“Us southerners have it hard out here” yes!

[@GARDENSTATEGARDENER]

I love seed hauls. I give out seeds everyday and love this

[@jesswelsh9838]

I recently found your channel and I had to subscribe right away. I love your shorts videos of picking the veggies, soooo satisfying. Your seed haul is amazing. Happy growing❤

[@christiensgarden3325]

Another great KZbin is Lazy Dog Farm and he has great seeds too

[@emkn1479]

Did you end up liking the mache? It’s a favorite here.

[@sethkellas9144]

Really hope you can put Kevin and Jacques to shame with the peanuts next year!

[@meggrowsplants]

Check out my new peanut video I posted a couple weeks ago! I did put them to shame (:

What is your gardening zone?

[@VivianfFurlow]

Please hold the seed packets still instead of emphasizing with them.

Have you tried any seeds from Monticello? They have direct descendants from Thomas Jefferson's vegetable garden.

Is there a follow up to this video? How did you like them??

Fruition is local to me and I love their seed selection! I have grown thr Italian paste ans it is very productive ans tasty. Tried the lemon ice tomato in 2021 and it was good but not my favorite. I planted 30 San Marzano tomatoes last year and got a bumper harvest and made lots of sauce!

[@meggrowsplants]

Good to know!! I’m so excited to try the Italian paste ❤️

[@kelsierothwell5789]

You should check out sow true seed out of Asheville Nc ! I really enjoy their selection

[@meggrowsplants]

I love them!!

[@hilltophomeplace6802]

Italian Heirloom is a wonderful tomato. I grew it for the first time last year and have it going again this year. Fabulous flavor.❤️

[@Marlee509]

I ordered Violet Sparkle pepper seeds, too (from Baker Creek), to try for the first time this year! This will be my first go at a spring/summer garden from seed completely on my own. Hoping to rig up the tomato and pepper seeds I’m trying out this year in the next couple of weeks, too! I’ll definitely be following along with your journey. As a fellow NC gardener, it’s been super helpful to learn from your processes. 💙✨🌱

[@physicaltech12]

Hope you have a great start with the new virieties

[@physicaltech12]

How do you make okra?

[@emilygardner]

I think that it's interesting to know which companies grow the seeds themselves vs the ones that are big enough that they outsource some of their seed growing to small farmers. Like MIGardener talks about having partnerships with many small seed farmers. And baker creek seeds. Edit to add: so it's not possible to know where the seeds were harvested from/adapted to I'm also trying home made pickle cucumbers and peanuts this year too!

[@emilygardner]

Oh and Grounded Haven Homestead is a Virginia channel that is grew peanuts successfully this last year (and in 2021). She has a really soothing, informative style of videos. I highly recommend!

[@meggrowsplants]

Yea you have to keep that in mind too. But when you’re buying from local small farms and they say on they’re website that they are grown there, you know they’re grown on directly on their farm and are regionally adapted, like Kids Seed Co! And Southern Exposure, while they may outsource, all of their seeds are still coming from the south! But the huge companies like baker creek you def never know where those seeds are coming from

[@meggrowsplants]

@@emilygardner also I will definitely go look at that video!! I am so excited to be growing peanuts this year! Thank you for the rec (:
