Thread Name: BS: Seed Catalogs comin' in the Mailbox
Subject: RE: BS: Seed Catologs comin' in the Mailbox
I've tried to give it up, but each year stuff starts to grow and it gives off oxygen which I can't resist. It was just easy stuff like beans I grew first, but then I got in with this crowd called Seeds of Diversity and it's been bad ever since. They keep seeds every year what they got handed down from their ancestors and they're pretty potent. We share them with each other, which is OK, but I keep seeing more and more young people taking up the habit. And you don't even need money -- the seeds are bartered for stamps, other seeds or scrip from Canadian Tire stores. I'm thinking of trying basil this year ... in Zone 8! Where will it all end?
