Enough seed is provided for a year-round garden for four, along with an excess to hold in reserve in case a particular crop does not do well. However, couples who are looking at their seed bank as a food safety net in the event of an economic collapse or societal disruption should purchase the Safe Seed Bank. The larger bank will provide a greater cushion in the event of a crop failure.

The Lock Box comes with a laminated Texas Ready Mittleider Gardening Chart and a free copy of The Vegetable Gardener's Bible. This book provides detailed instructions on how to cultivate each variety in your bank (light, water and soil requirements; when and how to plant, etc.). The other books offered on our website are also strongly recommended for those wishing to maximize their harvest and pursue a lifestyle of true self-sustainability

All seed banks come with a 5 Year Guarantee

Because we only sell USDA certified seed, Texas Ready seed banks is the only seed bank company offering a full Five Year Guarantee on the quality of their seed stock.

Any variety included in your bank that doesn't meet or exceed the USDA germination standards for that breed (within five years from the date of purchase) will be replaced at no charge. Seeds must be sown according to the standard requirements for that breed; if we don't have the exact variety in stock, your seeds will be replaced with a similar variety.

AVAILABILITY UPDATE: USA SHIPMENTS AVAILABLE ONLY Due to heightened demand, we are currently experiencing a four week backlog.
