What's everyone's preferred seed vendor? (self.gardening)

Lot of stuff I’ve been reading say to buy around mid December when the seed catalogs come out, but which ones?

I usually just get seeds and plants from Home Depot, it’s done the job, but I want to find some nice heirlooms and/or varieties they don’t carry. Also screw “white label” seeds. But that’s another discussion.

So this last year I got some different seeds from Lee Valley, but I wasn’t a huge fan, still felt like Home Depot just under another name.

So what’s your guys favorite website or place to get seeds. And when do you find the best time to order.

I can second Johnny's seeds and have gotten quite a few good uncommon varieties from them.

There's also MI Gardener that I've gotten several heirloom varieties for a very reasonable cost. YouTuber and Master gardener who eventually opened a physical store dedicated to teaching others how grow more plants than they kill.

I've also used Rare seeds for other less common varieties
