” For common varieties at economical prices check out your local Wal-Mart. “

Our screwed-up Walmart has already taken down its seed displays - guess they’ve never heard of “Fall Crops”, even though we live in a 2-growing-season area...

(BTW - is it just this area, or are turnip seeds in short supply all over?? I’ve been to every store that I know of that sells garden supplies, or even seeds, all over Southern NM, and nobody has them... Does anybody know if this is a local hiccup, or is it a national phenomenon???)

Would you please add me to your ping list? This topic interests me very much, and I am beginning to realize the importance of being informed about things like this. Thanks!

Dollar General quite often has the smaller (1#? 1.5#?) Danish canned hams (sufficient for dinner-for-two, or for cutting up for soups or beans..) I think they’re in the $2-#3 range... ;)

I'll take a look around my area tomorrow and give you some feedback.

Hazards Seeds shows 16 varieties of turnip seeds in stock.

What is a good place to find Dak hams? The Walmarts around us have either stopped stocking it or just keep running out.
