I hope to start air-prune beds this year for the seeds of plums, peaches, apples, pears, etc. I collected from last year and also room for this years collections. I hope to get wild plums, serviceberry, hackberry, and hazelnut.
I will be saving pepper, tomatoe, and squash at least from the garden this year.

Nice list. 
Do you have a date set for completion of your air pruning bed?

I hope to have the bed for the collected seeds built in April with second one shortly after.

I use square plastic peanut “jars” with the 4" lids to hold the seed packets or diy envelopes. I make the paper envelopes from thin paper and very small because paper ends up taking more room than the seeds!
I store them in the fridge shelf where the butter normally goes (upper shelf). I leave the lid on loosely so the jars don’t retain moisture that can condense when the cold jar is opened in the kitchen.
I have 2 jars and labeled so i know which one to open.

Is it time consuming to make the envelopes? Do you use tape?
I cheat! I cut the corners from envelopes in junk mail. Usually 1 maybe 2 corners are reusable.
I cut them so i can fold the other 2 edges and use elmers glue (cheaper than tape)!
I made a video on theRainHarvester YouTube.
