Real Spring Onions

My spring onions are going to seed in the most beautiful way and the bees are just loving it!

We're loving it!

 I've been watching them burying themselves up to their little pollen knees for weeks now, with no letting up...

The seed of an idea.

Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds: Started in Mansfield, Missouri by 17 year-old Jere Gettle in 1998.

I have always been very taken with the idea of heirloom seed - something that is as nature intended. Something that carries within it part of our human history. I came across this post on Design Sponge that got me excited all over again. I would love to buy my seeds like this, wouldn't you?
