I am in a few seed swap groups and have shared what we harvested this year. Which consisted of Harlowe's Heirloom Okra and Holstein cow peas. In return I got several different varieties of Heirloom seeds. I have a few extra and also have ordered 65.00 worth of Bakers Creek and another 4000 seeds from the seed guy. When we go to planting, I will make sure I post what I have left to share. Being the Heirloom variety mix, of course we just couldn't go "natural".. The husband likes to "throw me off" at times and so, now I have some Purple Cauliflower and some strange looking lettuce stuff that is supposed to be cabbage. Now,for the fun part. How to cook these things without taking away very much of the nutritional value.. Ah, the farmer's life is made for me.... lol <
Never a dull moment around here...


There are times I want to do some seed swopping then I think some people just do not understand what real organic nonGMO seed is so would need to personally know the person and there gardening practices. Nothing personal, I just like keeping my garden as organic as I can:)

True, never a dull moment here ether! HA ha ha!

Oh, I can relate to that. We use NO chemicals in our garden... and I wonder if some people actually do when they send seeds.. So Far, I have a handful of people that I can trust.
