I agree with the above. This seems to be an issue across wiki entries for Richard Brautigan, as his website remains down. I have attempted to find citations which can confirm all of the information in this page but there is still a lot more work that needs to be done to find information which confirms the minor details which make this article so interesting.
So far the following main articles provide the following information:
https://poets.org/poet/richard-brautigan
  • the book had 8 self published poems on the back of separate seed packet envelopes
https://exhibitions.library.columbia.edu/exhibits/show/global-revolutions/new-movements-rise/please-plant-this-book
  • There are 6000 individual copies created
https://static.lib.virginia.edu/sixties/lit/1968/index.html
  • It was intended to be a free handout. (But not that subsequent re-releases were permitted under the condition they were free)

  • “Brautigan’s original work contained passages on California native flowers, carrots, lettuce, calendula, squash, shasta daisy, parsley and sweet Alyssum royal carpet”
