    Good question - I'll ask around and will post what I find. Anyone else have a book suggestion on this topic?

    I did get a recommendation: "Seed to Seed: Seed Saving and Growing Techniques for Vegetable Gardeners" by Suzanne Ashworth and Kent Whealy. It was published by Seed Savers Exchange, where you can get more info about it - or on Amazon.

    I loved this video. It provides a fantastic point that I don't think many seed savers think about.

    I know it's a year ago but what about this book...

    Seed Saver's Handbook [Paperback]

    978-1899233014

    I own a copy but it's in Australia. I left it there 16 years ago. I don't garden much in the UK. Too busy sadly.
