First post, been reading a while...

Is there a way to acquire seeds througout the "community" and not involving sellers from out of the country (US for me)? Buying seeds is kind of a waste of time (every bag has some) and easy way to get caught. On many sights, they say the safest and easiest way to get seeds are from other growers because you know the strain and know what you're getting...
But this site requests no begging, asking for, email addresses, etc....So my question is, for those of you willing to answer, how do you acquire them?
My situation will clear this up-
Moved to new location, know nobody, trust not many, skeptical about sending $50- to the netherlands, want to experiment with seeds (any kind, any gender, type not important). So what's the next "safe" step? Join a hydroponics support group and hope...
Your thoughts

Thanks!
