We have been researching seed saving ourselves :)

This list is great! It has a lot of suppliers I didn't know of. There are two omissions I see, though. You should include:

Renee's Garden Seeds
6116 Highway 9
Felton, CA 95018
1-888-880-7228

and

Territorial Seed Company
Territorial Seed Company
PO Box 158
Cottage Grove, OR 97424
Phone Orders: 800-626-0866
Fax Orders: 888-657-3131
Customer Service/Gardening Questions: 541-942-9547

Both sources supply heritage seed, but they specialize in open-pollinated varieties rather than specifically heritage ones. Territorial Seed specifically focuses on plants that grow well in the specialized climate of the coastal Pacific Northwest.
