Als ich wisse das Morgen der Erde enden wuerde, immernoch wurd ich mein Apfelbaum pflanzen.

Even if I knew the world would perish tomorrow, I would still plant my apple tree. - Martin Luther

"Factory work's easier on the back, and I don't mind it, understand, but a man becomes what he does. Got to watch that. That's why I keep at farmin' although the crops haven't ever throve. It's the doin' that's important." Madison Wheeler in Blue Highways by William Least Heat Moon

2013 Seed Order

:)Super S\
H
Have you ordered your seeds yet?  I took about an hour today and went through the seeds I already have, looked through my garden notes and placed this year's order.  I had quite a lot of winter squash and bean seeds, but I was completly out of lettuce and greens.
I've been ordering from Pine Tree for years and I'm always happy with the products I recieve. I used to order from multiple catalogs, but it simplifies the process (and saves me on shipping) to order from one place. 
I'm not planting anything new this year, and for the most part I'm sticking with varieties I've grown before.  I've also found that onion sets are best bought locally- I've given up on starting them from seed.  So, in case you're curious... here's this year's order.

 It's so easy to over dream in the winter, and then to regret how much you've planted come summer - but I think I have a reasonable order here.  It will be time to plant before you know it. 
How about you?  Have you ordered your seeds?  Are you growing anything new this year?
