Survival Seed Bank Vs. Emergency Seed Bank

Well, after investigating this subject thoroughly and looking at all the emergency survival seed banks on the market, I’ve come to this conclusion: although there is about a dozen different survival seed banks on the market, I like only two: Survival Seed Bank and Emergency Seed Bank.

Both seed banks have hand picked seeds which can grow in almost any climate, soil type, harvest time and other requirements.
Survival seed bank not only includes a whole lotta seeds, but also a special 81page manual about starting and growing your survival garden using heirloom seeds.

On the other hand, Emergency seed bank is having a sale and for only $199 you now get now one, but two seed banks! (usually one seed bank, depending on the manufacturer, costs from $119-$150).

I just bought another emergency seed bank and it arrived today. from the time I made an order, it was about 10 days – speedy, if you ask me!I opened the container and found about two dozens of smaller seed packs (cabbages, carrots, onions..) and 8 large seed packs (beans, peas, corn…). All the seed packs are sealed in some sort of plastic foil which looks really sturdy.

Now I have to find out the best way to sore seeds for an extended period of time? Any recommends would be appreciated!

Survival Seeds – Heirloom Seeds

It seems to me that lately it is becoming increasingly harder to find good survival seeds, maybe it’s this time of the year when the demand for vegetables seeds is increased naturally. Still, there are places where you can buy non hybrid organic vegetable seeds to plant a survival garden.

With the uncertainty of the economy, lately I have begun my search for some open pollinated survival seeds, preferably in some kind of vault or survival seed bank, which could last for a long time.

Because of this economic uncertainty in our country and abroad as well, many folks are storing survival seeds along with other emergency  food supplies, essential for long term preparedness.

At first, it can be a little confusing to know what to look for when buying the best survival seeds or choosing appropriate survival seed bank for survival gardening purposes..

Survival seeds are always open pollinated and frequently heirloom seeds. Heirloom seeds have been passed down for generations and are preserved in particular region of the country.

Heirloom seeds and open pollinated seeds are great choice for survival seeds especially if you can get them sealed in an pack that will preserve them for a long as you need them to be preserved. And that’s where survival seed banks come in handy!

There is something really motivating about planting your own garden and growing vegetables. Gathering your own seeds and storing them knowing that you are set for the next planting season no matter what happens to the economy..that’s just priceless!

The beauty of it is that once you DO find your survival seed bank  – you will be set for life as far as survival seeds go, unless you simply don’t harvest them in the fall. :)

More and more seed bank companies are gaining traction lately, but some do stand out from the crowd. This is without a doubt my favorite one and there is a number of reasons for that. Their price is comparable, especially “2 seed banks for the price of 1 deal”!

Packaging is very practical and easy to open and close again. It’s great that you can plant, grow, harvest and re-store your seeds in the same container! That’s amazing!

Seed in Emergency Seed Bank is specifically designed for an emergency growing season.

Customer support is probably the best on the market, really excellent and fast.

Below is a youtube video I found of Emergency Seed Bank, so you can view it up close.
