Will there be early availability of the GtS mixes for those who contributed seed this year, or not?
Yes! Sounds like you missed the email. I’ll resend it to you.
Hi there, I sent Julia an email explaining that I missed the deadline to return okra seeds because our work aligns with the academic calendar at the Portland Community College Learning Garden. Would it be possible to still access early availability of seeds from GtS? Thanks for considering!
Hi Mimi,
Instructions for submitting seeds are on our website here, and there’s a link to a form to let us know what you’re sending & request a shipping label. We accept contributions year round, so if you missed the deadline I encourage you to send in your seeds when you’re able and we will put you on the list for next year. And though you might not get your first choices, there are plenty of seeds to go around.
I’m new to GTS. Can you clarify whether the seeds that are currently listed on the GTS website are the 2026 seeds regarding which you are discussing early access or will more be listed shortly? I see that the seeds have frequently been posted on Feb. 1 in previous years?
Sorry for the delayed response… it’s a busy season here. Seeds are available now on our website: 2026 US Seed Collection – Going to Seed if you’re in the US.
