Cornell has done a lot of research into High Tunnels. Farmers in NY State often use tunnels I think. http://blogs.cornell.edu/hightunnels/

Can anyone recommend a seed catalog?

"Mr. Kurdieh’s love of dining out, his obsession with reading seed catalogs and his ability to talk to chefs about flavors have all helped Norwich Meadows Farm stand out."

Johnny's Selected Seed if you pick just one. Wild Garden Seed for a second. Johnnys will lead you to some small breeders without paper catalogs - Row 7 Seeds, Wild Boar Farms, Artisan Seeds. And if you stay intrigued, Market Gardening Success Group on Facebook is a great group to watch.

Fun fact: I was featured on cover of Johnny's Selected Seeds in 1996 or 1997 (98 catalog) (with Bright Lights Swiss Chard).

Agree, it's a great source specialty seed.

Peaceful Valley Farm Supply is also pretty good for organic seeds/ supplies. https://www.groworganic.com/

(I usually prefer not to reveal myself particularly with image on the net but it was too much to pass up. Besides I'm older and don't look like that now. I haven't grown commercial produce in 20+ years because it's not as romantic as it looks and is a lot of work and not that much profit. But it was really fun for a few years).

@dang:

It becomes wearisome when offering a controversial opinion in one thread only to have all recent posts in other threads immediatly downvoted.

Not that it's a huge deal but it sort of is because it discourages participation or any opinion outside of certain orthodoxies.

(or perhaps this post really was awful.. who knows).

Niiiiice! The 98 catalog is the first one I remember, though I got the home gardener one then.

If you have a local Ag Center, may have to travel outside of town, check there as well. Ours has a seed bank and exchange to try in small gardens (not commercial counts...ounces vs lbs of seed).

Baker Creek, Select Seeds, Logees,lilypons, Seed Savers Exchange, Kitazawa

It’s upstate New York: pretty much “water water everywhere, let’s all have a drink”.

Especially this year.
