I did get some dried Ghost Chili pods for those who like some heat! Well see how they germinate so we can share them with all you chili fans!If anyone has a source for more seeds please share with me. You would think they were coated in gold at the prices that I have found.
I will also be offering some veggie and herb assorted 6packs and 1 gallon pots.Im listening that some gardeners would like a good start on their plants,so Im going to be selling larger plants at the farm this year.
I am going to have various tomato & pepper heirlooms. I will be growing Aunt Mollys ground cherries again too!Beans, squash,melons and more will be added to the list.
I will have all my varieties listed on my website later in spring.I will be taking orders for delivery to Unique Boutiques for those customers who cant make it to farm.I am willing to do some shipping too.
Oh and I will be listing my soaps, bathsalts & crafts too! We will now be offering everything at wholesale prices for those interested in carrying our products at their stores!!

Gardening brings family together

Saturday my family , my Dad, my brother & all his sons worked in my Dad's yard. Lots of pruning, weeding & raking. It was so fun, hard work but the kids all were together learning "how" to work.Learning to drive the tractor was the big hi light of the day I'm sure! We made big progress. I cleaned my giant garden area in front of Dad's barn.Ohh what should I plant there???
Today Im going to shovel potting soil. Lots of it. But it's more progress, I love moving forward! Better get out there!
