Also, I have just discoverd Renee's Garden Seeds (www.reneesgarden.com) has ALL of their 2008 seed stock 50% off until 11/20. It's a smaller woman owned company with a lot of specialty varieties of veggies and flowers. They have a great website with a lot of great information. I may have been a *bit* ambitious with my order. But half off for a seed junkie, that's asking for trouble.

Why don't more companies do this?

They recently internet-ized too, though their catalog is not one to miss. No photos, the descriptions are much more helpful than in any other catalog I've found. I often find pictures in other catalogs of interesting things (Baker Creek, SeedSavers, etc) then look it up in Fedco to hear what it's really like. It's encyclopedic.<BR/><BR/>Also the Seed Savers Exchange catalog has awesome flowers (all open pollinated).katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04998755307547391097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21318605.post-79572205392788252052008-11-11T09:59:00.000-06:002008-11-11T09:59:00.000-06:00We order from Harris Seeds a lot, but I have to sa...We order from Harris Seeds a lot, but I have to say that the Totally Tomatoes catalog has entertained me for many long winter hours by the woodstove.<BR/><BR/>I would like to hear your sheep story. Because I can already see the wheels turning in my husband's little shepherd mind when he sees the winter oats growing in the garden. I just have a bad feeling about putting the sheep in there at all. Maybe you can give me some ammunition to dissuade him.Kristin @ Going Countryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00221544641416039741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21318605.post-1702913062852255092008-11-10T17:05:00.000-06:002008-11-10T17:05:00.000-06:00I love edible landscaping, and my favoite nursery ...I love edible landscaping, and my favoite nursery for that is Raintree Nursery in Morton, WA.
