Heirloom Organics

I found a new site this morning while stumbling that I think could be very useful to my fellow gardeners. It is called "heirloom organics" and along with having many varieties of old seeds, they also have a large supply of "how to" pages on growing vegetables. This looks like a great site and I'm very excited to check it out more myself. You can find the link below.

Enjoy!

Save those Egg Cartons!

When it comes time to start planting seeds and your looking for nifty ways to reuse materials or keep a tighter budget, try saving up those egg cartons. Many egg cartons are now made of a soft, cardboard like material that is perfect for holding dirt and germinating seeds.

It's a great way for little anyone to get a start at gardening without having to buy lots of trays for germinating. I found this picture on a fellow bloggers page and it is a perfect example of a simple, easy to use germination tray that can hold a large number of seeds.
