| I just found a store in Portland I hadn't even known existed, Concentrates, when I was looking for a source for Perlite. They also have animal feeds, potting soil, coco fiber, etc. Their prices are great!

| It's in unassuming building on an unlikely street, but they have advertised heavily on Mike Darcy's Saturday morning garden show on KXL for years. Other than that, my wife and I couldn't recall a print ad or where we heard of it, been buying there for about 10 years. Where did you hear of Concentrates? |

| larry gene- I was looking for a big bag of Perlite since I ran out last year, and the local nurseries had about doubled in price, so I googled it and found a processor in Portland and one of their distributors is Concentrates. I'm happy to have find a good supplier of organic materials and feed.:-) |

| Never heard of it! I buy similar items at Rain or Shine on Airport Way. I loved Mike Darcy's TV program, but have never heard the radio program. Should I try to listen? When is it on? |

| buyorsell- you should check out their price list. Speaking of prices, does anyone know a local source for greenhouse 4 year plastic since I'm thinking of making some covered growing areas for tomatoes this year after the cold summer and early rains we had last year. Nancy |

| Rain/Shine is handy if you're on the east side, but ducking into their parking lot from Airport Way traffic can be a hazard. Concentrates is way in on SE 8th off Division in a light-industrial area. Much bigger selection than Rain/Shine. I guess they should do more advertising! |

| Does anybody know if there is a supplier like this north of Seattle? The feed stores I've checked in the Monroe/Snohomish area have only carried alfalfa pellets. I'd like to find bigger bags of other products to make some of Ann Lovejoy's recommended fertilizer mixes. |
