[Sca-cooks] Seeds for period vegetables

[Stefan li Rous]

Petru asked:
<<< I'd like to know if you can recommend any reliable source for period
vegetable seeds (Montreal is a 5B rusticity area, so I can't grow  
everything
over here, but most of the basic stuff should be all right). >>>

Perhaps this file in the PLANTS, HERBS AND SPICES section of the  
Florilegium might be of use:
seeds-msg         (60K) 12/27/00    Sources for period plants and seeds.

I just checked and I have a fairly large file of addition stuff to  
add to this file as well. If you wish, I could send that to you by  
email. Or ask and I'll see about getting this file updated and the  
new version online.

This section also has several good articles on medieval gardens, some  
for large areas and some for small ones.
