I love Pinetree for seeds. I order 80 percent of what I need for my vegetable garden from them.
Hi Carol -
No kidding! And, I just found out about the company recently from a friend who grows plants to sell.
I was looking through the Harris Seed catalog today and tore out the things I still want to order.
Now you have me thinking about Pinetree for the rest of the veggies.
Do they send out a catalog? Catalog reading is such a wonderful passtime after a busy outside day like today.

We don't mail out a catalog, but you can veiw all of our varieties on our website. We're a family owned company and we offer over 500 varieties, including many heirloom and organic varieties. Hope we can be new-to-your garden this spring!
