We have a large cardboard box filled with garden seed. All are assorted but not counted as to variety. In the mail we keep receiving seed catalogs from companies,Gurneys, henry fields, Jung's,etc. All their pictures look really great,but alot of increase stuff. My son bought a seed planter 2 yrs ago,made out of aluminum, and the cost was less than $60.00, they show them now in the seed catalogs for over $140.00.That is really a nice piece of equipment, saves bending and stooping.
With all the snow we have,it may be June before we get the garden in.lol. I'm already tired of the winter and cold.This morning it was -29 deg,made it to 0 deg now,real heatwave.
Our new item this year is going to be a couple of Bing cherry trees,need well drained soil and a pollinator, we can supply the well drained soil,all sand.According to the map,we're in Zone 4,and one of the catalogs says it can be grown in 4 or 5,will check them out. The peach tree we have says it was meant for zone 5,but so far it was still growing last summer, produced one nice peach,hopefully more this coming year.
