It seemed like a good idea at the time....

Some days the internet is made of awesome

Earlier this month I joined Seed Savers Exchange, a non-profit group dedicated to preserving heirloom vegetables, by ordering a membership off of their on-line store. Then I accessed the online version of the Yearbook, the database which lists all the seeds that SSE members have to offer other SSE members. I used it to start an email exchange with a gentleman in Oklahoma who had seeds of an heirloom tomato I am interested in trying this year. This culminated in my sending him the fee for the seeds tonight via paypal. All so I could participate in the ancient practice of growing a vegetable, saving some of its seeds, and growing it again next year.

It's awesome, isn't it?
