Should the Seed Savers site and my pc decide to cooperate ;) I plan to order a Romaine variety lettuce from them as well as Calendula.
For onions this year, I decided I only will try a few from seed with the seeds I have left from last year. Instead, I am hoping for better luck with the sets I ordered from Dixondale Farms.
I also have some seeds from trades I made over the past year, including the seeds I received from Suzanne. She sent me seeds for Asparagus, Squash, Cherry tom's, Butternet and Zulu pumpkins.
So what kinds of things are you planting this year? Trying anything new?

Thanks for the link to Dixondale.
I've never heard of them but liked what they had to offer. I too am starting onion seeds (growing as we speak) but I'd like to hedge my bets a bit with some sets too.
Onions and strawberries are the last things on my list, so I went ahead and took your advice and bought the onions from Dixiondale. I'm trying a "sampler" of intermediate day onions.
Oh you are getting me excited about spring time. You put in quite an extensive order. Isn't it fun scouring the seed sites and catelogs.Can't wait to play in the dirt again. I really like the squashes, and of course the tomatoes.
My, you are going to be busy this spring, Allison! Looking forward to seeing how all of these do. :)
Good luck with all your seeds! I'm not going to have anything if I don't get off my rump and get my seeds planted! :O
I am hoping to sit down with the family tonight and figure out what we are going to buy this year and we are really hoping for a less crazy Spring than last year (it was still snowing in April!).
Great list! You are going to love Long Island Cheese Squash! It is delicious!!
