So who do you all recommend for a place to get seed?

Quality?
Price (always important)?
Service?
Family owned?

What other factors?

I get most of my seed from Pinetree. [snip]

Thanks to all who responded.....

One catalog that I really like is Territorial Seed Company, but the prices are higher than the norm, I think. One reason I like the catalog is that it tells you a great deal about planting, so it's a great teacher for a beginner, or someone who wants to branch out :haha: and try new plants.

I ordered the Pinetree catalog--thanks again. BTW, I like their website, too.

i really hate it when someone treads on a thread. i want everyone to know that henry fields and gurneys have been good at least for me, for the past two years. and they have a $20 coupon for orders over $40. and i bought 8 great fruit trees for less than $30. and when one died, they replaced it. great price and great service. give em a chance. and if you want to talk about another nursery, do it on another thread. thanks

Randy, I suppose that was my fault--I see your point. However, if you were to read the thread as a "Hey I really like THESE guys" then your comment is completely out of line. If you are advertising for either Henry Fields of Gurneys then you have a reasonable beef, however, I doubt that the others on the thread took this a direct attempt to sway the conversation away from someone you want to recommend. I appreciated the note you gave, and I had an honest question from some of the other replies.

Now, *if* you really don't see my point, then let me make 2 suggestions. In the future you can:

a) write me personally, as I can assure you, the slight was not intentional.
-or-
b) write the moderator who has the perfect right to correct me if the moderator sees that I have erred in my netiquette.

Otherwise, please refrain from attempting to slap a fellow poster down on a thread, whether you started the thread or not.

With much regard, apologies, and innocent recommendations intended,
