A surprise harvest

February 2, 2020 ~ M Ress ~ 1 Comment

So it's really nice when you go to clear a bed that has a bunch of stuff in it thats a little messy and you find that messy does not mean inedible. Like yes that's 50% oxalis but I see you fat little kohlrabi! Also the bok choy behind the gross one in front- edible! … Continue reading A surprise harvest

Wind, rain, fog; the effects of wild weather can still be felt after.

January 6, 2020January 7, 2020 ~ M Ress ~ 1 Comment

So after a good proper storming we're in a dry period, and I can tally the damage. The verdict? Not great!

I got a few interesting herbs at work a few days ago, but due to the heat wave I had to wait to plant them. They just sat on my work table which is slightly under the overhang of the back of the house so they didn't get scorched. You will note the second tarragon. … Continue reading Mid-June planting and sowing
