In earlier years Baker’s would have little inserts here and there very much leftist. I finally decided there are so many good nurseries out there- so many options for quality seeds/plants and heirlooms I could do without them. Others might be also but I guess if I don’t know, I can support them. At least if they are, they keep their opinions out of their catalogs.
They still do, sometimes their catalogs can get pretty preachy. And their prices are rather high.
I’m still building my collection of heirlooms, so I’m still ordering from them when there’s a variety I want that I can’t find elsewhere, but I’m saving seeds so I’ll only have to order each variety once.
