3-6pm. I think this has been advertized on FB (i don't do FB). I will be there with beans to give away plus other things. I will gladly give away as much as i possibly can. Please don't be shy to ask. I also hope to bring most of my collection of seeds from past years and such so if i don't...

currently the line runs from eastern Ohio down to Texas but it is an amazingly nasty looking storm i've never seen similar. looks to be heading mostly east. keep a watch out if you are in the path. many of the storms are marked as Tornado Warning or Severe Thunderstorms, but basically i've...

Seed swaps are starting to pop up on my radar and it is always good to hear about them even if i can't be there. :)

It is back on this coming year in a new location (not too far from the previous one). Saturday, February 24, 2024 11 am - 4 pm https://www.smallhousefarm.com/seedswap/ Hope to see you there! :) I am planning on attending as a seed vendor, tried to talk Mom into going but she won't...

it was my fault. i didn't know it had gotten inside my gardening shoe. at least i didn't know it until i moved and pinched it and then it expressed it's anger at being pinched by stinging the top of my foot. i've been stung enough to know that feeling for what it was so i got my shoe out of...

my two favorites are using the stirrup hoe (or action hoe or what i otherwise call a scraper) and when doing closer work between plants i use either a small trowel or a large knife. the main reasons for liking both of these tools and techniques is that they do not have to stir much of the...

wandering around and looking at the flowers on this page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calochortus wow are some of them gorgeous and also some so very unique. the thing is that many of them will not grow in a midwest garden. at one time i did have some mariposa lilies but they did not last...

aside from the plentiful rains in California and snow in the Rockies this has been a pretty non-eventful early winter few weeks. today i've even seen a shadow perhaps for the first time in a week. bits of blue sky! amazing flying UFO sighting perhaps today but i have to be sure not to be...

it has been a fun year of conversing about gardens and a lot of other things and i'm glad we can all hang out and mostly get along. sometimes we don't agree but i'm ok with that as i do learn things from talking about things i don't know about and i do read along and try to understand some...

in disguise. blending in very well with the eaves of the house the other day. probably a male (very skinny).

it has been growing here for years in good soil, poor soil, soggy spots, drier spots, etc. so why hasn't it taken over the deserts? perhaps that it is edible? too edible?

this shows one version of doing this reasonably well and between the video, description and the comments i think i might be able to do it without seeing closeup pictures. still i'd like to see closeup pictures eventually. i like magnified pictures. :) as a bonus track i'll put this here...

I hope you all have a great day and can enjoy yourselves! :) :hugs
