How To Get FREE Heirloom Seeds - What I received!!
Ordering Seeds on a Budget | FREE HEIRLOOM SEEDS 🌱💰
Looking for an affordable way to start your garden? I recently ordered from FREE HEIRLOOM SEEDS, and it’s a great option for anyone on a budget!
Check out: freeheirloomseeds.org/
There are two ways to get seeds from them:
✨ Donation Option: $10 gets you 15 packets of seeds! I donated $20 and received 30 packets, and my order arrived in about a week and a half (though they ask to allow up to 4 weeks for delivery).
🌱 FREE Option: You can request seeds at no cost! Orders for free seeds start shipping in March, so get your list in early. Just note that some varieties may go out of stock by the time they fulfill your order.
🚨 IMPORTANT: Be sure to read and follow their instructions carefully when ordering! They have specific guidelines to ensure you get your seeds. I mailed my order via snail mail, but there’s an option to order online as well.
They offer more than just flowers-tons of vegetables, herbs, and more! If you’re looking for an affordable seed source, this is a great resource.

What a pretty flower! I LOVE LOVE LOVE Bee Balm 🙂
I absolutely love this flower too! I am hoping to grow a few varieties this year :)
Oh my goodness I love your helper. She is just the cutest thing! My helpers are all grown. I too am in zone 6a can’t wait to winter sow my seeds! I do have a small green house. It’s my first winter with it but it’s unheated, I will be experimenting with seed starting in the greenhouse in the spring and of course, as I always do in the house with my vegetables. Best of luck.
@@jeepgirlscozycrafts awww thank you she is the best!!! Ouuu I am jealous you have a green house! That is my next goal is to one day have one 🤞🏻 Happy Winter sowing!! ❤️❤️
Hi from Poland ! Thanks for sharing! 😊
@@TheSerenaaaaa you’re so welcome! I hope this was helpful!
Thanks for sharing the app! Is the price increase too much?? We're trying to grow the app (adding a bunch of new features) and all of our competitors charge WAY more than we do. Curious what your thoughts are, is it still a good value at $25/year? Cheers and happy gardening, Peter
@@planterapp I think it is a fair price! There is so much information and it really saves me so much time with seed starting. I will definitely continue to use it. Having a free option is lovely too. I am excited to see the new features!
Has that shopping mall feel. So cozy😂
