Spring Rituals

I went to the site (Gene Stratton Porter's Home in the Wildflower Woods) today and spent most of the day with my fellow gardener ordering seeds and plants. Now they have to find funding for the requests. We ordered a lot of seeds. Even if the germination rate is low and it takes a year or more for them to catch up with bare root plants, the cost is much lower. I know we ordered too much for the two of us plant, given that we still have spring clean-up and weeding to do. I really do need to spend some time developing a volunteer program for the garden.
