Keepin em dry would be good. I've always just kept mine in a plastic ziplock bag in a drawer.

in a film cannister with some dry grains of rice in the fridge.
Aloha and yes, keeping seeds is vital to ones next crops and you ask a good question.How old are the seeds? You indictated that you are not going to use them for awhile. May I suggest then that storing them in a ziplock bag or airtight container in the fridge.
Also you can store them in an airtight container in a dark dry area. I would suggest that you check them every now and then to ensure no mold starts to take place.

i just received the seeds and they are still in the same package that they came in. ( in a little zip lock bag, the bag is in a small cylinder). I have the cylinder in a cabinet. Just want to make sure they stay good.
Can you freeze them?

You want to store them with a desiccant which will solve the moisture problem. I've frozen them before, but currently have about 30 different types (I haven't been able to grow for 2 years now) in the envelopes they came in in a large sealed plastic container filled with rice. You can also use those little packets that say "Do not eat" that companies use to package with their products. Whenever I come across one I just throw it in a bag that I keep in the frig.
