Comments (113)My seeds came yesterday, but I have not had time to look at them. I'll post later with the high points. Thanks MIchelle, for another successful swap. Finally had a chance to open my envelope. Everyone sent great seeds and I will be sowing a lot of them this season. The most creative referenced the poultry and egg garden, including several plumes, Turkey Craw pole beans, a couple of feathers and one Cranesbill, not to mention a couple of foxes in the hen house (Foxgloves). I am always surprised and delighted by some of the associations people make in this swap. Other themes got nice seeds too and poor Miss Lottie could not help but be encouraged by all the different kinds of Marigold. Thanks again!

Comments (9)I alphabetized your tomato's list and fixed some spelling. I can do your whole list if you like but you can add in your numbers..it makes looking for and trading easier :) You have some varieties I never heard of like Apielson. I'd love to hear more on your garden and see pictures. Please read my list and hopefully we can trade. I also am starting a community garden with over 100 varieties...for starter seed I can gladly save and return at harvest....we are..... well, here's the list followed by the First Fruits blurb. Apielson Orange Aunt RubyÂs German Green Aunt RubyÂs German Grape Australian Heart Beefsteak Big Rainbow Black From Tulsa Black Pear Black Zebra Cherokee Chocolate Elberta Peach Garden Peach Golden Jubilee Green Giant Green Zebra Hazle Mae Hess Japanese Black Triffle Kellogg's Breakfast Manyel Mashinka Pink Matt's Wild Cherry Mr. Stripey Nyagous Old Ivory Egg Ox Heart Persimmon Pineapple Pink Brandywine Principe Bourghese Red Zebra Silvery Fir Tree Striped Roman Super Snow White Thai Pink Egg Tigerovy White Queen Yellow Brandywine Yellow Pear Zapotec First Fruits Harvest Garden 4644 M-33 Hwy. Onaway, MI 49765 While there are many needs in other countries and hungry everywhere, the goals of First Fruits are to: *Feed the local community with organically grown, open pollinated, local vegetables. To be distributed through the FOOD Pantry currently established on site. *Provide a place for those who wish to grow their own produce and provide seed, etc. *Open pollinated seeds will be saved and used/given away. No hybrids will be used. This establishes a fresh Seed Bank as well. Current and future goals are: raised-bed gardens, grains, water supply, storage and greenhouse. We are asking for a tax deductible donation to start "seed" money for such a project. Should such a project fail, monies would be donated to the local food pantry and people would still be fed. Projected Budget- $500 establishes the garden plot including seed. $3600 establishes a greenhouse and storage area. Overall projected budget of operation to start is $4100. After the initial investment maintenance follows and the budget reduces. Thank you for helping Project Manager, Earl Bassett...See MoreNEW: November 'Gardening Decorating' new sign-ups, etc.
