Around here -- Virginia -- you couldn't get mint to keep from coming back if you tried, except maybe with a good dose of Roundup. So you may not need to save seeds. Probably someone at the local nursery could tell you if mint winters over (and over and over) in your zone.

Over the hills, in WV, here, it takes about 10 lbs of salt, 25 gallons of kerosene, a couple of old tires and a bulldozer...

I think that after a nuclear war, the cockroaches would be keeping the harsh sun off their heads by lounging under mint plants.
