The Organic Heirloom Garden Seed Bank is a hybrid collection of seeds that are non-hybrid, organic, and features about 20 different varieties. The seed bank offers different vegetable and fruit seeds that are heirloom and heritage. Each variety is packaged individually in a good-grade mylar in order to protect it from molding, insects, light, or moisture.
The single mylar package comes with instructions on how to plant the seeds, harvest them, and about the different collections. When the packages are sealed, it has a shelf life of up to 3-5 years and is recommended that it is stored in a cool and dry space. It features seeds that grow lettuce, cucumbers, corn, cantaloupe, broccoli, and much more.
