In the garden…

It’s that time of year, when thoughts turn to new life, and it comes time to start the garden.  At the moment I am relegated to a few small containers on the terrace, but it is enough to get me through until next year when I have a garden of my own again.  I am no expert on gardening, but it is so enjoyable even just to experiment.  My favorite local seed company will be the focus of today’s entry.  Territorial Seed Company of Cottage Grove, Oregon specializes in veggie and flower seeds, in addition to live plants, tools, and books.  They produce very high quality seeds that are not genetically modified.  Their aim is to “…improve people’s self-sufficiency and independence by enabling gardeners to produce an abundance of good tasting fresh-from-the-garden food, twelve months a year.”  Not all of us live in such a mild climate as the maritime Northwest, but we can all certainly enjoy garden fresh produce, and living a bit closer to the earth.  Check out their site: www.TerritorialSeed.com
