Seedling Sale Update–available varieties

Here is the promised list of varieties for our sale– there might be one or two I’ve missed. We have absolutely tons of the cucurbits this year–winter squashes, pumpkins, cukes, zukes, melons, and watermelons! Last year we didn’t manage to grow enough because the chipmunks were such a (very cute) menace, but this year we’ve figured out how to outwit them (for now anyway!) Also lots of okra! Herbs and flowers are in slightly shorter supply this year, but we will put out more each day, so they don’t all get snapped up at once.
