VASCM: Seed suppliers (from our last meeting with Rich Casale)

[Mary Lindsay]

At our last meeting on Cover Crops at Vine Hill, Rich Casale handed out a list of seed suppliers.  
For anyone who did not get the list or who was not there to get it, here it is.  This list is from
the NRCS.  Rachel Ormes at Vine Hill said she was getting organic seed and good prices from Mountain 
Feed in Ben Lomond (included on the following list).  Rich recommended rice straw to cover the seed,
and you will see some of these suppliers provide it.

You can also find a pdf of this list on our website at www.vascm.org, where the meeting is listed
on the homepage.
