I was sent an interesting post by a friend today, regarding seeds. Before I tell you where to find it, let me say that we have been starting to grow a little of our own food.

For one thing, you find out that there are garden insects that you WANT in your garden, ones that will greatly help to control the pest insects. Astoundingly, these helpers will come by themselves to your garden, if you will let them. It’s like there is this incredible balance that wants to establish itself, if we can muster the wisdom to just get out of the way enough.
