That is a great idea. Another thing I like to do is when I buy fruits and veggies at the store, I save the seeds. I save shoots off of potatoes and onions. Then anything I use to cook with out of the garden, I save the seeds. That way at the start of spring next year I got plenty of starter shoots or seeds.
