Make sure you do not use hybrid seeds. The seeds of hybrid plants generally do not produce at second planting. You can't take seeds from a planted hybrid plant for next season. Will grow a nice plant but no produce. This is from experience with corn many years ago.

I'm pretty sure those ones aren't hyrbid but, yes, excellent point.

A lot of people talk about this website -- Emergency Storable Food Dehydrated Disaster Water Purifier - eFoodsDirect, but they don't ship outside of north america.

Just noticed this topic, thanks you for the link. I received inspiration a couple months back that seeds are going to be essential in the last days. I encourage everyone to get non-hybrid seeds into their food storage.
