Seed ordering
We encourage all members to both order and pay using our online system to save unnecessary administration time. If you do not have access to a computer yourself (or someone to help input your order), then please contact the Seed Request Manager Chris Parsons, 33 Pemberton Road, Newton Aycliffe, County Durham, DL5 4RW, UK, 07486 386288 for assistance as early as possible and certainly before posting your order. The online request system will be live from 01 December 2025 until the closing date of Friday 02 January 2026, which is the final closing date for receipt of ALL seed orders.

To order online, please log on to the SRGC website at www.srgc.net with your email address and password. If you’ve not logged in previously, or forgotten your password, you will be able to create or reset it when you try to login. If you haven’t used the online portal before, please use it this year, as the system is very simple. 

Please note the restrictions regarding Surplus seed orders for members living in the EU, Australia, and Japan.  Further detailed information is available on the Seed Ordering page on the menu above.

 
Seed Distribution Procedure
The West of Scotland Group will manage the distribution of orders. The seed distribution will begin in mid-January and all main requests will be sent out by late January. Donors’ seed requests are completed first, then non-donors' in order of their arrival date followed by surplus seed requests. This means that main and surplus requests are sent out separately and may arrive a few weeks apart. The whole distribution should be completed by the end of January. Please allow for delays in the postal system, waiting until after 23rd February 2026 before enquiring about your seed - especially if you live in the EU or Australia, where special arrangements are being made. All seed queries can be sent to . We will ensure that emails reach the relevant manager.
