Why we love raised beds...




We love raised beds. You can amend the soil (compost, compost, compost) and plant such a beautiful variety of plants without a lot of weeding. In this bed, you can find sage, chives, a volunteer potato plant, broccoli, oregano, cabbage, purple basil, and even a few onions from last year. This is one of the oldest and most productive beds that we have AND it's near the back door :)

Despise not the day of small beginnings...




Despise not the day of small beginnings (Zech 4:10)

This is a tray of some of our latest seedlings started. From left to right there is artichoke, kale, and onion (which were growing toward the light, so that's why they appear to be lying down).
