Here's a different idea.
First, here's the info from their site on shipping:
About delivery.
- Seeds are generally shipped by lettermail; plants, plug packs and plug trays by UPS, Canpar or Xpresspost in Canada, and UPS or air freight in the U.S.; and all other items such as books, dried herbs, gardening supplies, posters, and videos by surface mail or UPS.
- Rush orders can be shipped by courier at cost if paid by credit card; mark "RUSH".
- Seasonal items, such as bulbs, tubers, rootlets, mushroom kits, should be ordered early. For example, "fall" items should be ordered by July, "spring" items by March.
- We cannot ship perishable items, such as plants, bulbs, etc. until our weather permits. This may not coincide with the season elsewhere: in parts of British Columbia or the United States, for example. Because of sheer volume in spring, some plant orders may not be shipped until early June. If you wish to specify an earlier shipping date on your order, we will try to accommodate you, but we cannot guarantee that date.
- Most plant and plug tray shipments to U.S. destinations will be shipped from Buffalo, NY. We take care of all customs fees and paperwork free-of-charge. All U.S. plant shipments are government inspected and come with a phytosanitary certificate provided free-of-charge.
Thinking about our past couple of winters, fall ordering probably isn't the best time. Instead, how about we collect our thoughts over the next several months. When we have the winter seed swap in January, finalize the order and send it in no later than mid-February 2017, with a delivery date around the 1st of May 2017. This will give everyone a chance to consider what they want for where. And when we have the spring swap, we distribute the plants.
Additional thoughts?
