    Sending Frozen Seed?

    Hey all a quick question, we had someone looking for some seed from us but all I have is what has been stuck back in the freezer for awhile. Any ideas or best tips on how to send this so that it makes it there safely considering the seed has been frozen but won't be in shipping? Thanks!

    Cotton Seed

    Hey you all, does anyone still seed swap here? I have not logged in for SO long but I was curious! I'm looking for some heirloom cotton if possible to grow a very small patch for birds to use as nesting material. I finally ran out.

    Canning is off, can you figure out what happened?

    Not sure about re-boiling but I would think it has to do with the ingredients/preparation of the sauce more than the bath itself. I'm sorry to hear about this happening! I had a batch of fig preserves just go wonky on me one time and not set up the way it should have. Make sure you pay attention...

    Picture Of The Week (POW) Information & Submissions

    We were coming home from work and passed a place I've always wanted to stop at - a beautiful little farm stand. They had a whole big field of Tulips planted and blooming, where you could cut/dig them to take home. We got a bunch for my mother-in-law and this is one of the ones we brought her, in...

    Wanted- Natural Cotton

    @Artichoke Lover - I'll have to check. I was hoping to potentially barter and maybe help someone else out here, but I will have a look next time we go to one of the stores in a few weeks.

    Wanted- Natural Cotton

    Hi everyone - hummingbird season will be here soon, and I am looking for some natural/heirloom cotton perhaps so I can put it out as nesting material for our little friends. Does anyone have some they're willing to barter for?
