Generally speaking, "slicks" don't do well as mulch or compost, but regular newspaper does. I don't use slicks personally. Your son is right about...
Dooley, That market is lucky to have you! Your unique aprons and totes will draw in customers for the other vendors. Having such an event...
You have a great set of neighbors there! I especially like the coot--we have them here, but not nesting. Thank you for sharing your neighborhood...
Lovely harvest, and it's just the beginning!
Oh, that bridge is just perfect! If it ever rains enough here to get a mud puddle going, I'd love to have a bridge like that over it.
Wow! Imagine my surprise when I saw our Gulf Fritillary as the pic of the month. Thank you all for liking it. Our butterflies are such a source...
I'd mix in some composted manure and go ahead and plant the beans. I don't think there will be any residual effect from the onions.
I'm so happy for Glenda and her family and for us here at the Stew. She is a blessing to us all!
Lovely garden, lovely companion dogs. Congratulations on having the best of both worlds!

Wish ours had done as well. :( Someone (or two) is a natural born veggie gardener. No wonder they look a trifle proud!
Toni, you also have an artist's eye. That is a lovely totem!
That is great! I love the asymetrical top in contrast with the conventional bottom. You have an artist's eye (and the ability to figure angles!).
Oh Toni, you are an enabler! Go ahead, feed my need to visit gardens, buy plants, dig holes! I think there may be a trip to Weston in our plans...
Her surgery was scheduled for yesterday, I believe. Perhaps Heather will soon have a chance to let us know how things are going. Until then, let's...
Kildale, NOTHING keeps me out of trouble, but the chicks do occupy a lot of time that might be spent in less respectable pursuits! Cheryl, get...
I heard on the news that to relieve pressure, the Corps of Engineers was releasing water into the Missouri. There is a small town that has a...
OH, that is gorgeous! Your iris certainly looks very healthy, and will undoubtedly multiply quickly. Aren't iris a lovely addition to the garden?
