Walmart doesn’t list seeds on their site. But then they don’t list a lot of items. Their seed packets used to be 10-25 cents.

Lowes’ prices start at about $2.

You can use the seeds from your grocery produce such as dried beans, tomatoes, melons, potatoes, garlic, onions and peppers.

Walmart here got rid of seeds through most of last year. Playing Gretchen Hitler’s game.

I bought a bunch from Baker Creek aka rareseeds.com — They grow nothing but heirloom variety seeds. Other companies do too of course but Baker Creek has a huge selection and they happen to be about 100 miles away from me so I know they’ll be well acclimated to my climate here in the Ozarks. I don’t drive to get them of course. Been meaning to get to one of their festivals but haven’t yet. They’re not having them right now.

They sold out of seed last year

I’ve noticed the price increases, but mainly that’s due to supply and demand because everyone and their brother was brainwashed into thinking we were all gonna die from the flu. And if we DIDN’T die from that, we were going to all starve to death due to shortages of Toilet Paper. *SNORT*

You might like this 9-minute video on YouTube about Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Company. Based on the operations of ONE seed company during CovidBS-19, you can clearly see what all of them were up against, world-wide.

Organic Gold potatoes from my local Walmart, in the past have grown better than the seed potatoes we purchased from the nursery or catalogs.
