Our sale is the first Saturday in May. This year that turns out to be the first day of May! Well, the number varies on how many we have. You know you get years when the seed doesn't sprout, etc. in 2018 a lot of the seeders had damping off disease , so we were down in numbers that year. Overall, we usually have anywhere from two thirds of the plants frown from seed to one third of the plants dug from our gardens, some years it's more half and half. We average anywhere from 1500 to 2500 total plants for sale every year. I could give you a more exact amount, but would have to drag out my folder and correlate some figures. I think my estimates are pretty close. This year a lot of new members are doing the seeding, and I don't know how much experience they have, with the exception of a mother/ daughter team who actually own their own nursery.
Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.
