I'm sure there are some restrictions on receiving foreign seeds, but.. outgoing? A gentleman I met in Kenya last year (having been there myself) has requested a number of seed packets be sent to his rural/slum community. Would I be breaking some US export law (or Kenya import.. hmm) by sending them? tag:ask.metafilter.com,2009:site.111413 Sun, 11 Jan 2009 20:36:32 -0800 export federal import kenya laws perishables regulations rules seeds Quarter Pincher http://ask.metafilter.com/38612/FrozenFoodFilter Can I eat this?
