i used to save my seeds but don't anymore. The seeds i do get are for carrots, radishes, sunflower a few flowers for the bees and anything that I just want to try. Tomatoes I get on flats, same with peppers.
I saved the seeds when I had to climb the telephone pole to use the phone at Haleys farm. I really miss that poker playing pig though.

I've got to redo my bee patch this year. Somewhere around 5 or 6 years ago, I seeded a 10 X 20 ft patch with wildflowers and then just left it alone. Last year, all that came up was milkweed. Great for monarchs, not so much for the bees though.
I belong to a couple of seed swapping groups, and just did a pack and trade at strawberry banke. I traded off most of my Roma seed for wild flower seed.

I can't wait to see what you do! Please post pix! Thank you for caring, many people don't understand that we have to protect the bees.

Hey Maggot, have you ever tried to grow mushrooms?

No I'm afraid of attracting weird life forms. Ernie Preve had a worm farm at the entrance of Bear brook. H was a very strange looking dude and for some reason worms and mushrooms tend to need weird looking dudes to tend them.
So no.

The hubs likes shiitake's, but they are so friggin expensive, I am looking into buying an inoculated log. The mushroom farm near me had a class last year, but it was on the same weekend as Jerry Jam.

I've always thought that mushrooms could grow like me. Put them in the dark and feed them bullshit, How hard can it be?

That's what I was thinking, throw it in a rubbermaid tub, in the corner of my basement, and call it good.
BTW, I've seen your pics and you could totally pass for a weird looking dude

I've tripped a few times and never had a bad one. I spent the whole time laughing.
I wouldn't trip now. I'm too old for that shit and I'd be worried about dying.

I'm going to try and grow garlic this year. I bought a couple of 6 packs from a local greenhouse. I've got a little 4 X 4 raised bed that I'm going to transfer them to this weekend.
