I love Carrots Love Tomatoes, all about companion planting.

some of us are familiar with Etsy.com but did you know you can buy seeds and in some cases plants? I have my eyes on some little finger carrot seeds and sugar baby watermelon.

Potatoes and peas this week, glad I waited after freezing temps this week.

I have a big pile in the middle of my side yard. It contributes to my goal of not having so much grass to mow. Its bigger than it looks, this is just a part of it, it was a pickup load.

I had heard about it but this year the rain got the best of me and my garden. I usually do give my extras to neighbors anyway, they dont have a lot but they do have a finishing mower so its kind of like a trade for use of it. I plant tomotoes even though I dont like them and give them away.

My Sadie. She is currently recuperating from a back injury. Last week at this time she couldnt use her back legs. Shes getting better slowly. I found both of them in my bed one morning

I was wanting to get some started too. My dad has a large tree in his yard so I can get them from there. He is planning on having it cut down, its old and most definitely hollow, if it goes it will be on my grams house. But there are several smaller ones near by, maybe 10 - 15 years old.

I have several sunflower seed heads, the only thing that did well this year. How to I save them? I want to keep them to give to the chickens this winter as a whole head.

I just remembered this one, not like it sits in my side yard and I see it every day or anything. This wheel barrow sat for free outside a business. its beat up, cant use it but makes an excellent decoration. It looks real pretty in the summer with a big fern inside. And I have no idea what...

I love decorating with the "weeds" I find this time of year. Makes a beautiful decoration and costs me nothing. The large pumpkin and the green one I grew. The green one was my Big Max that the dog dug out (gggrrrr). The hollow logs my son brought home when cutting up logs. theres a...

You have to get the Baker Creek seed catalog, its like the old Sears wish book! www.rareseeds.com :weee

it would make an excellent screen its just that it is impossible to control. There is a large patch of it down the road from here and all they can do it cut it down a couple times a year because it blocks the view around a tight corner on the road.

how tall is it? Looks like an invasive plant we have around here, gets very tall and hard to get rid of. http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/forestry/invasivetutorial/japanese_knotweed.htm

im jealous for everything you have put up. I see you have frozen corn on the cob. Ive been wanting to try this for a long time but I dont know anyone who has. What do you have to do before you freeze it and do you have to thaw it before you cook it when you take it out?

my mom always used it for pie and it was great. They are just a real pain to peel. Have a very sharp knife and watch your fingers.

When pulling weeds and cutting off Trumpet vine ( :somad ) I discovered my dog found a nice cool place to lay in the flower bed and dug out my Big Max pumpkin vine, it already has a pumpkin growing on it (stem is the size of my wrist) this was going to be a huge one. It was wilted but at first...

awesome, now your going to have me looking for stuff like that can use. I love the bird bath.

maybe you can lend some insight to this problem. He did have to spread some fresh because he didnt get enough over the winter. And he had a problem with some soybeans not comming up so well. He thought it was a problem with the weed killer that was supposed to be compatible. Do you think the...

ammonia nitrate is the whole reason my dad fertilizes all his fields with chicken manure. Chicken manure is an excellent source and much cheaper than buying the fertilizer, which became more expensive and harder to get after Oklahoma City. He starts getting it in the fall and lets it sit on...

those rocks in front of my house was only 1/3 of it, this summer i took them around the side of the house as well. My son gets them from the fields too. Its so funny, he's in the tractor and see's a large rock and immediately thinks mom will want that one. Unfortunately the door didnt make it...
