Everyone here at Park Seed Company gets excited when customers take time to share stories and especially photos of their gardening successes.
Here’s a really nice message I received a few months ago:
My wife is making out her seed order today, and we wanted to let you know how pleased she is to find that you have brought back Tropic Giant cabbage. We make our own kraut (none of that store stuff for us), and in 1997 she tried it. We've never had such nice big cabbage before or since. It made fine kraut. Hadn't been able to find it again until now, and we hope you have it regularly after this.
The photo attached is from an old film negative, but it gives an idea. The big heads are, of course, Tropic Giant.
Thank you.
Lew D.
Thank you, Lew, for giving everybody here a big smile. We really want to make our customers happy, and it's a joy to hear from those who are!
I would love to put your story here on our blog. Got a giant veggie of your own to awe and amaze us all? How about the largest blooms you've ever seen? Or perhaps just a snapshot of your kids and pets playing in the garden patch. Please email me at ckuhl@parkseed.com with your story, your photos, and your permission to share them. Also, you are welcome to make comments about the stories that appear on this blog. Either way, I look forward to hearing from you!
Gosh—with 7 million customers to hear from, this blog could keep me really busy. Sounds good to me!
