List of Commonly Available Heirloom Seeds

"There are a lot of companies out there that offer heirloom seeds and often at very high prices. Heirloom seeds are attractive to many gardeners due to their non-GMO status and ability to harvest seeds from produce for future planting. The reality is that many seeds commonly sold at Wal-Mart, Home Depot, and similar businesses are in fact heirloom and very inexpensive. The very same seed variety packaged in a colorful mylar package will sell for 2-4X what the “budget” seed pack will sell for."
