nutrition, but the real reason is so you cannot feed you family or yourself in a time of crisis.

Self reliance calls for you to buy your seeds from a company that produces heritage seeds that have not been touched to alter them and will grow and produce seed's after the plant has matured.

IMPORTANT:
These are all-natural seeds, original strains of garden food non-hybrid, not genetically modified.
Most of these seeds date back 150 years. Heirloom offspring seeds can be saved and grown later. Important when people are starving!

Seed Companies No Hybrid, heritage seeds:

Comment by Anthony Kimbrough on June 22, 2012 at 11:40pm: Theres actually 7 rows of corn on the other side of the beans, Country Gentlemen and Golden Bantam with pumpkin in 100 ft row between the corn and beans. Corn is so-so. If it makes good we eat, if not the cows eat. The green beans are 2 rows peanut beans, 2 rows 1/2 white runners, and 2 rows greasybacks. Each row is about 100 ft long. The garlic garden still has the broccoli, cantaloupe, banana melon, watermelon, cucumbers, yellow tomatoes, cabbage, and okra. Small tomatoe garden in the back yard, about 50 plants (25 too many). :)

Comment by Anthony Kimbrough on June 22, 2012 at 11:33pm: It's a start but we got the 1st run of green beans done, Peanut Beans and tonight more are getting strung and broke for tomorrow. I pick, Megan strings & breaks, and Denise cans. Despite the dry, they've done ok. We'll take whatever God allows. Denise done 12 bread & butter pickles, I have no idea how much squash. Seems to not be as many bees this year. Anyway this is one garden now.

Comment by Anthony Kimbrough on June 14, 2012 at 9:01pm: Garlic done for this year and now the rest goes on.

Comment by Anthony Kimbrough on May 13, 2012 at 11:48pm: Welcome and what do you want to know? Begin as in plow the soil (personally I till ours about 8 inches deep. Buy or swap Heirloom plants. Decide what who wants and how much by the room you have.

Comment by Anthony Kimbrough on May 12, 2012 at 12:32am: Thanks, I just hope I can work it all.

Comment by Nikki on May 11, 2012 at 3:46pm: Looking good, Anthony!

Comment by Anthony Kimbrough on May 10, 2012 at 11:42pm: 3 different areas, plus Megan's squash. The corn is in this area, 7 rows.

Comment by Anthony Kimbrough on May 10, 2012 at 11:40pm: So far everything looks good here too. 3 kinds of green beans, 2 kind of open pollinated corn, 4 kinds of sweet peppers, 5 types garlic, 3 types okra, and I lost count how many types of tomatoes. Plus cantaloupe, banana melons, cucumbers (2 types), watermelon, 3 types, and squash 2 types. Oh yea, Broccoli, cabbage, 1 egg plant, 3 type pumpkin, 2 types of gourds, plus the grapes, blueberries, blackberries, pears, apples, peaches... cherry trees aren't doing nothing though. They're up, now hopefully they'll do good.Don't have pictures of it all and these are a little older ones.

Comment by Ragnarok on May 10, 2012 at 12:55pm: All my seeds so far is germanating :-) (white peppers, 3 different kinds of chilies, long peppers, bell peppers)
