Cool, dark, dry place.

I keep mine under the basement stairs in a little box thingy. I've had great success on seeds up to 5 years old this way.

If I were planning on keeping for 10 + years they would be vacuum sealed put in the freezer.

I germed some bag seed that was about 10 years old.. and it was fire!!
i just kept it in a wooden box away from light.

I add a couple pieces of rice to the packs to suck up any moisture and put them in the fridge. This works for me personally.

Depending on what you have, I offer storage facilities.
