Bill,
Isn't Garden Alive the company located across the 'border' in SE Indiana? I
think they are located in Lawrenceburg, Indiana. I have never bought anything
from them but I understand they have a great reputation for organic farming
supplies.
I hope their company does not become "Plants Dead".
BTW anyone know who bought Henry Fields and Spring Hill Nursery?
