Valentine’s Shopping…

Happy Valentine’s Day!

I woke up this morning and got an email from a local Ace Hardware with a 90% off Valentine’s Day coupon (up to $25), so I went for a visit to see what I can get. I was looking for a power flusher thing, but they didn’t have one, so I kept looking. I found some Slug and Snail Pellets from Whitney Farms that was ok for organic gardening, so I got that with the coupon… It was $24.99 and it rang up $2.50!!! What a great deal!!! Thanks Benicia Ace Hardware!!!

I then headed to Navlet’s Garden Center in Martinez and Concord to search for veggies and I found some:
Kale ‘Rainbow Lacinato’ (I’ve heard of Lacinato (or Dino) Kale, but now Rainbow)
Kale ‘Siberian’
Lettuce ‘Red Romaine’
Lettuce ‘Wildfire Mix’
Parsley ‘Triple Curled’
