If there's one thing I've learned since we began growing our own food...
It's that Life Wants To Grow. Food wants to be in abundance. Abundance is food's natural state. The amount of seeds that only one fruit or vegetable gives, never mind a whole plant, bush or tree, is testimony to that. I've only been saving seeds for two years now, and I've already got almost too much again. Last year I mailed out 30 envelopes stuffed with all different kinds of seed and I still have a tonne left over.
Needless to say I'll be sending out seeds again this spring, to ensure my friends and family in Canada can grow food for less money. I'll be sure to let everyone in Canada on Steemit know and I'll send you some seeds too! Another reason I have such a surplus of seed is because I have some great friends who mail me their own seeds. It's a beautiful way to stay in touch and enrich each other's gardens.
Kale seeds. All from flowers (which turned into seed pods) off of just 8 plants. Wait until you see this...can you even imagine how many kale plants can be grown now? Life Wants To Grow.
Time for Beans.
I made ratatouille and harvested squash seeds at the same time ;) Hey I always said I'm a damn fine multitasker.
