I think I’m about on every seed catalog list out there. They all look wonderful, with their colorful photographs of juicy, ripe fruit and veggies. It can be overwhelming.
But last year, when my son was born, my husband and I made a conscious decision to go organic. I stopped using synthetic pesticides around the house, and we’ve slowly been buying more and more organic products. So it only makes sense for me to buy organic seeds – that’s why I chose to order from Seeds of Change, which sells only certified organic products. But you know, I really think there are a number or good seed catalogs out there, even if you don’t choose to go with organic stock.
In my house, I’m not allowed to go the nursery by myself because I’m likely to load up the car with plants. The same rule should apply to seeds. My eyes might just be a little bigger than my garden space.
A huge box of seeds arrived – peppers, squash, beans, peas, melon, and – of course – tomatoes. I also ordered packets of seeds recommended to attracting pollinators to the garden.
Will there be room? I have no idea… I hope so. I planned on saving half of all the seeds for next spring, anyway. But there’s no time to worry about that right now… I’ve got seeds to start and garden beds to dig.
