The Miller Nurseries (where my trees come from) and Fedco (where my spuds came from) were expected, but I am not sure where the other two came from, I must be on someone's list. The other two were quite glossy and full of lots of pictures. Neither had an "about us" blurb anywhere to be found, so I don't know if they are independent or simple a storefront for some other big company. Have open pollinated seeds become big business? (again)

Yep open pollinated and heirlooms are big business now! I think because more people are growing there own foods due to finance concerns and want to save seeds (and therefore money). Plus I think some are concerned about the Monstanto craziness, I know that was one of my reasons for starting a veggie garden.
Remember going through the toy catalogs and wishlists as a kid, before writing your letter to Santa?? That's how I feel when those seed catalogs start coming in. Mine have just started pouring in, and I love nothing more than laying in the floor reading each and every page. Just like a kid again : )
