Baker Creek keeps sending me surprise packages. In addition to the 1600 eggplant seeds they sent me earlier in the year, they’ve now sent me 600 cucumber seeds, 500 cowpea seeds, and about a pound of lima bean seeds.
I know this is my dream job, but there are times those numbers get daunting! Good thing they pay well.
I made the mistake of going to get fence posts during the spring baby chick sale. I now have a brooder box full of little cheepers in my bedroom. I probably could have resisted the cuteness, but I saw one that had Pasty Butt, and the staff person I told didn’t seem to know what I was talking about. I just didn’t have the heart to let the little thing suffer like that! And of course, you can’t raise just one chick.
I’d been planning to expand my flock, just not quite this soon.
LOL. Baker’s Creek-the gift that just keeps giving. I love those little chicks. My grandparents used to get some every year. The furnace was in the floor of the living room and had a grate on top that you could stand on to get warm in the AM.
So a little box of chicks right by the furnace was always a spring thing close to Easter time. Good luck with the chicks and getting all that stuff from Baker’s Creek dealt with.
Besides the free seeds...how do you like Baker Creek? Their ads keep popping up in my Indtagram Feed.
