What a summer. I had a trade show in the last week of July that took 6+weeks of prep and the a week at the show and 3 weeks of follow up…Yes, folks that my summer…all 10 weeks of it. On the heels of that, I taught a class in how to raise rabbits for [...]

Hey there, ole’ friend. It’s been a while since I posted. I’ve been busy inside and out. The garden is almost planted, I’ve been harvesting peas, 1.5 pounds so far, as well as the greens and garlic scapes! There are 102 tomato plants in my front yard, and I think all the essentials are in [...]

I grew up on the land where I live now. It has always had poison ivy. I’ve always wondered if I was good at avoiding it, or if I was the rare person who was immune. Well, if I was immune, it has warn off, and I have a case of it. I’ve been using [...]

This morning I was making all sorts of excuses for not going outside to work in the garden. It was supposed to hit 80+ degrees today, and there was no way I was working outside in that heat. After making this decision, I was looking on Facebook, and saw that a friend was lamenting the [...]

For the past few days I’ve been mentally scolding myself for not getting my garden in. It has been so very hot and humid, I’m not great in the heat, and even worse in humidity. I was so sad to think Summer had already arrived and figured we were just in for hot weather. That [...]

I finally got around to making one small batch of Violet Jam. I used syrup as the sweetener, and it tastes good, but lost it’s bright magenta color, as a result. I feel as though Spring can continue on, as I’ve had the opportunity to enjoy both fiddleheads and violets. I don’t want Spring to [...]

Okay, bear with me here. I have a fabulous book recommendation, but it’s title is unconventional. I’m sure the author very much intended this to be the case, but as with many things that we really should be more comfortable with, we aren’t. The book entitled, Holy Shit: Managing Manure To Save Mankind, is all [...]

What a week…or so! I got very tied up with work. I’m running a sale, and over the weekend had a show…oops. Didn’t think that through. The upside is that I managed to do both, pretty well, I just had to drop everything else. But I’m back to life as usual…whatever that might be. What [...]

Seeds arrived today! I got them from my favorite seed company, High Mowing Seeds, in Vermont, and I picked up a few from Sustainable Seed Company. I ended up at Sustainable Seed Company when looking for Organic Quinoa seeds, and they had a couple other things that interested me, that High Mowing didn’t have, like [...]
