We all know that I’ve been a bit hyper-focused on the garden situation here… I may have gone a wee bit overboard but that has not been confirmed yet.
I just recently made a couple of more orders for seeds and plants… there are so many things that I want to try and I’ve really been trying to limit myself to a few new things every month but sometimes there are deals that are just too good to pass up or things that are only in season at certain times. There are also a few items that we are waiting to be restocked so we have to grab them when they become available or we won’t get them at all… so much to keep track of. I like using the ‘Diary’ section of the Gardenate app to help me keep track of some of these things.
I’ve got kiddos waiting to start schoolwork so I’ll just try to list the most recent orders and links to the sites:

You might notice that a good majority of these are perennials… I’m trying to make our gardens a little less maintenance and hopefully keep a supply of food going all year round even when we have bad weather or if we just don’t have time to mess with it much. A lot of these items will also provide a good food source for the many critters that we have running around here.
One thing I ordered that isn’t necessarily garden-related is some of the Viral Encompass Farming Oil which is supposed to help repel ticks and mosquitoes… yes, please! I’ll definitely be updating you all if this truly works!
Hope you all might have found something that you want to check out… God Bless!
P.S. Please say a prayer that my husband doesn’t decide to contact these places and have me banned from ordering!
