Gene, I clicked on it and though the way it works seems the same, the site I
had found was smaller and I'm pretty sure was situated in the South
somewhere.  The one you just listed looks like they probably have a larger
selection.  The  things they both had in common, was they were not -for-
profit, heritage seed type deals and both have sent seeds to that seed vault
in Norway.  If I had a big garden space, I would certainly try this
out......bobford
