05411-PK-P1Park Seed has several great organic seed choices, including their Simply Salad Garden mix that looks very pretty and a rainbow of radishes, both of which would work in the fall garden. Plus, shop their 20 seed packets for $20 sale for up to 65% off.

2536GPJohnny Seeds are also on sale, up to 75% off. This cute Ridgeline romaine lettuce is only $1 for a packet of organic pelleted seed.

Also in the Burpee sale shop, this salt and pepper set is pretty adorable. I see it in a gift basket with a collection of heirloom seeds and this handprinted flour sack towel.
