Re: Seed Catalog
That's awesome! Wow you guys are on the ball!
I need a professional to come over and tell me what can grow in what soils lol!! I haven't had much success and I don't know why. I've always had amazing gardens, flower and vegetable, despite my dislike (more like hatred) of gardening. Since I've moved here I haven't had much success but I've never worked in this type of soul before...one day I'll figure it out

Re: Seed Catalog
Start with a "soil test kit", to see the ph of your soil. http://www.leevalley.com/en/garden/page ... 78&p=65366
There's gotta be a hundred books at your public library.
I also heard of people that buy bales of potting soil or peat moss to use in the chicken house for litter: happy chickens happy plants

Re: Seed Catalog
This week I have been going through the seeds I have left from last year and making a list of what I need to order. I am ordering from William Dam, Verseys and Terra Edibles this year. Also plan on ordering some strawberry plants, and possibly raspberries.
Oh and potatoes from Eagle Creek and a couple heritage apple trees from a local nursery.

Re: Seed Catalog
JimW, apple trees from a local nursery? Do tell! I need plum and cherry.
I love seed catalogs and pore over them religiously every year, even though I'm pretty much VERY well set up with my own saved seeds. Gotta check to see if there's something cool I want to try.

Re: Seed Catalog
I have my Veseys and Dam's so far. I AM SO FORTUNATE TO HAVE THEM NEXT DOOR!! SOOO many seeds, beautiful trial gardens.... and best of all... they 'rent' a patch of land here for some trials... and when they grow all their winter squashes... well... lets just say, I don't have to plant any of my own that year, lol. And, best of best of all... I get $400 for that patch... and of course, I spend it there!! Win win for us both... although I have a tidy credit there now, and if I want.. I can grab some cash out of it.
They have a new winter squash... butternut... dont have my book handy at the moment.... a small single serving one, I am excited to try!! Love winter squash!
