Order instructions for January through July
Please use the order forms downloadable below or a plain sheet of paper. Please remember to indicate whether you will accept substitutes if we are sold out of the variety
that you request. You can list specific substitutes if you wish. For example, you can say "If you are out of Top Crop beans,
please send either Contender or Blue Lake." I will probably have plenty of seeds for tomatoes, and the standard, older vegetables. A few
heirlooms (maybe 4-6 plants out of the 400 varietes I list) state in their descriptions that they are in short supply. Those are the ones
you may want to list alternates for.
Order instructions for July to December
15th:
Please email your selections so I can tell you if they are in stock, as we can't predict how many orders we get for some varieties,
which means some will be out of stock until the 2009 season. Also, I won't sell any seed that hasn't been tested for germination
and usually don't do that until November or December, so I will have to do special tests for you.
Seeds will take at least a week to test. We want you to have great results, so please have patience.
I may decide not to sell seeds between July 1 and December 15th. If I am able to sell seeds in this period, there will
be a 50 cents per packet surcharge for orders shipped between July 1st and either December 31th or
the date that the 2009 catalog is up.
Ordering:
Sorry, I can not sell seeds to people in Minnesota, Hawaii or outside the United Stages.

Or you can print out our order form and indicate the number of packets you want.

Amount of seed in a packet:
With most varieties, there will be more than enough seed for a home garden. If the variety is
inexpensive (that is, if the price I pay to the wholesale company is low), the packet will contain more seeds.
If it is very expensive, there will be fewer
seeds in a packet. If you are like me, you like to try lots of varieties, but that can get
expensive. By making smaller packets of expensive seed, Skyfire Garden Seeds lets you try a
new variety at lower cost. If you love it and you want to grow lots, just buy two packets.
Quantities subject to change without notice. (That means I correct my typos as soon as I find
them.) When varieties list seeds by weight, the approximate number of seeds per ounce or
gram is in the description for the section heading or the web page or catalog.
It is not a good idea to order seeds between October 1st and December 25th because we are in the process of testing and/or ordering seeds
and your order may be delayed until January. If you want to order special seed packets for Christmas stocking stuffers, contact
us to find out what varieties are available. There is a 50 cent per packet surcharge only if you want the order shipped between July 1st
and December 1st. Also, this is a one-person company--during flu season, things can slow down greatly. This is a very tiny heirloom
preservation company. I have a full-time job to make my living. I just can't have a staff to get things done daily. That said, from
February 1 (when my wholesale orders finally finish arriving) thought June, seed orders usually go out within 2 to 3 working days of arrival.
