My Seeds Have Been Saved

Here’s to Longer Days

We just passed the winter solstice. The one day of the year with the longest night, and shortest day. I think this is a cause for celebration.

Sorting Seeds

This is my seed box. It would probably make Julie over at DeclutterIt shake her head. I think I have seeds in there from the last 10 years.
