As winter approaches, the garden has been covered for a long, winter's sleep. This week, I only dried and packaged a few tomato seeds. I believe...
Nothing left to do in the garden. Everything is picked, covered, tucked away. Winter? Bring it on! Actually, I'm hoping for a mild winter....
Marlingardener, we should all love bees. Honey is delicious and medicinal. Plus, without them, our produce / fruit is doomed. I can imagine how...

Thanks Mart. It seems I'm always learning new things here in the stew.
Oh dear Netty. It's a wonder I'm not dead. I have almost always washed freshly pulled carrots in white vinegar solution, scrubbed with a brush and...
Carolyn, No doubt you will stay fit and have great cardiac health with all that shoveling. Just be sure to not overdo. Netty, I hope you have...
