I should though! <br />The stay at home thing got me, not so much staying at home, whihc I do anyway, more the news and stuff got me a bit down.

Last year I barely did anything, but I find myself sewing again and feeling quite optimistic. I guess the stay at home thing had more effect than I understood.<br />I look forward to seeing your garden this year - maybe a few videos again, that would be a real treat.<br />HelenChurn Dashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13060909536864106475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3078806588853616263.post-3915512247662678512022-02-11T11:44:55.569+00:002022-02-11T11:44:55.569+00:00Nice to see envelopes being recycled.

A lot of the packets were the overpriced and underfilled organic seed packets. I got $500. worth of seeds so now I let my friends choose from my seed supply. I took a fraction of the available seeds. Previous to that, Habitat for Humanity had been given unsold seeds from Canadian Tire. I had bought $20. worth at 50 cents a pack. Once again, a lot of expensive packets with a dearth of seeds. I had not spent more than a couple dollars on seeds in years as I seed save and use old seed. Seed swapping is a good way to build community. Hope you have great success with your seeds.Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13539578220428741404noreply@blogger.com
