Computers have always fascinated me.

The location of the garden must be the original breeding ground for turtles. We discovered early on that they show up every year in May and June.

My tomatoes are all planted and the straw mulch in place. The marigolds are happily along side. Basil seeds are not yet sprouted.

Ever wondered what is meant by open pollinated seeds and hybrid seeds?

I started the tomatoes indoors under lights. Seeds went into 4” pots of growing medium.

Planting an annual garden is a familiar ritual that also presents evolving challenges. Each season begins with decisions that shape the harvest and the gardening experience.

I have had a garden for many years, even when we lived in the city. After we moved here, I was able to raise the bar on gardening. Having space on the property helped.
