Under Canada

La Societe des Plantes in Quebec: www.lasocietedesplantes.com/ (teeny bit expensive for some items but good source of typical perennial edibles for Canada)
Edible Landscaping: www.ediblelandscapes.ca/ (I haven't had a chance to use them yet but they are different from a US company of the same name. Small but interesting stock)

Garden is a clearing in the woods grading from shallow, rocky soil supporting a maple bush to a pine forest planted on sandy soil and a clay bottomland with spruce and tamarack.

Shumway's is there. I didn't put the others in, because they are prominently linked on the main Shumway page, and I never bothered bookmarking them separately (I just used my bookmarks for most of the list...yeah...I know...

)

mjc, I am not sure what to say at the compiled information... Its awesome to say the least and thanks a gazillion fold.

I am glad you found the wholesale company based in Mn. That would be Jordan seeds. A great company, little ma and pa kind of thing and they grow quite a bit of their own seeds.

Again thanks

Was searching for a seed company and just noticed the poultry listings. IMO, these are the two best suppliers of poultry equipment in the U.S.A. Knowledge, competitive pricing and they attend shows and meet their customers not just hide behind an online order site.

Seeds by Size, in your European list, seems to be fading away. I haven't bought from them in many years, but they had a huge list then. Now the website lists a page of flowers, but only some of them are still available.

I couldn't find any vegetables.

It's a quiet Sunday afternoon & I decided to surf the seed company listings. The very first link I clicked came back as:

Seed from Valueseeds.com is no longer available, but you will find some great bargains in the new Thompson & Morgan Sale.
Growing Guides for your previous purchases are still available.
Thank you to all our past customers at the home of no-frills gardening.
