Umpleby's Bakery & Café

We have a new holiday cookie in the case.  It is my fellow baker, Lauren’s  creation.  We are going to call it Christmas Swirl!

Opened the mailbox after work today and lo and behold! – The 2022 Fedco Seed Catalogue!!   (I’ll scan the cover page and post it later)

We have been ordering from Fedco for a bit over 10 years so we are relative new comers so maybe the old timers will know if the catalogue has ever come out in November before.  As far as I know I haven’t seen it before December.  A very nice Thanksgiving surprise!

Time to start compiling seed lists!

Next year we are going to go all in on raised beds.  The weeds seem to win every year from lack of continual vigilance and Carolyn and I have finally come to the conclusion that raised beds are our only hope of having a chance against them.
