I'm under the assumption it is still being fairly well packed, and participants will need the (Priority Mail) Large Flat Rate Box?

And, the black permanent (I hope) marker descriptions of contents on the large baggies inside are still legible?

It was a very full large priority box, but I taped the heck out of it. :D

The only baggies I noticed that had fading labels were the ones that were nearly empty.

You did good!
SO GLAD to be back! I was locked out for about three months, for some strange reason. :shock:

Missed you all terribly! :cry:

Which ones were nearly empty?

I'll get that by evening. Did the summer squash make it to you?
Yes, squash is included in the box. :)

Sorry, I'm not sure. All the tomatoes were good, herbs, peas, beans, flowers....

I'll ask the next person down the line about the nearly empty ones. I'm not sure if I included some garlic (bulbils and maybe bulbs). If so, there wouldn't be much, and would likely be depleted very quickly. There is also the chance that someone added new categories of seeds in new large baggies.

And next year, I'll likely put a large category label inside of each large baggie, so there wouldn't be any possible labeling problem.

When I had the box there were many bean categories and a few were empty or nearly empty but other bean categories had quite a few. The garlic (babies) bulbils were gone as I claimed the last of them. ;) It was a challenge getting that box closed.

I've read on another thread that beans and peppers are low.
I can add several peppers when the box gets to me.
I also have Asian long beans to add, if anyone downstream from me is in a hot-summer climate where these kinds of beans can thrive.
