We were berating the lack of contents in our seed tin earlier this weekend and today as it was drizzling we’ve tidied out a drawer or two (very rock n roll! ) and found this pack of carrot seeds wedged at the back of one of them.

On the reverse of the packet it says “Best before 9/2019”. That’s well okay as seeds can last ages (you’ve just more chance of failure as the months/years go by especially something like parsnips but it’s well worth giving old seeds a go!) so we’ll be sticking them in the ground come the spring. Here’s an interesting thing here about out of date seeds and how long they’ll keep for.
