I *know* that the first day of spring was officially yesterday. But there is something so pleasing and resonant about the 21st. neatly marking all the significant seasonal changes throughout the year. I'm going with the 21st.
But it's not just the calendar that says spring is on--it's in the light, it's in the air, and it's in the packages filling my mailbox day after day--the seeds, in their sweet smelling, colorful, beautiful sleeves, are here!
The soil is here, too. And the off-farm winter work is (grrr, almost) put to bed. It's a clear path to take-off for seedling season, 2022.
Now it's time for you to enjoy a good browse of the Seedling Sale page on the Farm Girl Farm website. I've added some new varieties here and there and brought back some favorite mixed 4-packs, offering you more ways to get a full spectrum of variety in your garden, no matter how small.
Longing for a late summer platter of rainbow sliced tomatoes or pale blonde cucumbers with fresh purple basil? Thinking of canning some orange salsa this fall? Curious about Chinese 5 Color Hot Peppers?
It's all possible! Eat your dreams this summer. :) Order now and pick up later.
Want to get a friend into the joy of locally grown growing? Consider a Farm Girl Seedlings gift card, which can be redeemed during the growing season for any of our vegetable, flower, or herb starts.
