Excellent points. I had not considered this. Now I will. Read it in the nick of time, too. There will always be gardeners who shrug off pesticides. I had a babysitter from Eastern Europe who told me about cities she could not visit for more than a day because they were so polluted. Didn't people continue to live in Chernobyl? Given the choice, I'd rather not. I'll take my seeds, too, chemical free, thankyou. --- On Tue, 3/5/13, piaba <piabinha@yahoo.com> wrote: From: piaba <piabinha@yahoo.com> Subject: [pbs] Fw: Fwd: opinion piece on seed vendors To: "PBS" <pbs@lists.ibiblio.org> Date: Tuesday, March 5, 2013, 4:53 PM http://nytimes.com/2013/03/… > > > >this is an interesting article about what to consider when choosing a seed vendor... > > >======= >tsuh yang
