Here in wyoming home depot already has seeds.

Yes, I've seen seeds at all the local stores.

And, of course, the internet is full of wonderful mail-order places that would be delighted to take your money and mail some fresh seeds straight to your mailbox. Not all have high shipping costs.

I don't mean that in a sarcastic sense at all. I adore mail-order! The shipping costs have to be counted against sales tax and gas money and time/hassle to travel to the local stores. It often ends up being the same or cheaper to get it through the mail. Also, seed from stores may or may not have been stored properly since received from the seed companies. Seed company mail-order seeds tend to be fresher than store-bought, though my best luck is with seeds I've saved myself or received in trades from other seed-savers.

If you want something specific, or know which store you'll be visiting, you could always call them to see if they have what you want in stock.

What kinds of seeds are you looking for?

thanks. Wanted to try green pepper cause they were a buck and a half in the store. Now they have come down. I haven't been looking for several weeks. Need to make a trip to H-depot for some reflector stuff and will check. Ate up all the little lettuce plants and need to plant some more under the tomato. 14 degrees right now at noon Sunday. No way this old man is going out for a couple of days.

My "local" Walmart still has seeds left over from last year. They have them hidden in a corner of the garden center, but they are there. They have them discounted, but remember, you get what you pay for.

Billie, did they finally discount that box of seeds at WM? I had them price check a packet a few weeks ago, and they were still ringing at full price (of course, I'm guessing that your local WM is my local WM)

I checked at one of the nurseries a few weeks ago as well. They told me they get seeds in around the beginning of February, so I think we'll be seeing them all over soon.

Our Walmart still has Christmas decorations in the garden area. They said it would be February before they started stocking gardening stuff.

The Lowe's in Glenwood Springs has their seeds out. Though I guess that's not exactly local for you guys, LOL!

gteenbean - One of the employees over there told me they were discounted, I bought some peat pellets out of there to start some herbs and they were discounted. Weird that they would not discount the seeds.

And yes, your Walmart and mine are the same, usually. I also frequent the one on Power and PP.
