I was sitting in the kitchen eating lunch with my good friend Sharon today when the doorbell rang and Sharon said, “Looks like you just got a big box.” I excused myself, skipped to the door and brought in a big box from one of the seed companies. Hooray! The first seeds have arrived!
Actually, this is the second batch of seeds because my sister sent some sweet marjoram, catnip, asparagus, and ground cherries seeds for V-Day. Thanks, Chris!
Those of you in the know will notice the stirrup hoes in the box, too. All sorts of goodies. Now I just need some locavores to sign up for summer shares and send their deposits so I can pay for this stuff! That’s the beauty of Community-Supported Agriculture: the farmer gets paid when she really needs the funds — at the beginning of the season when she’s got to pay out in order to get the growing going. Thanks in advance to all you future Stone’s Throw Farm members out there — these seeds are for you!
