JACKSON, Wyo. — Teton Rental just acquired a new local seed co-op to meet all your garden needs this spring and summer! What’s so special about Snake River Seed Co-op? They are small and very local! Many companies buy seeds from all over the world, filling packets with their company logo in big warehouses with machines and robots, and computers. Snake River Seed Cooperative is a collective of 54 small-scale family farmers working together to produce a wide diversity of locally-adapted seeds across the Intermountain West.

Due to the careful attention paid by the growers during each generation of planting, selecting, and saving, these seeds have been finely adapted to this truly unique place on earth, with many cold-hardy, high-altitude loving, and drought-tolerant varieties to choose from.

Even more noteworthy, however, is that these seeds are 100% non-GMO, open-pollinated, and untreated. In fact, each of Snake River Seed Cooperative’s seed farmers has taken a pledge to keep their field or garden free of any synthetic herbicide, pesticide, or fertilizer, so you don’t have to worry about a thing when you plant them in your garden (except maybe about how many you can fit)!

As farmers themselves, Snake River Seed Cooperative delights in boosting biodiversity – offering unique Great Basin natives alongside beloved heirloom varieties to give Intermountain West gardeners a bounty of over 350 varieties to play with.

SRSC believes that sharing seed-saving knowledge with farmers and the public in our region is vital to growing a robust, regional seed shed. When you purchase seeds from Snake River Seed Cooperative, you support local family farms, robust biodiversity, small businesses, and the many seed-saving education classes SRSC puts on throughout the year. (Not to mention their Community Seed Donation program which has already donated over 1000 packets of seeds to deserving Intermountain West groups in 2021 alone!)

Snake River Seed Cooperative growers truly believe in the natural abundance of seeds and grow their top-of-the-line seeds using sustainable methods in low-input systems that more closely mirror most home gardens. This ensures that the seeds in their packets will perform well in any garden, including yours!

Don’t forget to get a SOLO Stove for the chilly Spring time nights. The Solo Stove packs a Signature 360° Airflow Design™ in a compact size with minimal smoke. Whether you’re at the campsite, on the lake, at the trailhead, tailgating, or even in the back yard it’s not the same without a fire.

No one wants to constantly dodge campfire smoke and have their clothes and hair smell for hours after. Our design philosophy is all about maximizing the joy of the moment. Our Signature 360° Airflow Design™ creates a super-efficient burn that’s not only mesmerizing to watch but a joy to sit around and make memories.

Strategically placed holes in the double-wall structure draw in air from the bottom and feed the heated oxygen to the top, resulting in a spectacular secondary burn. The best part? Nearly no smoke and minimal ash left to clean!
