On their front page they state that due to the economic uncertainties they strongly suggest everyone order seeds NOW! True to their word, they are already posting categories that are indeed sold out! <<<

That is about what I expected to happen.

I am even hearing folks on the political talk shows, say they are planting a garden this year.

To me, it is not only the shortage of money, but also the danger of food shortages and contamination of foods.

Grow all you can, as fast as you can.

BTW, in the past 2 days I have put up 7 quarts and 6 pints of tomatoes, 7 quarts of dill pickled cauliflour, 4 pints of pears and 3 pints of broccoli. Dried and drying items are bananas, pineapple, strawberries, cantaloupe, bell pepper and jalapenos. Have added to my stock of white potatoes and sweet potatoes too. Still have some fresh broccoli, cauliflour, squash and assorted salad veggies to use. And we have eaten well again this week. Not a bad haul for composting this week. I hope this continues for a long while, it will help to keep get us stocked up for bad times.
