Planning on plant my first plot of grains in 22'. Preferably not wanting to have to buy an acres worth of wheat every year, but I've heard the horror stories of the Monsanto monsters. Any tips for saving seed?

if you start with heirloom/non GMO and save that weed you "should" be good  - people her can help you find a source close to your home if you list for it. PLEANY of sources for good seeds like you are looking for..

i save all kinds of seeds but no grains so others can help you with that as well.

you save what you start with  - hope this helps - cheers!
