Looking forward to this year’s growing season. I take vegetable seedlings to our towns Help House that provides food for those in need. Last summer I was told that there were 20 families that had started Victory Gardens. This will be our 4th year of providing seedlings and growing information. Going from a few people taking the plants to 20 families is very encouraging…hope more families will take advantage of the seedlings. They are free, I don’t charge them. Just want more people to feel that they are in control of their lives and have the power in their own hands to make a difference for themselves and their families. Thank you for having a wide variety of seeds and offering plants that will do well in our short cool summer.
