I just LOVE when the UPS guy knocks on my door (even if he is just delivering Sam's tea).
Sometimes I want to buy stuff just so I can get a package in the mail!

Oh, I'm so hoping I'm not too late to order more seeds! I still have a bunch from last year, but there's so much I want to add!
Any particular reason you chose FedCo? I'm a dork and didn't even send away for any seed catalogues.
We just wanted to make sure we stayed away from companies associated with Monsanto, and Fedco was recommended. I also think their seeds were very reasonable (tho their website isn't as pretty or as easy to navigate).
I checked the prices against several other catalogs and theirs had the lowest (and I wasn't even choosing them on that criteria - I had already put in my order).
We also ordered from Seed-Savers, again because we like their commitment to avoid Monsanto seed.
ps. and I don't think it's too late to order, I'm usually planting till the end of May!
I recognize kidney beans and a few varieties of squash. You're going to have to show me picture of the others when they bloom or sprout or grow...whatever the right word is! :)
