Vegans Living Off the Land: Seeds I bought for 2015 Garden year

Thanks to generous donations from family members, we were able to purchase seeds for the upcoming garden year. We were able to buy 60 varieties of seeds from Veganseeds company, 10 Luffa seeds, 1000 Goji berry seeds, and 50 Dino Kale seeds.

From Veganseeds company, I bought "Emergency Seed Vault - 60 varieties of seeds" (non-gmo, non-hybrid, Heirloom, Vegan seeds). The Seed Vault included different types of Tomatoes, Beans, Melons, peppers, and Squash. Unique seeds added to the Seed Vault were Asparagus, Kohlrabi, Cauliflower, Anise, Echinacea, Swiss Chard, Arugula, Rutabaga.

We bought the Luffa seeds on amazon at "Luffa Bathroom Sponge 10 Seeds - Gourds!". Luffas are fibrous internal structure of the gourd that converts into sponges after 12 inches long. They climb or spread just like cucumbers and need very similar growing treatment. They can be eaten like a cucumber, and you can dry them to make loofah bathroom sponges. When ripe, leave in a dry place, and the outer skin will come away revealing the loofah beneath. Wash them in mild disinfectant and place in a warm place to dry completely.
Harvest when 6" long for eating. They are slow to grow, and it is best to start indoors according to gardeners.
