Sally, they are not just great folks, they’re so committed to the good things they do — it’s terrific.

Monica, you are definitely lucky. Is your season this year really late?

That’s so cool of Seed Savers Exchange! We are lucky in Michigan that even though it’s been raining a LOT, it hasn’t flooded.

Deb, me too!

Ben, I hope so, as well.

Plot_Thickens, that sounds like quite a day! I’ll email you about this.

Kate, I hope they do…as well as the peppers!

Wish I lived nearby – great that you are advertising this … no doubt the tomatoes will find a good garden.

Oh, and we’ll likely hit Scharffenberger. Have you taken the Scharffenberger Chocolate Factory tour yet? It’s FASCINATING!

I just made a donation.

Okay, can I change the subject? My partner (we’re hetero) and I will be taking a “Eastbay culinary supply” trip this weekend. The trip will start from somewhere-near-the-Fruitvale-Bart-station, maybe stopping at the Wholesale Restaurant Warehouse in Jack London Square, hitting our favorite coffee-and-tea factory (Peerless), to Sur La Table at the bottom of University, and then probably some place that has herbs because I’ve an empty pot and how can it stay that way huh huh huh?! There is this fantastic little nursery up in the Piedmont hills….

You can see that there’s a bit of wiggle room in our schedule. There’s also a bit of wiggle room in our car. You are welcome, O favorite blogger, to occupy the Seat Of Honor in our (quite spacious) car and allow us to buy you a cuppa and ferry you about. Feel free to accept or decline as you wish, offer changes in the itinerary, and/or requests for us to shut up already about local points of interest.

And, again, welcome. :)

Great post, Genie! How fabulous of Seed Savers to make them available. I hope gardeners within a drive of Decorah take advantage of this wonderful opportunity!
