Baker Creek Seeds Introduction


The time is finally here! We've been working on getting our garden spots tilled up and ready to plant all of the delicious fruits and vegetables that we enjoy. I am a little more excited this year than usual because I will be planting Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds! All of their seed are non-hybrid, non-GMO, non-treated and non-patented.


I will be receiving the Home Gardener's Collection that includes: 1 Bean, 1 Carrot, 1 Eggplant, 1 Garden Peas, 2 Herbs, 1 Hot Pepper, 1 Lettuce, 1 Melon, 1 Salad Blend, 1 Onion, 1 Oriental Greens, 1 Radish, 1 Snow Peas, 1 Spinach, 2 Sweet Peppers, 2 Tomatoes, 1 Turnip and the Baker Creek Vegan Cookbook.


Just look at how beautiful their vegetables are!

Cinnamon Lettuce

Corn

Shishigatani (Asian pumpkin)

These photos are taken from their site just to show you the beauty. I will be updating my blog throughout the gardening season with photos of my own. 

Baker Creek carries one of the largest selections of seeds from the 19th century, including many Asian and European varieties. The company has become a tool to promote and preserve our agricultural and culinary heritage. Our company and seeds have been featured in The New York Times, The Associated Press, Oprah Magazine, Martha Stewart, and many others.

    How fantastic! I love the idea of such a variety of quality seeds. I've been wanting to start a "real" garden; I did a container of tomatoes and another of jalapenos last year; they both worked out well! Good luck with your neato garden this year.

    Missed it - they are all ready out of the 2013 catalogs. They probably sent them out months ago. I love to look thru them and read about the new vegetables that they have as I have planted my own garden for many years now.
    So many great new things to see . thanks

    I tried a garden in pots last year, some of them grew but others got attacked by a horn worm. Might have to do the garden thing in an area in the ground this year, I know plants grow better in the ground. I never heard of this brand but will look for it

    I love gardening and I have heard of Baker Creek before, from homesteaders. I figure they are better gardeners than me! Lol - So I regard their opinion as well as yours. Great Company

Kalorik Steam Mop Review and Giveaway Ends 1-26-13

I recently had the pleasure of working with  Kalorik  and do a review of their  Kalorik Steam Mop . This couldn't have came at a better time. I'm in the "New Year, New You" mode right now and there are lots of things I want to change. Harsh Chemical use is one of those things. The Kalorik Steam Mop works off of ordinary tap water! No detergents, soaps or chemicals needed! You can use the Kalorik Steam Mop to clean linoleum, ceramic tile, stone, marble, carpet, sealed hardwood, parquet and more! It's also very light weight and easy to use! I spoke with Kalorik via email on a Wednesday morning, and less than 48 hours my product arrived via FedEx! Two Thumbs Up! Upon arrival, it took all of 10 minutes to have it open, put together, and ready to use. It came with 2 small screws to attach the base to the actual cleaner, throw a microfiber pad on the base and we were ready to steam! I have hardwood flooring in my entire house so floor care is not something t...

Mabel's Labels Review

  Signs of April receives free products for review purposes and may sometimes be compensated for posts. Posts may also contain affiliate (marketing) links. Thank you to  Mabel's Labels  for sending out their Name Label Gift Pack for us to review.  Labeling is pretty important this day in time. Especially when you have children in school.  Being organized and having everything labeled is very important in our home and even more important for her school items.  We were able to customize our labels, as you will as well. Emma, aka The Baby Child, LOVES any and everything Unicorn so that's what we went with.  Things are often very easily picked up and never returned because something wasn't labeled with a name. She's also very notorious for leaving things at school or on the bus, so these labels will be a game changer!  The Name Label Gift Pack comes with 25 labels which is more than enough to label her school items.  We labeled her lunchbox, ben...

Never Go Down Without A Fight: One Mom's Struggle to Fight CPS

Many people don't know a whole lot about my personal life. I normally keep things quiet and just post my reviews and go on about my day. I started this blog to do coupon match ups but quickly found that I liked doing reviews and hosting the amazing giveaways. It pretty much keeps my mind occupied from the struggles I face and have faced daily the past 4 years.  Four years ago (next month) I lost custody of my then 8 year old daughter. She had gone to her Dad's for a 2 week summer visit in July of 09. I let her go a few days early simply because we weren't doing anything big here at home, however I told them that she would probably be needing a visit to the the Dr by the next morning because she had just gotten into some poison ivy and it would probably be spread by the next morning, but if they were willing to take her, then she could come early. The two weeks came and went and I didn't hear much from anyone. They had taken a trip to Panama City Beach so I didn...
