Find Bird & Bee at 2020 Seedy Saturday Events: Picton Feb 29 Ottawa March 7 Pembroke March 8 Kingston March 14 Cornwall March 21 Mid-Winter: Garden BrainstormingIf you're anything like us, you've barely noticed the cold this week because you've been daydreaming about the garden. What are you going to plant? How many new varieties will you try? What worked well last year? What will you try differently? This is a fun time of year. Maybe you're itching to get some seedlings started - and although it's still a little early to plant, it's not too early to order! Might we suggest a few heat-lovers to add to your your daydream-y crop plan: *Start these heat-loving friends indoors 6-8 weeks before you plan to transplant. In Ottawa, that means start them sometime mid-April.* Purple Calabash Tomato A very ugly purple heirloom, and it tastes good too. Rideau Sweet Tomato Bred in Kingston, a variety of cherry- to grape-sized tomatoes. Reds, burnt-oranges to burgundies. Heirloom. Blanche du Quebec Tomato A stocky, reliable producer of yellow fresh-eating tomatoes. Heirloom. Grandma Mary Tomato Consistent and high producing. Medium sized paste tomato. Make sauce in abundance! Heirloom. Little Bell Sweet Pepper Very prolific robust plants, producing tennis-ball sized peppers. Open Source Seed Initiative (OSSI) pledged variety. Tangerine Bell Sweet Pepper Cheerful bright orange sweet peppers. Open Source Seed Initiative (OSSI) pledged variety.
