I think an upright freezer is a good option as well. It’s much easier to organize than a chest freezer. I would stay away from the Fisher Scientific brand, we had 4 of them and they were just awful, always failing etc. They may be better made now, as this was several years ago, when they first started making them in China.

Subject: [SOS-PCA] Any suggestions for seed storage freezer?

Does anyone have suggestions or recommendations of freezers to use for seed storage?  Our area has recently gotten funds for a freezer but we are at a loss as to what our options are.  I know this is a bit of an open ended question but any advice is appreciated.

Thanks,
