Seed Saving...

For those of you who like to garden,  I would like to give you some tips on how to save the expense of purchasing new seeds every year.  Most people do not know that many different types of vegetable seed can be saved from each succeeding harvest, from year to year.

One example is that of squash seed.  Almost any kind of squash that you enjoy eating will work for this project.  First, let a couple of your squashes mature to the point where the vine starts to die off before picking.  Next, cut in half the entire squash to collect seeds, rinse seeds under water in a collander or strainer.  Then, spread these seeds out -either on a paper plate or some wax paper in order to dry them.  It can take anywhere from several days to an entire week to completely dry out.  Place seeds in a small envelope of your choosing.  Label them as to what they are.  And store in an air tight container or jar for your garden the following year.  Not only will this technique work for squash, but it will also work for other types of seed as well.  You are welcome to experiment for yourself to see what works best for you. 

Anyone else who would like to give more seed saving advice, is welcome to comment....

HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP NAME CHANGE...

Hello everyone,

The leaders of the CORN INDUSTRY have intruduced a proposal to change the name of High Fructose Corn Syrup to "Corn Sugar" ....This would not be a good situation because of the health issues related to this product. People might get confused and think it is a safe product when studies have demonstrated that there are correlations between High Fructose Corn Syrup consumption and OBESITY, DIABETES, and other health issues as well.

A National Consumer Watchdog groups has petitioned the FDA to stop this from happening.  Please learn more about this issue by clicking on the following link:
