Sent some to @Farrier1987 last year. DOn't know if he grew them or not. I think @windwalkingwolf has any of my seeds from that either.

Thanks for the nudge, Tom. Yes, it’s definitely time to start planning.
For my flower gardens, I’m going to look into companion planting. I have the books “Roses Love Garlic” and “Carrots Love Tomatoes”.
We have used some of the ideas for the vegetable garden, but we don’t go all out.

Tom, Baker Creek has free shipping US/Canada/Mexico which might make it easier to buy your one packet of squash if you need to! I really hate to pay shipping on one or two packs of seed. They will also send out a bonus packet of cabbage seed (ask me how I know :))

I have been procrastinating going through my saved seed, because once I do, I will want to plant. But it's about time to get peppers started, so I need to do that soon. Pepper planting will be a day-long affair between sorting seeds, digging out trays and soil, and oh-so-anally carefully placing each seed. These are important rituals which require a minimum of distractions :rofl: and I have some free time tomorrow, all being well, so will start going through my seeds later tonight and hopefully post a list of extras. I love sharing and trading seeds!!! @@WLLady , I would love a few of those pumpkins! I am reasonably certain I don't have any Lakota squash, but you never know. I have an enormous photo album-type book to keep my most important seeds organized, and I know there's no squash of any type (yuk) in there except for zucchini and pumpkin, but I also have a boot box full of miscellany from seed swaps and impulse buys and free-with-purchase seeds roflmbo .

It IS Brunswick! I placed two orders because I forgot a couple of items and received the bonus cabbage seeds twice :).

It's a lovely "creamy" flavour. Be warned - chickens like it too!

I've made a list of extra seeds I have, to give away or trade. I will make a new thread and anybody who wants some or has their own extras to offer can jump in.
