Fedco Order Placed!!!

Like Daphne, one of my favorite places to order from is Fedco.  They are a New England Co-Op, but their selections have always done well for me in the Mid-Atlantic.  They carry a varied selection of unusual varieties bred by breeders from smaller companies such as Frank Morton of Wild Garden Seed.  The selections marked with an * are bred by Frank Morton.  His lettuces are amazing.  I'm hoping that the endive and kale are equally good.     

The second thing I love about Fedco is their prices.  They are very reasonable to down right cheap,  and they do not charge shipping over $30.00.  What's not to love?

Now I Can Start My Christmas List!

My Fedco catalog arrived today along with Baker Creed Seed.
Of course I had to stop what I was doing and have a quick look. 
Fedco now carries Granny's favorite 'Velour' beans as well as a lot of other interesting new things.

I already now I'm going to up very late tonight.
