My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

HAVE: Hey Newbies, wanna take a chance?

19 years ago

I have lots of seeds left over from 2005 harvest. I'm sure they are fine, kept cool and dry. For the first 20 new gardeners that email me, I will stuff the bubble wrap envelope that you send me. Include .63 postage inside and a mailing lable and your e-mail address so I can let you know they are on the way. There is one little catch though. My 12 yr. old Grandson complains that he never gets mail. You have to include a little note to him with something about your state, any little tidbit, weather, unusual sites, something different that your state grows, etc. He doesn't know I'm posting this, it will be such fun to see him finally "get mail". Feel free to include a short wish list, I do have some cool seeds, like Kiss Me Over the Garden Gate and Broken 4 O'clocks, I'll do my best to fill.

    Hi April! I received your seeds today! I didn't expect so many!! Thank you so much and I'm glad Will enjoyed my info on SD. Tell him I really appreciated his Thank You card, and I enjoyed taking part in this offer with both of you! Thanks again, Karen

    Hello All,

    I have answered all the posts I had received, either through GardenWeb or email addresses. Did everyone get my emails? If not, please send me another email and I'll try it again. One member said my mail went to her spam file, no idea why.
    Please let me know if you did not hear back from me....I have LOTS of seeds left.

    I'd like to participate also, if it isn't too late... My kids love mail too, and it is very sweet of you to think of him (and a neat way for him to get mail from all over the country).

    Would love to be involved if you are still going?
    I have 4 peoples gardens to populate! (2 elderly moms and mine as well as my best friends!) Would love to let your Grandson know as much as I can about Green Bay WI, but you will have to let me know if he likes the GB Packers or not so I will know if I should include that stuff. Will e-mail you too for address.
