Hi Forrest,

I highly doubt you will find a source for Lady's slipper seeds and if
you do, I can almost guarantee they won't grow.  Orchid seeds need to
have a special fungus present in order to germinate.  Most comercially
available orchids are grown in steril containers on special nutrient
medium...much like tissue culture.
