Sorry, no Duckweed Right Now
December 10, 2015

For some reason, am suddenly getting many requests for fresh duckweed samples here in the early part of winter. Even though I made that offer two years ago and even personally paid postage on envelope-sized amounts, am still willing to fulfil requests BUT with the following caveats:
- Wait until late spring (May) when my ponds are actively growing again.
- Send me your address in April or May along with….a. $2.00 for a tbsp of fresh duckweed in a zip lock bag in a regular envelope or b. $8.00 for as much as I can pack into a USPS small Priority box. (roughly 2 cups) or c. $90 for a five gallon bucket size (or shipping and container plus $30- whichever is cheaper) This is a mixed species: Lemna turionifera and Wolffia minutia.
- For summer orders of solar-dried duckweed in lots of 1 kg to 1 metric ton, please email me at tamraf9@gmail.com
On a personal note, am restoring my grandfather’s 80 year old rocking chair. Don’t have a bandsaw or I’d make replacements for the broken wood pieces. My grandfather spent most of his senior waking and napping hours in this rocker. Fond memories.
Oh yes, and a VERY fun project- am brewing my first-ever batch of Christmas cheer- a Pilsner in a five gallon bucket.
