Free garden seeds

Hungry? The solution is as simple as walking into your backyard! I just discovered a great resource where you can get vegetable seeds for FREE! Time to start planting that garden!


An organization called “The Dinner Garden” sends for free to anyone in the United States who wants to start a garden! They mail seeds anywhere from Maine to Hawaii and Texas to Alaska. You can also pick up seeds in several states around the country. Below you will find a list of locations where you can pick up their special seeds. None of these gracious distributors charge anything for the seeds, not even postage, so be sure to pick them up!
