Great podcast Dave and Trish Thumbs up Thank you!

I wish we lived closer so we could buy some of your veggie plants. Will you be posting your seed sales somewhere here on ATP?

Thank you Dave - I will watch for it. I still have lots of seeds from last year but looking to see if you will have anything new.

I am smiling from ear to ear. Loved every moment of the new podcast. So glad they are back.

I am ready to start celebrating plants and ATP. Hurray!

Loved hearing about your upcoming plant sale, pigs, cats, cow calving, garden plans. How is Jon's daylily project coming along?

Very well, thanks for asking! He has already outgrown 2 raised beds that they made last year and has now taken over a long stretch of bed in my butterfly garden area. I don't mind- more plants to look at and he has to weed the beds Whistling
He has his own hybridized seedlings growing there now, and of course has giant plans for spring.

@Trish ... just saw your tagline and checked out your 'store' on Cubits.org ... very ambitious. I also make soap, but only for my personal use and for family and friends. You must never sleep ... so many irons in the fire. Very nice site ... I hope you do well there.

@p1mkw I buy soap from @Trish several times a year, and I HIGHLY recommend it!! It smells yummy, makes fabulous gifts, and only a couple of them have triggered my very irritating (on several levels!) skin sensitivities - and even with those the reaction was very mild (I can still use them, but not on my face.)
