Title	Washington's Small-Seeded Vegetable Seed Industry
Note	Please be aware - when this collection was created in 2005, the Extension service included a number of external links and other formats which have since broken. In 2016-2017 MASC tracked down as many of these as we could, and those we could recover can be found by searching for the missing item's title at https://research.libraries.wsu.edu/xmlui/handle/2376/4333
Description.Abstract	Apples may have better press, but vegetable seed for world-wide production have their beginnings in Washington's distinct dry and marine climates. Many of the seed companies in Washington are represented by third generation growers, attesting to a tradition of high quality. History, business aspects, seed conditioning, and information about different crops--production acreage and value--and companies are included. Among the small-seeded crops grown here are onions, beets, oriental vegetables, radishes, carrot, parsnips, parsley, coriander, dill, arugula, broccoli raab, endive, lettuce, rapeseed, spinach, brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, collard, cress, kale, kohlrabi, rutabaga, and turnips.
