I need to make a tomato flyer
I'm selling to locals and the hardware store this spring and I need to make a flyer with small blurbs about all the different tomatoes I will sell. I'm not very hep with the computer etc. Is there any place online where I can find something like this and just cut and paste and print. It's just for my own brief use.

Unless it is specifically listed as being public domain, all written material has copyright protection.
There are web sites with libraries of public domain clip art if you want something like a generic picture of a tomato. There are also plenty web-based or free software programs/sites you can use for word processing or photo editing. |

If you have Microsoft word you can do anything all you have to do is go in google and ask a question and all sorts of stuff pops up.
Like how do I make a flier with microsoft word. Or how do I make the degree symbol with me keyboard. Here is a link to just one of many videos on how to do it. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...1Zv5ugavlyzJwQ I have made all sorts of crazy stuff at work using word. Worth |

The law considers a seed company's description of a variety as a "creative expression" that is protected under copyright law. So change up the wording a little if you copy anything.

I used to make all the signs for a sale I was involved in. I used Microsoft power point. There are templates there with a place for a name in bigger letters, one for a picture, and one for bulleted descriptions. It isn't difficult.

Or you can email vendors/whomever youwish to copy and ask for permission. They may agree, especially if you offer to give them credit for their work ( such as "Brochure made with the kind assistance of zzb seed co.." sort of thing).
