     Bekah spent yesterday working in the seed display.  She bought seeds from Johnny's in bulk this year and bought a new scale so she can sell them by weight.  She wasn't happy with the prices she had to charge for seeds.  Many people garden to save money and find it hard to pay out so much money for seeds.  The seed company we were buying seeds from  is a reputable company but she doesn't think their seeds are as good as Johnny's.  Part of what Jay likes about filling the vegetable stand with vegetables he has grown is knowing he  is offering food that is more nutritious, pesticide free,  and tastes better than customers can get elsewhere-unless they grow their own.  Successfully growing their own starts with the soil.  Coast of Maine products help with soil.  Along with suggestions from Jay and Bekah.  Next is starting with quality seeds and plants.  Country Junction seedlings are strong healthy plants that thrive when planted in the customer's gardens.  This year customers will be able to buy just the amount of seeds they need.  Top quality seeds that will germinate well and be healthy plants.

     A second greenhouse so they can offer more plants and now offering seeds to help grow successful gardens, Jay and Bekah are excited about the 2025 season.

     May your day be blessed.  Sally
