If I plant them, will they come?

no, not that kinda plant! 

Perhaps one way to energize the hobby is to plant boxes. But then, how to get the word out, especially to those who have stepped away? 

Well, I am gonna plant regardless.

"Hi, my name is SHH ... and I have a bazillion stamps just collecting dust in a dark corner of our garage."

True story. 

I have thought that some of those lonely and forgotten stamps may be wanted by 'boxers across the country who want to plant. That is a possibility. I have also pulled some out to plant here in my town, because the ocean is calling! I have begun to prep boxes (read pouches) that are plant-ready to keep in my car. My poor companion ... every time we heading anywhere now, I want to stop somewhere to snoop out a spot to plant. He just chuckles. *smile* He puts up with me.

We planted two on our last trip to the central coast of Oregon - gosh, I love that area. And those two plants started the fever. "Plant, my pretties ... plant!"

I have heard a rumor that boxers near me planted many boxes for the 'plant love not covid' event (that I unfortunately missed). In fact, I even heard the champion of that effort is as close as a day's drive. Woot! They are certainly on my radar!
