I have to start planting peppers the second week of February so they&#8217;ll be ready to go out into the hoop house in early May. I&#8217;ve made out orders for a few new peppers and tomatoes that we&#8217;re going to try this year. We do that every year and always discover new &#8220;favorites,&#8221; often among old heritage varieties. I&#8217;ve got a pile of seed catalogs around my chair that would bury an elephant! How much fun. But there&#8217;s so much difference in price, seed count, and shipping that it&#8217;s gotten to be a chore, too. I used to buy a lot from Johnny&#8217;s, but their shipping got so high that I could no longer afford it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.backwoodshome.com\/blogs\/JackieClay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Market-basket.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1998\" title=\"Market-basket\" src=\"https:\/\/www.backwoodshome.com\/blogs\/JackieClay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Market-basket.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"446\" height=\"402\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I forgot that I&#8217;d promised to show a photo of my favorite Vietnamese market basket. Sorry guys. So here it is. I totally love it! And it&#8217;s more than 30 years old too. I can carry it on my head (soft enough to conform), to keep the weight from hurting my back, I can rinse vegetables like carrots, right in the basket and they drain dry in minutes. It fits in my large sink so I can rinse green beans and lettuce right in the kitchen. If you can find one, buy it! &#8212; Jackie<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I usually begin making out seed orders before this, but because I&#8217;ve been so busy, it just hasn&#8217;t happened.
