I'm usually on Team NOT Yet every year. The catalogs start arriving here in mid-December.
I always wait until after the holiday craft making is over and I have enjoyed some downtime from being busy before I start looking at them.

This year I have another reason for waiting to order; my oldest brother wants me to help him select plants for his honey bees so they will have more food at his house. I'll be sitting down with him and his wife soon to find out what they like and then combine our orders for anything I don't have enough of to share with them.

That said, I do have a small list of plants and trees I wish to order for this year. That list will grow once I get to looking.

I don't get any catalogs and that's fine. I like to hit the nurseries in our area. I also participate in a few co-ops each season.

Soon. But first I need to make an inventory of what I have on hand.
Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

I start wintersowing in February so I need to get an order in this week for a few seeds I am missing. Hope to concentrate on veggies this year so will order again later when I have the garden mapped out .
