If you don’t like the weather in Ohio – just wait 5 minutes!
That’s how the saying goes in Ohio (and in a lot of places around the country) but this year’s weather has been exceptionally crazy! There was a lot […]

You can plant about anything now! Seeds will do well because they’ll germinate fast in the heat. I would say you can plant anything except maybe potatoes – just check your last frost date and compare that to the harvest time on the plants and you’ll be good to go! I just planted some dill, cilantro, and lettuce and will be going thru my seed packets to see what else I have room for

This is my first time with the weekly veggie boxes. I’ve basically been building up my skills to get to this point over the last few years. The first year was a bust and huge learning curve and steadily improved until last year I had so much extra produce I couldn’t give it away fast enough!

Thanks for stopping by my blog! And glad you like the format of practical philosophy – I really don’t know any other way to collect my thoughts lol but I appreciate the input! Your home sounds so magical – the stone cottage in the woods – I’m looking forward to seeing how everything turns out on your garden journey this year. Thanks for stopping by – love hearing about other gardening challenges & unique approaches

That’s awesome! When did you start your seeds & how are they doing? I love growing herbs because they’re so much more flavorful when grown by your own hand. Another thing you could do is grow stuff in pots – you can grow a mixed pot of a tomato plant with herbs, lettuce and onions in that same pot. Maybe my idea is a little packed lol, but the options are endless in containers! Thanks for stopping by the site – I really appreciate it! Let me know if you have any questions or anything else I could do to provide some gardening value for you!
