seedsave.org is excellent. I haven't explored the whole site, and I'm
sure it's mentioned somewhere, but much seed-saving is dependent on
growing 'open pollinated' or 'heritage' varieties, Many veg are
hybrids which will not breed true. That is, you won't get the same
variety you saved seed from, but some combination of its ancestors.
