Seed Swap
Maybe we could set up a seed swap or seed give away to get a new veggie or get someone started growing heirloom stuff and collecting their own seeds. Just a thought. I for one don't like relying on home depot, lowes, or the nursery to supply my plants. I like making my own. |

Baker Creek (rareseeds.com) is a great place for about any heirloom seed you could think of. Their catalog is also full of helpful little tidbits. |

I find it really enjoyable to be able to reproduce each years garden myself. I also think the pure strain veggies have a better flavor than the geneticly modified hybrid stuff they push on us now days. Just my opinion though. |

We got a really late start on our peppers this year. We raise gypsy and cayenne peppers. Im hoping they still do well despite our late start.
