We have ordered and received our seeds, organized the seeds we saved from last year, and even traded some seeds with friends and family. And yet it is still safe to say that we still have more seeds than we need for the spring. I look forward to trading more at a seed exchange in the spring.
Here are the varieties we bought new this year:
From
Bountiful Gardens- Large Brown Lentils
- Linares Quinoa
- Black Turtle Dry Bush Beans
- Hopi Black Dye Sunflowers
- Pinto Dry Bush Beans
- Red Cowpeas
- Oilseed Sunflowers
From
Baker Creek Seeds- Purple Plum Radishes
- Saxa II Radishes
- Black Hungarian Peppers
- Chinese 5 Color Peppers
- Scarlet Runner Beans
- Chinese Red Noodle Beans (pictured, above right)
- Gaint Musselburgh Leeks
- Orange Banana Tomatoes
- Plum Lemon Tomatoes
- Tess's Land Race Currant Tomatoes
- Beauty King Tomatoes
Including the items above, we will be planting 59 different kinds of plants (110 different varieties) between the home garden, the community garden, and a variety of pots and tubs in the yard. I am so looking forward to spring!

I also ordered the Linares Quinoa from Bountiful Gardens - I considered the Colorado Quinoa but the man who took the seeds from Chile was cursed (and then murdered) and even though the seed catalog assures us the curse was lifted by a Chilean shaman I felt a little uneasy ordering it! You didn't mention your Chicago Fig arriving April 10th!
