References and Resources

I'm downsizing and find I no longer have room for my 20-years of Fine Gardening magazines. Strangely, the local garden clubs have no interest in them. Possibly the local library or nursing home may have an interest but still...

Any suggestions?

I would love to buy some of them from you. I have some of the old ones but I'm missing a lot of them.

How very nice of you to offer to purchase these magazines. I really could not sell them to a fellow gardener -- but I could "give" them. Right now, however, my local garden society has finally contacted me about them. I shall see what they propose. If in fact they have no real use for them I shall be more than happy to give them to you.

I shall keep your message and let you know what transpires. In the meantime, the days are getting longer and the sun is at a higher angle. Unfortunately the snow continues here in northern Minnesota. But Spring IS coming!

Try your local library. Perhaps the Friends of the Library can sell them to raise money for the library.

You could sell some of them to your fellow gardeners, and donate the $ to the library, thus making everyone happy!

Or she could give them to me, and I could sell them to my fellow ggardeners, making me happy.

Also, I am considering getting into the business of seling lightly used Felco's - anyone interested?

just warning you about selling the lightly-used felcos -- don't try to sell me the ones i lost in the undergrowth a couple of years ago. i might take umbrage. (and you wouldn't want to be with out your umbrage, would you?)
