Winner of the American Horticultural Society Award for Excellence In Garden Book Publishing Winner of the Silver Medal for Best Reference from the Garden Writer’s Association Filled with advice for the home gardener and the more seasoned horticulturist alike, The Seed Garden: The Art and Practice of Seed Saving provides straightforward instruction on collecting seed that is true-to-type and ready for sowing in next year’s garden. In this comprehensive book, Seed Savers Exchange, one of the foremost American authorities on the subject, and the Organic Seed Alliance bring together decades of knowledge to demystify the time-honored tradition of saving the seed of more than seventy-five coveted vegetable and herb crops—from heirloom tomatoes and long-favored varieties of beans, lettuces, and cabbages to centuries-old varieties of peppers and grains. With clear instructions, lush photographs, and easy-to-comprehend profiles on individual vegetable crops, this book not only teaches us how to go about conserving these important varieties for future generations and for planting out in next year’s garden, it also provides a deeper understanding of the importance of saving these genetically valuable varieties of vegetables that have evolved over the centuries through careful selection by farmers and home gardeners. Through simple lessons and master classes on crop selection, pollination, roguing, and the processes of harvesting and storing seeds, this book ensures that these time-honored traditions can continue. Many of these vegetable varieties are treasured for traits that are singular to their strain, whether that is a resistance to disease, an ability to grow well in a region for which that crop is not typically well suited, resistance to early bolting, or simply because it is a great-tasting variety. In an age of genetically modified crops and hybrid seed, a growing appreciation for saving seeds of these time-tested, open-pollinated cultivars has found a new audience from home vegetable gardeners and cooks to restaurant chefs and local farmers. Whether interested in simply saving seeds for home use or working to conserve rare varieties of beloved squashes and tomatoes, this book provides a deeper understanding of the art, the science, and the joy of saving seeds.

Excerpt from Farm-Gardening and Seed-Growing Mr. Brill, in writing this work, made known for the first time, in this country at least, the methods followed by those who raise vegetable seeds as a business. Other works occasionally gave brief hints upon saving the few seeds required for the family garden, but by methods unsuited to operations on a commercial scale. The author is one of the few men well qualified to treat the subject practically. The business of seed-growing is rapidly extending in this country, and is attended by a corresponding falling off of importations. It is an occupation that presents many inducements to the careful cultivator, not the least of which is the large returns per acre from land devoted to the crops. In the business of seed-growing, a reputation for strict integrity and intelligent care forms an important portion of the capital required. The name of the grower adds a money value to the product. Market-farming is the growing of garden vegetables by farm culture. It is the form which our agriculture must assume as the country grows older and the population more dense. Farmers in the older States with high-priced lands can not afford to grow those crops which bring them in competition with cultivators of cheap lands in the newer States, and they must devote them to crops which can not be transported to a great distance and for which there is a constant local demand.

Excerpt from Gardening for Young and Old: The Cultivation of Garden Vegetables in the Farm Garden I should like to see more seed-growers in the United States, and I hope some of my young friends will devote themselves to this industry. There are more seeds sown in America, in proportion to population, than in any other country. European seedsmen, notwithstanding a duty of twenty per cent., find the United States one of the best markets in the world. It seems to be a fact, that many seeds, when grown here, produce much better crops than when grown in Europe. Market gardeners give a decided preference to American-grown seeds. American-grown cabbage seeds, for instance, find a ready sale at double the price of imported seed. Cauliflower seed has hitherto rarely been grown in this country successfully, but I understand that California is now growing it of excellent quality. Dakota is growing cabbage seed, and I feel confident that somewhere on this broad Continent, with its great diversity of soil and climate, there is not a seed which the American gardener wants, that will not be grown to perfection. The great point is to get what seed-growers call "stock seed," to start with. As a rule, you can not buy it. You must grow it yourself. Take Cucumber seed, for example. Enormous quantities of Cucumber seed are grown and sold in America, and yet it is exceedingly difficult to get good seed, pure, and true to name.
