We finally joined the blogger world. It will be a site for exchanging ideas, information on gardening, and seeds. Links to our seed lists and albums will be permanently be posted at the top of the blog. Patrick, and everyone else, if you would like to link to it, please do.

The 2008 seed list link should be up soon. Most of the photos for the 2008 varieties are already in the albums.
Cheers
Dan

Always pay it forward.

The property lies in a small microclimate that gives me a zone 5/6 Canadian version or 6/7 US version. One acre of land at an elevation of 1770', just off the edge of a flood plain. Sandy loam soil, hot days and cool nights (55F).

Forgot to put a post in after the rest of the info. If you click on the title of the post (Comments) it will open a page with the ability to post a comment. Not a perfect setup, and we're still learning how to do things, so have patience.
