| I have already had a few people be so generous and send me seeds to get my new yard going for SASE or with no postage just to get me started. So, I have decided that in my new yard my kids and grandkids will make small cement stepping stones and we will put the name of each person kind enough to share seeds with me. I will have a part of each of you in my garden and the kids will have fun decorating the stones with shells, glass pebbles and the like. If anyone would like a memory stone added to my yard just contact me about sending seeds and we'll put a stone with your name or a pets name or what ever. How great to share my love with you. |

| That is a precious idea! I also love that you're teaching your grandkids to be grateful for small things in a significant way. It will be a beautiful garden. Martha |

| What a great idea but let's find a new name for that garden, as we are all alive! LOL! Something like "Gardening friends garden" |

| Sounds great. The kids wanted to make a stone to memorialize some tiny kittens we fostered that didn't make it. So maybe will do different sections. If anyone wanted to send seeds and have a stone to honor a pet it could go in that section. Seeds from gardening friends will go in the friends section. Thank you for the suggestion and the wonderful seeds. |

| What a lovely idea & fantastic 'teaching' tool for the children. No wonder life began in a garden! |
