To customers with mailing addresses outside the U. S. we offer a flat rate $9.50 postage/handling fee for orders up to (and including) 5 packets of seed using Global Priority Mail.  This mail service is available to most countries and takes 4 to 6 days.  There is no insurance available using  Global Priority Mail, therefore there is a  chance that your seed shipment will not reach you.  If you wish insurance on the seed shipment we use Air Parcel Post.  Air Parcel Post can be insured.  The cost is somewhat higher than Global Priority Mail.  Please request via e-mail a cost estimate from us  for Air Parcel Post w/ insurance to you.

    You can get an estimate of shipping charges and options for yourself at   the US Postal Service websitehttp://www.usps.com/  .  Click on "calculate postage" then on  "International".  Choose Air Parcel Post as the mode of mailing.  A typical seed order mailing weighs 5 to 6 ounces.   This will give you an estimate of your shipping charges.

 You can also send us via e-mail a request to learn the cost of Air Parcel Post to you with insurance  and we will send back a mailing  estimate.
