So I'm interested in experimenting and making my own mix for my birds but after an intense reasearch online to find stores selling bags of seed (preferably organic) it was nearly impossible.
Where do you guys get your seeds in bulk from? If you make your own mix, do you order from several different locations or is there a store where you are able to purchase all the seed together at once?
Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Seed in Bulk..... From Where?
I've used Herman Brothers http://www.hermanbros-seed.com/ and Jones Seed http://www.jones-seed.com/c-11-raw-grains.aspx only problem is the shipping is getting so high everywhere. Herman's will mix your own too once you decide what you want.
I would search my area for a feed store or specialty bird store. We have several around here so I price shopped and bought samples of their seed. Then just pick the best seed quality and price. Paying a bit more at a store is cheaper then shipping for me.
Good luck
