Our seeds are on their way!
I just checked my e-mail, and there was a tracking notice. Continue reading “Our seeds are on their way!”

Time to write just about anything in a focused manner lately has been hard to come by, so here’s a sort of organized bullet list both for me and anyone that is curious about what I’ve been up to in the last few days.
Short term sale from long term loss.
When we drove by one of our local stores not long ago to do a large grocery run, I noticed they were having a “customer appreciation sale” with everything marked 25% off.

I may eventually revert to the idea of having this stand just for typical houseplants.
Making our 2019 seed list–part 2
Notice: I’m a bit tuckered, but I want to get at least part of this out tonight, so I hope to post part 3 either late tomorrow or Monday.
My partner will swear to his death that he is a black thumb. “If you want something to fail, let me plant it,” he says. Continue reading “Making our 2019 seed list–part 2”
