Hi I’m new
hi, I am new here. I started an account last year but never really used it. I sfg using Mel’s mix. This past spring was my first time using/ putting together Mel’s mix and I’m glad I did. I have never had my garden do so well in prior years. I am in north east PA but don’t see anyone around me with a garden which sucks. I am also interested in seed trading but ...no one around me is interested...

Re: Hi I’m new
Hi Cmlopez416, Welcome. Here in Ct a few local libraries have seed banks that you can get seed from, check around. You may want to google local garden clubs, they maybe a source of seeds. I am a big fan of saved seed because you already know if it is sourced locally it does well in your climate but always better in some years than others. Gardening is a lifelong educational experience for me, I am either learning something new or sharing something I probably learned from someone else. Nice to hear you had a good year.

Re: Hi I’m new
CMLopez416, here's an official welcome from Atlanta, GA! Glad you've decided to jump in the pool with us, lol...
There is seed trading that goes on among us as well. So that might be an option. What are you looking for? What have you got to trade?
