We recently took our 2 pigs to the market, and I was planning on putting the tomatoes in that area. It should get the 8 hours of sunlight, but it might be a bit less. Does this seem like a good plan?

One of my favorite things to do when we go to Cold Sone Creamery is to pay for the people behind me. Then quick get out the door before they can be all gushy and say thanks. What's better than a surprise free ice cream???

well, if you're gonna think outside the traditional, I've heard that bat guano is the way to go

That far North, I'm thinking it's after Mother's Day before you can put stuff out.

I am planting the idea of 2 piglets to grow through next winter into my DH's subconscious (sp?). That way, in the fall, he'll think it was his idea to grow our own bacon!

I saw one where they wrapped chicken wire around 4 or 5 of those green metal posts, then they kept adding layers of dirt and straw. My question is when it's done that way, do you harvest the potatoes all at once? And, if so, how do you do it? Do you just pull off the chicken wire and it all...

Thought this might interest a few people. I've never posted a link, so I tried it both ways in case the first doesn't work http://www.plowhearth.com/product.asp?section_id=2008&department=3061&search_type=category&search_value=1111&cm_val=&cm_pos=&cur_index=&cm_type=&pcode=2330

Thank you!! Maybe I'll get brave and try it out later today!

I'd like that Olive Bread recipe, please. I've never made truly homemade bread. I bought the active yeast a week or two ago, and I'm looking for a plain bread recipe that is a known success before I try it.

Somewhere I heard that giving your dog tomato juice to drink would help with the yellow spots in the lawn..... I think it was on one of those morning news shows. If I remember correctly, it was like 8 oz a day. You could probably google it to check.

WOW! That's lookin' good! We're just getting our idea's together, so this gives me a good idea where to start! Keep the pics comin' Beth Zone 7

I love fried Eggplant. Slice it thin, flip it in some salt and flour, then fry til crisp. Drain on paper towel and enjoy while hot.

The pools are the little round ones. They can't be but 4 feet across at best. I planned on putting the watermelon along the edge and letting it drape over. I had planned on putting all the tomatoes into one pool, but I like the idea of a hanging basket, and I have 3 of those already. I...

Hi everyone, We are just doing 2 small raised beds for a garden this year. Actually, they're not even really raised beds, I'm using 2 small baby pools! : ) It's been along time since I gardened, and all I really did was put out a few of tomato plants. So, with all that being said, I'm...

We just started one here too. We planted ours in some potting soil about 2 weeks ago. It's taken off like gang busters.

Can you take some soil samples and have them tested by the health department?

LOL! I have no idea what i mean! Steve (digitS) mentioned creamed peas and potatoes in another thread and I thought that sounded fantastic!

I've never had creamed peas and potatoes. How is it made? Is it just mashed potatoes with some peas tossed in it? Are the peas creamed and then mixed in with some diced boiled potatoes? Is it sweetened? Do you use milk, cream, or water? Help me, Help me! This sounds wonderful, and I want...

Thanks Steve! I'll be sure and buy the green arrow ones!

I've never grown peas before, and would like to give it a shot. I know I'll do sugar snap peas, we love those. But, what type of peas is it that come in the can? I have no idea what kind ot buy for those.
