Garden Catalog Alert!

Yesterday I recieved in the mail my brand new:
Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds Catalog for 2011
Oh dear lord, this is absolutely the most luscious, beautiful seed catalog EVER!
Order your own at www.rareseeds.com
 Yes, seed catalogs are going out and helping us gardening folk to dream about lush armfuls of vegetable bounty.
I plan my garden every year going through the catalogs I receive in December and January.
Baker Creek has become my *go to* seed catalog.
NO GMO seeds!

Seeds from around the world...some from plants that are, indeed, rare.
Heirloom seeds from the Amish and Mennonite farmers and from insular communities and old family farms in the South, in the Ozarks, etc.
Baker Seeds has also recently purchased a 200 year old seed company in the NorthEast US.
Comstock, Ferre & Company in Wethersfield, Conn.
You can order their seed catalog by writing them at:
Comstock, Ferre & Co., LLC
263 Main Street
Wethersfield, CT 06109
They will be keeping the old seed stocks going...no gmo's, no hybrids...just the heirloom seed that comes back true, year after year.A lot of the seed is specific to the New England-North East US region, so that's good news for any of you in that area!

I strongly encourage everyone to buy from Baker Seeds.
No, I don't work for the company or get a kick-back from them....
I support them because they are trying to sustain and maintain heirloom seeds and they are supporters of home gardeners, seed savers, organic agriculture and community based agriculture.
They are very definitely ANTI GMO and ANTI Monsanto.

So order your seed catalog and join me in dreaming of gardens not yet sprouted!
Plan your gardens and get a jump start on next season!

Pass this on for me if you would, please!

Healthy, active and enthusiastic woman looking for caretaking/farm/ranch/property management position.
I am especially interested in opportunities on organic farms/ranches and those that raise heritage breeds.
Have worked on dairy farms, agricultural farms, cattle farms, poultry farms. Currently exiting employment as a property manager in Beaumont, Texas. Tired of city living, looking for employment in rural area! I don't require a lot of pay, just a roof over my head and new challenges to tackle!
Not afraid of hard work, animals or buggies and beasties. I adapt well to every situation. Not prone to panic and stay calm in almost every situation. (Last time I didn't stay calm was when teaching a teenager to drive...but he is grown now, so I don't have to do that again, thank goodness!)
I have skills at herbalism, food preservation and storage, gardening, composting, animal health, livestock management in general, crafts, basic carpentry (built a cabin of my very own once!) I can work with minimal supervision, as well.
If you have have housing and work for two, I have a friend (late 30s, male) that is also looking for a similar position anywhere from San Antonio area to Los Cruces New Mexico area!
