Sow Right Seeds online order, fulfillment and delivery were all seamless. Congrats! You have a nice niche and appear to operate a well-run business. Due to the small plot, I ordered 12 single packs. They were just enough. Some extra would have been better, yet at $45 delivered, what I did order was more cost than I wanted to spend. The seed supplier I used in the past dropped their seed product line. They were a very cost effective source and were local.
