Astragalus Seed Packets Hot Off the Press...
New Seed Packets for 2014 emerging from the HP Color Laserjet yesterday! The paper feed tray holds a stack of 20 coin envelopes at a time. I print my artwork on the fronts, flip the envelopes over, then print the seed sowing and seed saving information on the reverse side.
We have much work to do over the next few weeks. 1. Finish cleaning and sorting our seed lots from last season’s harvest. 2. Continue germination testing on all the seeds we plan to sell this year. 3. Print packages, pack with seeds, and seal.
It’s easiest to tackle these tasks methodically in batches, and I now have packets for 8 different varieties printed from yesterday’s session. I’ll pack seeds and have these ready to sell in the next few days! 4 or 5 more batches like this will be necessary to get all of our seed offerings out (hopefully) by Valentine’s Day!
Buy our seeds online in our NEW localharvest.org store. In Lane Co., Oregon buy our seeds from our seed racks at Down to Earth Stores, Sundance Natural Foods, or Kalapuya Books.
In Seeds We Trust!
Love, Aline
