I Remember
As a kid in Morningside Maryland, I remember the pretty seed packages. I recall the vivid colors and beautiful artwork. You could always find the colorful seed packages at Hechinger’s (home improvement store). I recall seed planting offers in Boys’ Life magazines. These are some of my fond memories. Maybe you can start your fond memories with your family. With the cooler temperatures and Covid, why not, we are spending more time at home. This really does offer a pleasant learning opportunity for you and your family.
