Gloeckner & Co. is in Harrison, NY. They sent this letter dated January 15, 2002, with their seeds, sent by UPS.
"The US Post Service has advised us that ALL MAIL PARCELS will be irradiated or subjected to some form of treatment to eliminate the possibilities of Anthrax contamination. . . . Because of the current situation we will not be sending or accepting returns of any seeds or plants sent via the US Post Office..." All of my other seed orders have arrived by U.S. Mail without warnings (FEDCO, Johnny's, Park's). Seems like the key is proximity to DC and NYC? Susan Susan
