Howdy neighbors - For any of you getting a late start on your gardening - I've got you covered! I've got some great tomato seedlings and other garden plants available for your summer pleasure! I've got tomatoes aplenty - Kellogg, Roma, Mortgage Lifter, Yellow Pear, and two patio varieties - Iditarod Red and Azyochka. They're 4-8" tall each. Raspberries in pots - very hardy, double-bearing (I was picking as late as Nov last year! These guys are indestructible. Swamp milkweed - irresistible to Monarch caterpillars.

Email me to set up a time for pickup! Helen

For Father's Day: S.3036 info, preventing forced separation of families
by Lauren Sims 17 Jun '18

17 Jun '18

https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/senate-bill/3036/text This summary from a friend who is a Congressional research librarian: *This Senate bill just focuses on legislating the issue of family separation, which NPR did a good bit on **(I think on Friday June 15)**. They explained that the forced separation of families is not - as Sessions put it - "law," rather, it's an executive (i.e., Trump-led-DHS) interpretation of a judicial decision (not sure which one). Previous administrations detained families crossing illegally but kept them together. There is no law on the books about it, so Congress can change that.* She went on to say: *There are also a bunch of immigration reform bills in the House and I haven't been following them. They're broader and many are Republican in origin (build the wall, etc.) I think there's at least one introduced by a Democrat and it may be more along the lines of the DREAM act + border security funding but I'm not sure.* Senator Casey is a co-sponsor of S.3036, so please call to thank him. Senator Toomey, to the best of my knowledge, has not yet signed on to support S.3036. Happy Father's Day - let's celebrate by helping keep families together. Lauren

Home Depot references
by Pamela Barentine 17 Jun '18

Thanks to all who responded to my Home Depot kitchen inquiry. Very helpful! My experience with Home Depot on another home project (installing flooring) was excellent. They discovered I had some old asbestos tiles under the carpeting, which needed to be removed before Home Depot could do the installation. Was able to find a very good asbestos removal guy. Extremely professional. If anyone needs such work done (unfortunately), contact me and I can send you his name. Thanks again!
