I use
blue painter's tape...resealable a few times before it gets too dirty to be
tacky. Usually by then I've planted the pack. The tape doesn't
destroy vital information on the pack. I also file the packs sideways so
when replacing packs, the edges and corners don't get "caught" on the tape
sealing the package of the seed in front.
We've
got an embankment I toss "mystery" seed onto...have had some interesting
flower/brassica/lettuce combinations ; ))

We also have a shoebox/refrigerator setup that works fine. Our boxes are labeled according to our rotational crop structure (greens, brassicas, legumes, solanacea, etc.) That way, we can easily plan and plant each rotation block of our 7-acre garden.

But I'm wondering how folks reseal packets so they don't get stuck with a mystery lettuce mix in the bottom of the shoe boxes! I've tried Scotch tape (a bother), paper clips, folding, and a few other imaginative techniques (all undependable), All I can think of now is zip lock bags.
