Here's a question

Biggs, KY(Zone 6a)

I have had so much fun trading seeds getting ready for my Spring garden. Lot's of the seeds I traded for came in itty bitty plastic ziplock bags. Some even had white strips on them for labeling. I was wondering where to get those neat little bags. I'm hoping to save lots of seeds for sharing from this year's garden and I'd love to get some of those little bags. Thanks.

Hi there. It happens there is a co-op forming to order those:

Also toward the later posts in that thread a few people posted their alternate sources of envies....... so you have some other options there too. ;-)

Thanks for the link. Had no idea you could get them at Walmart. I'll check there and then go back to the co-op if I can't get them at our local Walmart.

For me Walmart is an hours drive away so I am trying not to go there.

We have 1 30 minutes in 2 directions so I'll give thema try when I go to town for feed.

I'm doing the envie coop but I've purchased the Walmart bags and glassine envelopes from Dianes Seeds in the past. I think it's 100 for $5 for the glassine envies. I had another thought about saving seeds. The envies are great for mailing but if you have a lot of seed, maybe used plastic or glass seed jars would work for storing more seeds.

Got mine at Michael's.

Got mine at Michaels too - I think they were 100 for $1 or $2 and they had several sizes to choose from.

You can get 1000 at http://www.gtzip.com/ for $7.99, I'm not sure if there is a minimal purchase, we buy them in huge lots for work.

They are in the beads/jewelry section in WalMart, Michaels or Hobby Lobby.

Occasionally I get seeds in those wax paper looking envelope, where can I get those? I don't see those at the above store.

Found them last night in the jewlery section of the craft department at Walmart. 100 for .97. Thanks for the info.

Those little hobby shops or craft dept. at your local Walmart/Kmart etc. should have them. They are fairly cheap.
