Even though snow was on the ground and the temperatures very cold outside, thoughts were turning to spring and planting season in the RARA building in Lexington Saturday morning. The second annual free seed event sponsored by the Rockbridge Area Master Gardeners drew a crowd of approximately 100, and almost all of the Master Gardeners’
1,000 seed packets were claimed within a half hour. For more on the event, see page B8. (Mary Woodson photo)
