You can buy gourd seeds online from several different seed companies. Typically, local farm and garden center have them. Any store that sells flower and vegetable seeds usually has gourd seeds.
Burpee, American and Ferry Morse are popular seed companies
Our dollar general had great seeds very reasonable! If you have any fresh grown from friends, I have had luck with gourds (and pumpkins) drying the seeds and using the seeds the next season.
We bought some from Walmart last year so just check around at Lowe's or Home Depot as they all have a large collection of seeds right now.
Otherwise you can order online from eBay, Amazon, and all of the seed stores.
Thank you everyone, I'm going to get the seeds.
Good - just in case you have never grown gourds and especially if you wish to dry them, be sure to do some reading up on the subject so you will have great success and lots of fun.
Too bad the internet wasn't around when I started gardening years ago!! One other tip is I had a lot of luck training my gourd plants to grow up a trellis. The first year many rotted on the wet ground which was so disappointing (and stinky and yucky). The second year, when they went up the trellis they were smaller, and a few fell from the weight, but the bulk were lovely and unusual.
