Seed Savers Exchange

http://www.seedsavers.org If you are already thinking about next years garden like I am check out this site for the seed savers exchange. You can become a member for only $35 a year and have access to some unique varieties of plants and vegetable seeds handed down through the generations from our ancestors.

Seed Savers Exchange is a non-profit organization that saves and shares the heirloom seeds, forming a living legacy that can be passed down through generations. When people grow and save seeds, they join an ancient tradition as stewards, nurturing our diverse, fragile, genetic and cultural heritage.

Heirloom vegetable is a cultivator that was commonly grown during earlier periods in human history, but which is not used in modern large-scale agriculture. Many heirloom vegetables have kept their traits through open pollination, while fruit varieties such as apples have been propagated over the centuries through grafts and cuttings.

Craft Fairs

Well, our last craft fair is coming up this week end. Saturday Dec. 13, we will be at my work. There is a craft fair in what use to be the Eastern Mountain Sports retail space to benefit the Conway Area Humane Society.

Here is a picture taken at the Craft Fair at the North Conway Community Center. We have also attended the craft fairs at New Suncook School, and Bartlett Elementary School.

Attending Craft Fairs has been interesting, we have gotten a chance to meet a lot of fellow crafters and have handed out lots of business cards to some of the many at home crafters in the North Conway/Fryeburg area.
