Hi Everyone! I've made my list of what I'm wanting to grow this year (list to come!) and today I'm going to look through what seeds I already have before ordering anything.
Last year I got two *shoeboxes* full of seeds at an auction for next to nothing. They are dated for 2004 I think. Last year germination was still great, this year should be good too.
Here's the thing -- Two boxes full of seeds is more than I'll ever be able to plant before they get old and won't germinate any more. Even though I got such a great deal on them, I hate to see seeds go to waste. I'd like to share what I have instead of letting them get old. I'm going to catalog what all I have and either divide it into mixed packets or just list what varieties I have - don't know which yet. When I figure it out I'll post, and anyone who wants some of these seeds can have them for cost of postage. These are standard seeds - not organic, and many are hybrids, but they are good seeds and will produce good food for your family. Off hand I think there are tomatoes, eggplant, bell peppers, squashes, beans, peas.... About half are flower seeds to pretty up the garden. Germination rates should still be good.
If any fellow homestead bloggers are intersted in some "free" seed, please comment so I know if there is even an interest. Like I said, I'm just going to figure out what postage will be and thats what you pay - I'm not trying to make money off this, just keep from being wasteful and bless someone who needs them. I'd like to limit this offer to other homestead bloggers, unless you know *of* someone who can and will use them. |
