  1. I think I need to put in another raised bed this year. Guess I'm borrowing my father's car to haul wood again! 10:09 AM May 11th from HootSuite
  2. Cool and rainy today. Good for the garden, bad for my plans. Oh well. 7:23 AM May 4th from HootSuite
  3. Didn't find many morels at all yesterday, but did come home with a basket full of ramps. Pickle them? Jelly? Decisions decisions. 2:46 PM May 3rd from HootSuite
  4. Steeping a scant quart jar of violets for jelly. Might go raid my parents yard for violets tomorrow. Need to pick dandelion blossoms too. 2:44 PM May 3rd from HootSuite

  8. SOOOO many volunteer tomato seedlings and brassica seedlings in the pea bed. Oof. I feel a little guilty about their impending doom. 1:35 PM Apr 22nd from HootSuite
  9. Thinking of building a few narrow salad tables, rather than taking up space in the raised beds with mesclun. Hmm... 8:45 AM Apr 22nd from HootSuite
  10. The robins are back, once again sizing up the corner of the porch as nesting real estate. Here's to hoping they're as friendly as last year! 7:53 AM Apr 22nd from HootSuite

  16. upon checking out last years tomato bed, I found LOTS of volunteer 'maters, but also baby brassicas?! There weren't any there last year! 3:19 PM Apr 13th from HootSuite

  18. nothing like a cool overcast evening to play around in the dirt and 40 gallons of rabbit poo. also planted out some more shallots. 3:02 PM Apr 13th from HootSuite
  19. @compostman The hardest part (for me) is remembering to not harvest the first year, and only light harvest the second. Willpower! 9:30 AM Apr 13th from HootSuite in reply to compostman
  20. @compostman Yerp- they do like themselves some compost. I must say, rhubarb is my 'set it and forget it' crop. What a yummy crop it is too. 9:17 AM Apr 13th from HootSuite in reply to compostman
