What is the best way to store vegetable seeds I have collected?

Our Advice:

After cleaning and drying the seeds, place in dry paper packets like bags or small envelopes. Place these in a jar with a lid that can be sealed tightly. Store this in a dark, cool, dry, frost free place until you want to sow the seeds next spring.
