An early walk, and a sniff around the zucchini patch that is hanging by a thread, proved a wonderful surpise for dinner tonight. After the freeze...
That is great catch! What are they? I've never fished the ocean - that is a beautiful spot.
@Zigs that was amazingly helpful - thank you so much. I really appreciate it. I think next year I'll shut down one heap in August, and start on...
I am relatively new to composting. The volume we have is not conducive to a bin of any sorts, but to a large pile. A few challenges I have is...
That is a lot of work. What an interesting tool that is. For cutting roots? I'm sorry to hear about the plums, but the exciting prospect of a...
I think because I chose to only use the veg and did not add any cream. :-) I cooked my zucchini, garlic, celery and onions in homemade stock and...

You and your wife are quite inspiring DHR..
Ahhh... @Doghouse Riley ....your drawer looks so organized compared to my hodgepodge stash of containers. It is the cupboard of shame right now....
It has been a very busy few days with the end goal of being ready for winter by the end of September. We drove to get eggs from a neighbour, and...
Garden chores are much fewer now. I trimmed the flowers off of the strawberries. There are still a few hardy souls in there trying to ripen. (...
Thanks for this Odif. Does the age of the wood matter in the nitrogen reaction with the soil? And may I clarify....they are pretty much broken...
I didn't check in on this thread until late last night since my post which I believe was a mistake. I didn't mean to over step on your thread KK...
