Garden Seeds

It's that time of year for seed catalogs! My favorite for the past couple of years has been from an organization in Iowa, the Seed Savers Exchange. I love reading about the history of where the seeds come from. Who wouldn't want to grow corn that originally came smuggled from Europe in a horse's feed sack?

I also found a less expensive site for heritage seeds,

www.http://ohioheirloomseeds.com/ . This year should find the following in the garden: cherry tomatoes, slicing tomatoes, plum tomatoes, zucchini, green peppers, red peppers for drying, sunflowers, garlic, and a variety of herbs. Nothing exotic, but still exciting.
