Daytrip to Burpee for Seeds
Wednesday, March 10th, 2010
We are so lucky here in Southeastern Pennsylvania that we live only about an hour from the Burpee Seeds headquarters. Ok, well, I’m lucky because I adore perusing and picking out seeds, my dear husband could care less. In fact he laughs at me and shakes his head when I get all excited in January when the new seed catalogs arrive in the mail.
Of course, the joke’s on him, because my obsession has rubbed off on the kids…ha!
So the four of us (the three kids and I) headed out to the Burpee Outlet store the other day….it was wonderful. Hundreds and hundreds of vegetable and flower seeds to choose from. But I behaved.
We only spent a little over and hour there, and I used some self control and only bought 6 different types of tomato seeds (I get ever more excited about tomatoes, and have been known to try 10 different varieties in a season.) And we only spent $56 which included some flower seeds for Makenna (really, they weren’t all mine.) And ok, ok, I will admit, I had already bought a few packs at Home Depot a week ago
It is a sickness….I admit it.
But seriously, if you live not too far from Warminster, PA and like planting a garden, the Burpee headquarters is worth a trip. All the seeds you could imagine, and all at a discounted price!
