Garden Planning

I hope everyone has the planting bug and is thinking about their layouts and seeds. Here are some resources for you or some things to keep in mind.

The following is a short list of some resources for seed starts, you are not required to grow heirloom or heritage or organic seeds, however, these resources may provide some of this for those interested.

Hilsgen Family Farm is a local grower who sells heirloom and open pollinated varieties of tomatoes, peppers, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, and herbs $2.00/6-pack. To purchase contact Cindy at 715-448-2050.

Seed Savers in Decorah, Iowa may be an internet resource for heritage seeds http://www.seedsavers.org

If you have funds or materials to contribute please contact the garden coordinator (see contact info below).

For information on how to donate your extra garden produce to the "Plant a Row for the Hungry" program and the Red Wing Food Shelf, please see our PAR flier.
