BeachySeeds.com is now up and running. I feel there is something for everyone, both new and experienced growers. The reason for this venture is on my website, so feel free to look, and hopefully it makes sense to all. I am sure some think I am out to get rich, and others think all sorts of other nasty things. If I make money that will be a real beyond expectations, my real hope is just to break even. Everything from breakeven on will be gravy on the cake. I have made hundreds of friends over the years, and hope to maintain those relationships.

Seeds from 2002-2004 are currently available, and 2005 stocks will be posted as soon as seeds are harvested and counts are verified.

Hopefully in the future, more products will be available. Those will be anything that I feel the market does a poor job of supplying.

Thanks for everyones help, especially Tom Privitera, and the rest of the crowd at BP.com that has made this possible. I look forward to helping as many growers as possible to grow Beachy Seeds.

I took a look at your site Tom. It looks real good. With all the requests you get, you could be charging a fortune, but everything looks fair and reasonable. Good luck with it.

Before anyone starts bashing Tom for selling seeds let us remember that Beachy seeds have been sold for many years by other merchants. It looks like Tom is now a vertically inclined direct merchant.

Best wishes for a successful venture Tom!

Looks like Next-Biggie has been upstaged. What else is there to say?

Here is a hot tip about Beachyseeds.com. The 341 Beachy (also known as Beachy Cross #3 '03)is as good of a seed as you are going to find anywhere for $5. It is the same cross as the 1097.5 Beachy (845x723). I grew both last year and the 341 kicked the 1097.5 butt! I had a stem split on the 1097.5 Beachy fruit (like lots of them do), but the 341 fruit did not have this problem. It was big and ugly and white, just like the 1097.5. For $5 you will be very happy if you grow this seed!

OK Tom, how was that for sucking up? Now will you swap seeds with me again this year? Seriously, for the rest of you, the 341 Beachy is a pretty hot ticket!

Tip #2, the 409 Beachy (2003) is an 845/723 remake.

Best of luck Tom.
Sorry i couldnt find out what seed Kreig used to win the Virginia State Fair.
He told me"i just bought a Beachy seed one of the cheap ones".
Kreig's pumpkin was 150lbs over the 2nd place pumpkin.

Don't rule out any of the no-name crosses. A very cheap way to get some excellent genetics.
