Been quite a while since I have been on here. I had health issues and have been a caregiver for my husband . Now a widow for a year, and trying to get back to what feels like a normal life. I look forward to searching to see who is still on that i used to follow.

I have just taken a canner of beef stew off the burner. I like one jar meals :-)

The straw bale garden sounds interesting. Do you have troublewith mice or snakes taking up residence?

Land,pretty bird, come on I dare ya

I have not been on here for a long time, due to health, and my hubbys health. I am anxious to look through and see how many familiar names are still here. We are going to try tall raised beds this year, they have to be waist high for me to use them, Our son in law started some from old sheet...

I joined a seed of the month club, and have started Bradley Tomatoes from it. I had never heard of them, they are determinate, has anyone tried them, how do you like them?

I am planting nothing outside, ground stays to wet to get garden ready!! :-(

I bought some one time a few years ago. it said not to use for food products, maybe there are some that is for food, I just never bought any more. I used what I had for house plant cuttings etc.. Don't think I noticed much diiference

The only planting that I am doing is in my mind, seed catalogs are coming in the mail, its time to drool and dream, then get down to business by practical planning of what we need,what we like and what will grow the best in this area.

Thank you, I did not see it, it was a friend in Texas that found it in her flower garden.. I think she also figured out what it was.

I did not get anything out of the garden today, but I have canned a mix of turnip tops and wild greens the past week. Its too wet to get in the garden for now. We need to pick the spinach.

We have something besides gardening in common, I am a homeschooling grandma :-0

Today, I hoed a 50ft row of onions! Yeah, for once we got them in early, they are growing and greening up early!!

Finally got out my seed storage container, and decided what I need to buy for this year. I think I will mostly be using up left over seed. No big decisions. I hope that I can start my tomato and pepper seed this weekend.
