Thank you for the welcome and for the wealth of knowledge these threads contain.

Yes they were 20cents each so I grabbed 2-3 packs of each. and will look for more next trip.

I'm blessed to have an elder neighbor who lays in several gardens and we have been discussing our spring plans since the first frost last fall.

Last fall we had more blueberries of late variety that were still bearing up to frost.

Quite a change from 2007 when a late freeze left us with out a single berry for the year..

kinda like Garfield the cat , better eat all the lasagna, may not be any tomorrow..relates to can, freeze and
dry-store when possible.. we are in for a rough one.

Wow you were lucky to find them for 20 cents. I was there today and they were $1.00 per package.

I’m still waiting for my Heirloom Acres seeds to arrive. I emailed them yesterday to find out when they would be here. They wrote back that they are so behind because of the demand. So, I guess we aren’t the only ones preparing.

I always thought Garfield was a smart cat.

above is real life, and may happen any year, to any of us.

I am so glad you were able to find the cheap seeds, I always loved finding them, as I could afford to buy anything that I wanted, even flowers that don’t grow here.......but I planted them anyway.

I am so glad to see the many new names posting here, it means more knowledge for all of us.
