I got everything that I wanted besides the trees and things but I canceled those because they said I would have to re-order next year. I got like twenty different things from them. They say to not eat them though there for breeding only.....:(

I got my Fond Blanc melon seed the other day, two packs of 25 each. THIS time, I also got a letter telling how I would be a valuable part of the program, collecting data and reporting back next season.

So what changed? My name. I said that we here at TizNotta Farm were now part of The M.U.S.E. Foundation*, intent on urban sustainability.

Maybe it made a difference, I don't know. I haven't ordered anything else, as it's been pretty hectic here at TizNotta Farm! :)

Well, today I got the dreaded letter of death from some guy in GA stating that I was basically a thief like all the others who would request more seeds using different names/addresses. He "encourages" home gardeners to acquire seeds from other sources and leave THEIR seeds for the scientists and "educators". I did write him an email. Whether he cares or if it does any good or not, it certainly made ME feel better! LOL!!

Ah, the bitter taste of academic/government elitism is always good for the letter writing muscles.
