Thanks for the welcome ALL !! Dont know how much chit chattin I'll get in the rest of the week... I went into my greenhouse this evening and noticed all my extra seeds floating in 4 inches of water. I had quite a few as we normally garden about 2-3 acres (not commercially.) This is what I feed my family on throughout the year as well as many others. We donate to a few food banks in local counties, the VFW gets lots of goodies, and family n friends normally get more than what they want..lol... but we consider it our way of helping others ;) Its been raining alot here and the wind a blowin like no tomorrow. Today was decent. I'm a firm believer in the good Lord, so I'm guessing this is his gentle nudge to get me to plant the rest of the seed 8-) WELL... JOB WELL DONE !! Cuz I hate wasting them and I'm thinkin this must have happened a day or so ago ... many seeds were just starting to sprout. JEEZZZ... just when I thought I was ahead in the game..lol... Thats allright though !! I just keep the hubby diggin more ground ;) I'll quit my ramblin' on.. I'm looking to the bright side>>> this fall I should have plenty of veggies to give away again and plenty of seeds to offer to my new friends 8-)

Heres a picture from last years harvest ... I needed cold storage so used my extra room in the house that stays plenty chilly.. till I could get everything divided out for everyone. Sad thing is ... this isnt even all of it I had 3 other totes that I couldnt get in there full of potatos ... One things for sure .. no one in my family can be accused of starvation...lol
