Where can I find those small 1"X1" zip bags?

I've been to several Wal-Marts, Kmart, Target, and some stores I can't remember.

I buy mine from ULINE in quantity. They have all sizes. Here's the Site:

Ahhh, now, no shooting the Tiggershark, don't I have enough problems? Look at that bad bite, I got, an orthodontist's dream!! And I am not supposed to accumulate heavy metals- look at Mr. Tuna and what happened to Charlie the Tuna when they got heavy metals??!!

C'mere closer, see? I'll open my mouth real wide to show you that impacted tooth in the back, come on, can you see it?

I did sort the pepper into the ziplock bag. Now, I need to call a realtor for some acreage to grow all these varieties LOL. Thanks all and wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas.
Lastfling, my sentiments exactly...I have been browsing the realty ads.

Just got my package today. I really don't know what to say. It took me almost two hours to just sort through the package. Everything I could ever wish for and then some ...all the pretty colored beans and tomato varieties I never thought I could get hold of. I am just awed by contemplating the genetic material in all those little packets.

I am so grateful for all of the work that has gone into this endeavor. God bless Tormato and everyone here who is so passionate about protecting biodiversity. And now I will spend the next three months garden planning and dreaming of bean teepees, sweet juicy tomatoes, and spring instead of fretting about the cold as I usually do this time of year.

Thank you again, Gary. It was very thoughtful of you to include some heat for my pepper-headed husband. Maybe he won't mind me pulling up some more grass

Isn't it such a delight to open that package and see all the wonderful riches!!!!

It brightens my wintery days to see all the varieties and think of the potential in those seeds. And to day dream about where what will go and how it shall look and taste!

I'm hoping Tigger Sharks are doing well in the cold. In my neighborhood they're saying 14F degrees cold tonight. I'm thinking the weather service means F as in Fahrenheit.

Iv been going through all of the varieties over the last several days and still haven't looked up all of them. Thank you again. I'm still amazed at how many varieties there are in there and how much work this must have been.

That is great. After reading your post, chances to get the seeds pass in one second from low to very high

It's okay, I'll just grow another one! HA! Teeth in an endless supply. <grin>

Lean over that rail just a little further, and you'll see the tooth I was talking about....I'll open my mouth really wide for you to lean into it.
