Seeds! Seeds! Seeds!


Today is an exciting day. I wanted so badly to get home from Prince Albert. My seeds had arrived. Look at them. Now if only the snow would melt then I could plant them in my garden and call myself a gardener.

I bought heritage seeds from a company in Oregon called Heritage Organics. They sell seed packs, so you don't get to choose which seeds you get, just the size really. I was limited because I am of course from Canada. So I got the biggest pack I could. My mom and I will split the seeds. There are so many.

So this is what I got. A family pack that is supposed to supply enough food for four people to eat for a year. I also got a kitchen herb pack, a tomato lovers pack (mmm) and a salad pack. I don't think I will need quite this much, but they report seed storage of up to 5 years. Please don't take this as a plug for Heritage Organics. I have purchased seeds and they got them to me. Before you run out and spend a small fortune why not keep watching here to see if they grow into something more than just spindly weeds. Tomorrow I am going to give a nice little discussion about how my garden will be set up. I can't wait to start growing.

Okay, as far as my goals went. I got up (I hit snooze, a bad habit I must break) had a shower, brushed my teeth and had a banana. The world is right. I got home and unloaded the car (a feat I normally have trouble with), and even shovelled a bit of the driveway. Good for me! I'm clean and I got some exercise.

Blessings to all.
Becky.
