I've been finishing up harvesting, sorting and bagging all the seeds I collected from the massive flower gardens I was blessed with this year. I have tons of extra seeds if anyone would like some. Gardening is my "happy place" so I find it only right to share the beauty that I love so much with others. Below is a list of what I currently have and will update it as I get everything sorted and bagged, so if you see something on the list you'd like, just let me know and I'll set some aside for you. Even if you live far away, it costs little more than a stamp to send most seeds, so dont be afraid to speak up if something catches your fancy. God blessed me so abundantly this year with such beautiful gardens and an amazing seed harvest, I want to share the bounty with others. If you'd like some seeds, just shoot me a message, and yes, they're free.

Seed List:
Assorted Zinnia
Calendula
Mixed Camellia Balsam (Touch Me Nots)
Assorted Coleus
Assorted Morning Glory (Blue, Purple, Lavender, Pink, White, Red)
Assorted Marigold
Moonflower (Datura)
Moonflower Vine
Sweet Basil
Lemon Balm

Hi All,
I have 3 roosters that need a new home. Free to whoever wants them, Donna gets first dibs...they came from her awesome eggs! All hatched in April. Two are from her Sapphire eggs and one is an enormous English Orpington. All well behaved around people, horses and dogs, just not around each other. One of the white ones is missing part of his comb as a result. I'm happy to meet you on the West side of Nashville to hand them over. Just PM me if you want one or more. Thanks!

Hoping all our East TN neighbors are safe...

It seems like I have been without orpingtons for longer than that! Mottled Eng Orpington looks like. The other 2 cockerels should carry one copy of the blue egg gene and they have some White leghorn in them for production. Let me check on the Mottled... I might know someone that needs him.

Just let me know! I have given away the dominant white rooster, so only one white one left. The one with part of his comb missing. The big Orp is still available.

I am with you! I am DONE till next year... early but next year. I have been VERY restrained this year. I didn't hatch for about 5 months and when I did hatch it was every 3 weeks and not every few days or a week apart. I kind of liked it too. NOT GOING TO HAVE FULL BROODERS THIS WINTER! Now my pullets growing out... I have in spades but I can sell them in the spring.
