(Marlin, is Johnny's OK with you for those of us who
would like to help out? )
How touching to experience the sense of community here
amongst folks,many of whom I have never met! Yes, for those of you who
wish to help, Johnny's is a satisfactory place to send donations. They
have been one of my favorite suppliers for years. In fact I just placed a
fairly large order of seeds and tools with them several days ago. I guess
it would be OK if you would want to apply something to that account. Thank
you so very much!
I must hasten to mention that another of my suppliers,
E & R Seeds, in response to my request to resend the order I had placed
around Jan 25, sent the order in what appeared to be a considerably larger box
than the one containing my earlier order. In the top was a brief note
telling me that as a very small token of compensation for my loss they would not
charge me anything for the replaced seed. As I began digging into the
packing peanuts covered contents I found other things besides seeds--a pack of
socks, two blankets, and several towels. This is what I would call going
the second mile and I had not even asked them to go the first mile with
me. I need to order a few more seeds from them to round out my seed needs
and plan to send a check in the mail in the next couple of days along with a
letter of gratitude and a promise to send them some hard copy of the story
I am presently in process of writing about the fire. I think they are
Amish and do not use the Internet. I would encourage all of you to give
some of your seed and supplies business to E & R Seed in the future as I
believe they are honest and deserving, hard working people.
