You’re Planting too Soon
I am the worst offender of this. As soon as there is a warm sunny day I break out the gardening gloves and head outside. I am fully aware that the snow and frost will destroy my dreams a few more times, but I can’t help myself. This year, I feel that, I have better…
Self-seeding Gardening
The garden that grows itself or in other words the lazy man’s garden. Not that I am a lazy gardener, in fact quite the opposite, but why not reuse and and regrow. But I have to admit I didn’t mean to start this method. Remember I am just a beginner. Two springs ago I planted garlic and…

So that meant building raised beds, getting dirt and then going back to get dirt because we did’t get enough. We planted seeds, bought established plants, watered, harvested, ate,…
Plant your hope with good seeds.
As spring creeps closer, hope is all I have for this years garden. Hope that my seeds germinate. Hope that the starts do not die off before getting transplanted. Hope that my honey-do-list of building new planter boxes and raised beds are finished in time. And hope that my garden and children grow happy and…
