So I sent some seeds yesterday and the day before. The bulk of them though were put into envelopes today. However because of the storm I cannot mail them out today. In any case they'd likely end up sitting in the post office because they're probably going home at noon anyway today. The storm should be over tomorrow so I'l take them to the post office Saturday if they're open.

Thanks for waiting!

I am excited you sent them out! I go to the mailbox everyday and check, just like a kid! We will all have fun discussing how the varieties do in all our different gardens. 8)

Hope you're all doing ok in all that snow! At least there's one more chance for a snow man!

Which are the most popular requests? I'm leaning toward the Lush Queen & AMOS COLI myself. I'd love to try them. Anyway - just had to say thank you for sharing with the group.

I got you covered, too FruitAddict! 8)

Mailing out latest batch of seeds this afternoon. My kid has another snow day today so she's going to be helping me again. She's the one writing the tomato names on the coin holder envelopes I'm stuffing. All seed packets have at minimum 8 seeds in them, so make sure you shake out at least eight seeds when you get the packages. ;)

Yes, I love it out here! People are really nice, lots of farms, lots of nature, good weather, close to woodsy areas but not far from NYC and other notable places. I like the outdoors so this suits me fine. All around good place to be. :)

Keep us updated to how the tomatoes work out and definitely feel free to share. I'm going to be starting seeds this weekend. See you around the boards.

Thanks, Webmaster.
I am sending a pm.
Doesn't postage and envelopes get a bit expensive on you?
Can we reimburse you or send SASE?

tovfla, those tomatoes look beautiful! Please keep us updated as to how this years batch of tomatoes germinate and grow.

I'm looking forward to reading how everybody does with these tomatoes and maybe gain a little insight into how well the different seeds germinate, under what conditions, and how they grow across the different regions.

I will keep all of you updated with how my tomatoes do as well. :)

Post office seems to have slowed down delivery but I'm glad to get the feedback on who received their seeds. Maybe it was the recent storms, mail delivery in my area was cancelled for at least two or three days due to poor road conditions and snow.

I was at Menard's last night in the gardening isle. There were 2 guys looking at the tomato seeds, I had to stop and tell them about the awesome seeds I got from you.

I sent them to the wild boar farms website!!
