Totally, you can enter a single specimen but most of the ppl here enter bouquets to really showcase their finest all together. Lots of larkspur and sunflowers here.

OK so our county fair start up Mid-June and run thru mid-August. Unfortunately in this rotation of county fairs, the counties closest to me are always first... I want to know what I am supposed to do in Northern MN to have ripe tomatoes ready to enter in the fair by June 30th??? Usually we...

The rosemary plant I got has more buleish colored leaves and the stems are not woody at all, the entire plant has soft stems. Its almost the color of sagebrush its so blue. but it's from the best nuresry in the area and labeled clearly as culinary rosemary, the tag even has recipes on the...

I just planted a rosemary last week but I dont like the flavor... are there different varieties?

SO glad you're back Hoody!

Nothing grows over our tank either. I always just write it off as the soil is too thin there to retain enough moisture. The drain field now, that is an entirely different story!

... I am loathe to put anything besides rain and air on my garden... Oh and some epsom salts. So, my little wheelbarrow salad bed is about to really kick into production, and I don't want a repeat of the total loss we had last year to the dang white butterflies of death. I'm thinking of...

The recipe is on my blog. www.thehenway.com Its recent so you wont have to go too far back!

I like the idea of CAS, and there are a few in our area, but they all want so much for a share... and I know its less than I spend on produce if I buy it at the store, but I'm not spending that amount ALL at ONCE which makes a huge difference. The good old standby's in each basket (cukes...

it KILLS my DH that I just kind of make rows where it feels good. Nothing is straight or perfectly spaced... I like it that way because things are where they feel good to me. I used the rake and walked backwards and kind of hoped I was going mostly straight and my rows are just fine.

Thanks :) I had already been mowing and driving tractor around for a few hours so I was lazy and didnt water in the seeds..... but its rainy now so *whew*! My goal is to have enough green beans this year for pickling! I found a pickling recipe that I've been using on asparagus this spring...

My stepdad pounded t-posts into the ground on one edge of his garden at an angle, then attached chicken wire and trained the cukes to climb that. The fruits grew thru the wire and hung nicely in picking reach from the bottom and there were no vines in the garden or yard to worry about!

I started hardening off my tomato seedlings Friday, and spent all weekend taking them in and out. Last night was their first night outside and they looked GREAT this morning! If its not raining tonight I'll plant them when I get home. Yesterday I put in: Alaska Peas - 3 12' rows Green...

It appears to be a Red Cascade Weeping Peach http://galechesterwhittington2.blogspot.com/2009/08/my-photos-to-appear-on-flower-labels.html

These are the flowers Someone from the Extension office suggested Green Ash but the leaves were not familiar when I looked up green ash trees. There is another tree like this in town here, right by my office and if it gets leaves I will take a pitcure. Right now most of the trees are not...

It has no leaves. It is covered in clumps of dried up flowers. Oaks do not grow within 5 miles of our house due to soil acidity issues.

1. What state/province/country are you in and what is your climate like? The Great White North (aka MN) because half the year its covered in snow and the other half its covered in Norwegians. 2. How many people are in your family? Marital status? 4 in my house. Hundreds in my family...

Its not a cottonwood, we have hundreds of those on our place and they're not even close. We have lots of willow too. The flower deals are the dried brown clumpy things if that helps.

This tree is in our pasture. It is my favorite tree, as well as DH's. He likes it so much that he had someone from the extension office come identify it once years ago. They told him it was a river elm. I have looked up river elms and they look nothing like this tree. It died last spring...
