GROWING VEGGIES.

                START READING THE OLDEST BLOG IF YOU ARE NEW AT GARDENING, LOTS OF IMPORTANT INFO STARTING THERE.

Time to start thinking about this year’s garden!

2/24/2019

 
Its time. You have had enough time off. Did you have enough food this winter from last year’s efforts?
Picture
Dinner last August- everything but the pepper and cheese is from my garden. Eat well. Eat free. Eat healthy. Nobody’s poopie fingers ever touches your food- ‘cept yours!
Picture
Are you looking forward to inventing new meals that come solely from your own toil? I am too. Copy PF Chang’s lettuce wrap with tougher yet tastier cabbage leaves wrapping your very own stir fry assemblage! Think outside the box, then plan accordingly when planting.
Picture
How bout this for lunch or dinner? Yep- everything in this bowl is the result of healthy soil, some toil, sun/food/native wild insects pollinating my garden plants. Teamwork!
Picture
Do you miss spending time up in your garden? I do/don’t. ‘Slotta work! But what you get outta that work is priceless (and not just food!).
Picture
I had so many fresh, juicy, never sprayed, never washed, never touched by humans, tasty tomatoes I had to force them upon friends- then strangers. If I could just have ONE right now- what I would give for just one bite!
Picture
I grew thousands of dollars worth of incredibly good food last year, and learned a ton from some of my successes/failures
Picture
These rows looked far enough apart when I planted them but two months later I couldn’t walk between them- couldn’t really even see them. Notice the plant food sprinkled in the trench with the plants- makes a HUGE difference in output. Like having gasoline in your car’s gas tank.

​Buck the trend, get up off the couch, and garden for food! Could be the beginning of the rest of your long, long, long life!
Picture
This article caught my eye. Spain is first. Surely USA must be second- nope. Tenth? Nope. Twentieth? Nooooo. Thirtieth???? Nope
