They are a seed company in Blue Earth, South MN.

That's the name of the place where we are (hopefully) gonna do some volunteer work. I just wanted to check  it out as much as I could before we totally commit to it as we would be staying there....

Anyone know anything?
Any comments appreciated, even if it's just to say that you have heard of the company,
Thanks

I have never heard of them but I don't buy seeds. I googled them and they seem legit. It must be in farm country down south of me, probably 3 or more hours drive I would guess. What kind of volunteer work do they ask for?

Hi Patti,
They are asking for:

"Expect to help with weeding, planting, seed collecting, restoration projects or whatever other farm projects need to be done. English is spoken but we are open to others if we can work to communicate with one another. Expect to be working outside all the time unless it is raining."

In return, they give us a place to stay, food and we get to learn interesting things!

We had a few similar things lined up, when we thought we were coming for 3 months and have had to cancel the rest.

We've emailed them a couple of times and it appears we have things in common....y'know, as people. They seem very nice people. But you can never be too careful, lol.
