I thought that before I start seeds I should take a little bit of inventory as to what I have, what I want to eat this summer, and how much of it I actually want to grow. With my new apartment I have a drastic reduction in the amount of space I have therefore I am either going to need to buy more of what I eat at a farmers' market, CSA, or Kroger or find an alternative planting spot to my current residence.
So lets start with my seed inventory:

Almost all of these seeds I was lucky enough to have given to me while I worked with Grow Food, Grow Hope in Wilmington. Of course that also makes them quite a few months old and have been through a move, a new apartment, and stored in my basement so I'm not sure how viable many of them are going to be. But I'm certainly ready to find out!
