We’ve only just begun.

Picking out seeds this year was a more focused effort.  I knew I wanted heirloom seeds, lots of herbs and tomatos, and I wanted to try to grow a watermelon.  We purchased all of our seeds so far at Rohrer’s Seeds in Smoketown, except for the Happy Cat Farm seeds which I snagged at the Fair Food Farmstand.

Then we purchased topsoil with a few happy helpings of plant food. We started our seeds in small containers, and placed them in the sunshine on our seed-starting bookshelf.

Planted so far:
Crimson Sweet Watermelon
Black Beauty Zucchini
Golden Calwonder Pepper
Sweet Banana Pepper
Yellow Pear Cherry Tomato
Black Zebra Tomato
Northern Lights Tomato
Heirloom Parsely (passed on to me from a co-worker)
Italian Large Leaf Basil
