Four more seed packets came and this finishes what I got. Some blackberry plants will come whenever it's right for them to send them and I'll get some herbs from Lowes in early spring.

My plan is to have early spring food to eat and mid-summer to eat and fall/winter to eat. Will it happen - who knows?

Here are the seeds:
Tokyo Cross Hybrid Turnip - 35 days to eating them - got them because they are an early spring crop and are still good ones to plant in fall. They can be harvested when two inches across.

Tomato Fourth of July Hybrid - ripens here in June to eat.
Also have some cherries that are really early.

Tomato Better Boy Hybrid - 72 days to eating

Tomato Burpees Long Keeper - 78 days to eating for me in fall then wrapping the tomatoes to last six to twelve weeks.

That's the plan but figure in too much rain, not enough rain, too much sun, not enough sun, etc., etc.. and hope I get some tomatoes at some time and some of the veggies I plant actually produce.

A few days ago I received a catalogue from Johnny’s Selected Seeds. I plan to spend some time looking at my options for next spring, and I hope that this season I will be able to start my seeds much earlier. This season, seeds for cherry tomatoes and jalapenos are definitely in, along with lots of basil and chives. Not so many summer squash, because we had so many last summer that I grew sick of them. Some parsley and cilantro are musts.

I have no doubt that you will be rewarded for your efforts.
