Gosh I used to do the sprouting thing, a long, long time ago. I didn't buy any special seeds, though. Just regular veggie seeds or used mung beans and let them sprout and then harvested.

Maybe I was doing it wrong?

I am new to the sprouting thing, I buy them and eat them so I figured on cutting out the middleman and doing it myself since it is uber easy and I would be cutting out packaging waste etc...

So I guess I could go to Buntons or somewhere and just buy broccoli seeds?? I want to make sure they are organic seeds...no chemicals for me and my veggies.

I just remembered seeing various seeds for sprouting at Amazing Grace a loong time ago...medleys and such...

Nicole, I don't know anything about the company and can't testify for them, but this Website might have some info you could use:

I think I would also call Rainbow Blossom, Amazing Grace and Whole Foods to check out what they have ... I've never been in the market, but it seems likely to me that they would have some.

Over on Story Avenue between Adams and Buchanan on the right side there is an indoor grow shop/sate shop. You might want to try them out... Now if I can only remember the shops name.
They are only open on weekends.
Nice shop, nicer owners!
