Here comes the sun!

Spring is slowly arriving and my plants at my window can tell. I've seen a recent growth spurt in all of them and I'm excited to show them off. I'm growing a lot of stuff, I can't tell you how many times I've agonized over growing one variety over another, or which herb fits well for my balcony. I finally made my choices (for the most part), and but I'm still constantly on the lookout for awesome seeds. I'm still going to Seedy Sunday yet I have a ginormous seed list (which I will probably post later).

I'm also very very pleased that I got my cilantro seeds from Cubit's – it's not showing on this blog, but I am absolutely in love with that herb. I use cilantro in almost everything and to think, I used to hate it (with a passion). I am particularly happy that I got some organic seeds, at least I can save some seeds and use it for the next season. Also another note, GO TO SEEDY SUNDAY! Get some seeds, it'll be fun.. I promise.

Some other great news, Daniel over at My Small Kitchen Garden finally got the seeds I sent him! He was kind enough to do a seed giveaway and I got some paste tomato seeds from him, as well as Blue Hubbard Squash, and these lovely Neck Pumpkin seeds. I plan to start sowing some seeds again, and will probably blog about the squash. I'm a little nervous, but hopefully it should be fine.

I should post some photos. I took a lot of photos over the week showing the growth of my baby plants. I hope you enjoy the photo spam!

Free Seeds!

The Eco-Family and Cubit's Organic Living are giving away some seeds!

CLICK HERE TO LOOK AT THE DETAILS!!

The packaging is so adorable, if you don't buy from her, you clearly hate animals and carrots.

Good luck everyone! I've bought a lot of seeds from Cubit's and I can assure you, they're the best! So enter, unfortunately it's only for Americans and Canadians -- free shipping to boot if you get some seeds!

Regardless of whether or not you get some seeds from the giveaway, I suggest you get some seeds from Cubit's anyways. Laura Watt is a lovely lady and her seeds are quality - she is truly a seed magician/wizard! She's so nice and prompt with her responses, and she really cares about GMO free seeds. It's important to be aware of the chemicals that we pump into our systems daily, and GMO free seeds is a place to start.

Plus, they have a great selection over there and I strongly recommend that you purchase something from there! Come on man, PURPLE PEPPERS and free shipping (US AND CANADA)!
