Thanks for the sympathetic reply, Todd. It was definitely a tough experience that will not soon be forgotten, but has been richer for all the kind support we received from the broader farming community.
Perhaps I'll have another chance to launch on my own one day. But for now, I'm content riding someone else's coat tails. ;-)
All the best,

I can't afford the seed but just wanted to say my thoughts are with you. Having had to deal with this last season must have been tough. Best of luck on the rebound.

Our CSA was destroyed by the Spring 2010 flood in Middle Tennessee, and we haven't been able to restart the project. I have over $1,800 worth of organic seed purchased for the 2010 season. Most of it is from Johnny's and High Mowing, with a few items each from Fedco and Southern Exposure Seed Exchange. All but a couple of the larger bags of seed are unopened, original packets, and everything has been stored cool and dry.
The collection contains a variety of crops in quantities appropriate for a 60-member CSA. I have a complete inventory that I can send if you email me off the list.
I'm hoping to find someone interested in the entire batch, and it seems like it would be a great opportunity for a small CSA or non-profit garden project.
I'm asking $1100 plus shipping, or best offer, for the whole lot. It really needs to go in the ground this year!
I have the seed here at Red Fire Farm in MA, so if you're in the northeast, it could be picked up pretty easily.
All the best,
