Rising Gas Prices... Who cares! Lets go to Monster Jam!!




With all the news about the rising price of fuel and the economy, you think it would have an impact on big cars and trucks on the road! But not at this year's Monster Jam show in London Ontario, held Feb 19 + 20 at the JLC. With over 4,500 tickets sold for all three shows held the two days, the cost of fuel was not on anybodies mind!

In fact, having carryover seed on hand often presents a strategic advantage for both seed growers and farmers. The Alberta-British Columbia Seed Growers’ Association (ABCSG) has offered a carryover listing service since around 2009, before the Canadian Seed Growers’ Association (CSGA) added carryover capability to the national Seed Locator in 2018. For Greg Stamp of Stamp Seeds, carryover seed — certified seed that simply wasn’t sold the year it was produced — is a natural part of running a pedigreed seed business.
