Seed Saver Exchange Seeds Have Arrived!!!

With the warm weather in Late October/Early November, I finally got my container vegetable garden cleaned up and put away for the winter. Today, the Seed Saver Exchange Seeds arrived. Seeds to dream about growing for the coming season. These wonderful seeds out of Decorah, Iowa are not Genetically Modified Organisms(GMO). They are heirlooms, passed down through families and friends for many, many years. And the great thing is that if you happen to miss a few bean or pea pods or you let the lettuce bolt(go to seed) you can save those seeds for next year. Very Cool! I did this with the Tom Thumb Peas in 2010. These bush peas were grown in a big pot. A few of the pods were missed so became dried up peas. AND next year's seed(2011) made this year's peas.
