And The Winner Is.
Some time ago I said I wanted to give away all of my seeds lock stock and barrel.
It was called Worth's Big Seed Give Away. These seeds are a conglomeration of everything from melons to tomatoes and then some. I dont want to let them go to waste and many need to be passed on to other people. I said there would be a contest to see who I would give them to. For some time now I have considered many of you. But one person stands out above the others as this was a silent contest. The person I picked drum roll is---------------------------------------------. Alittlesalt. The reasons are many. I will list the reasons here. Not one time has he been in any controversial discussions here unlike me. He has proven that he will use the seeds because of his posts here showing what he has done. He is a gracious person and is happy with what ever life hands him. He started here not knowing much about tomatoes but has learned a great deal and has already shared his knowledge with others. He wont get mad if the seeds dont sprout. He has the space. On top of the hodgepodge of seeds he will also receive a brand spanking new new copy of Carolyn's Book. I have considered Salt for some time now and have only been waiting to see him and his family come true with the garden. These seeds will be a challenge like no other and some I doubt will sprout like the many pepper seeds I have. Congratulations Salt you won a contest you didn't even know you were in. Pass them on or do as you wish they are yours and will be in the mail soon. Worth |

I am so happy for you Salt. Anything from Worth is well WORTH it! I am truly glad he didn't pick me by the way. First I don't need any more seeds but I am out of room to plant them anyway. Today I was planting my pumpkin seeds along the chicken fence hoping they would grow on the fence and the chickens wold leave them alone in the fall just because I have no room left to plant anything more and I am so bumming. I had more room than last year and I still didn't fit it all in.
