First 2008 Seed Catalogs Arrived Today
I think this is some kind of record. I've never received next year's seed catalogs on December 1st before. I received "Totally Tomatoes 2008" and "Vermont Bean Seed Company" in today's mail.

Any comments pro/con for these two companies would be appreciated. I've never bought from them before.

Also, did anybody else get any seed catalogs today?

Totally Tomatoes and Vermont Bean Seed Company are both fully owned by Jung Seed Co. of Randolph, WI. Both had previously been owned by Wayne Hilton and put up for sale as a block of companies along with Shumway. Jung's had been interested only in purchasing Shumway but was given a choice to take the whole lot or nothing. They took them all.
