Friday, June 25, 2010. Thorny Guy has broken my camera! He has a knack for breaking everything he tried to use. Recently he broke another one of my hand shovels (not a pink one). Usually he is good about not touching my tools, in fact he knows any tool that is pink means he can not use it. He goes through about three shovels a year! Saturday, June 19, 2010. Sunday, June 13, 2010. Isn't it early for coneflowers? Saturday, June 12, 2010. Friday, June 11, 2010. The woodland garden is filling in nicely. ...

Sunday, February 28, 2010. Saturday, February 06, 2010. Winter Sowing Take 2. Last year, I tried Winter Sowing. For the first time, my results were spotty to say the least. I think I have identified several reasons for this and am trying winter sowing again this year. Here are the things I am changing:. 1) Quality of soil - last year I bought the cheapest soil, which ended up having tons of weed seeds I could not tell the real plants from the weeds. 4) Water - This year bottom water. 10) Poppy Double Oase.

Friday, August 20, 2010. Love these marigolds from the UMore Garden display. They look like orange pompoms dotting the annual beds. I need to find seed for these and grow them next year. Wonder if they come in other colors. Sunday, August 08, 2010. Wordless Wednesday: Forgotten Pantry. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Subscribe in a reader. Dakota Co Tree Sale.

Saturday, August 20, 2011. Rudbeckia and coneflowers are in full bloom in the chicken garden. These flowers seem to last all summer. The monarchs and swallowtails also have been enjoying them. There seems to be more butterflies this year. Thursday, August 11, 2011. This was our big gardening project this spring. The area had several big pieces of flagstone with rock in between. The grade was also about a foot off and made the last step off the deck dangerous for Inch Worm. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Friday, April 30, 2010. This is a spring photo from last year. I have some more bulbs and more plants in front since then. The river of daffodil bulbs have also filled in nicely as you can see in the next two pictures from 2010. Thursday, April 29, 2010. Wednesday, April 28, 2010. Monday, April 26, 2010.

The Columbine was the last to ge...

Sunday, September 12, 2010. We have been busy canning lots of pickles, raspberry jelly, and pizza sauce. Today I tried canning salsa for the first time. I have not found a recipe that I liked yet, but came across some from the Ball recipe website. That I want to try. The bruschetta and Sweet Yellow Tomato Chutney look delicious. Also found this website. That have nice recipes. I am also super excited about my new jars. They are wide mouth pints, perfect for dipping chips into. Saturday, September 11, 2010.

Tuesday, March 23, 2010. Wednesday, March 17, 2010. First flowers of 2010! The crocuses are up and blooming. Looks like it will be an early spring. Last year these were blooming April 8,. Is spring really three weeks ahead of time? We have daffodils and tulips already poking through the ground. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Subscribe in a reader. Dakota Co Tree Sale.

Monday, November 29, 2010. Saturday, November 20, 2010. Recently we found a dead deer on our property. Not quite sure how it was killed although there are several coyotes in the area. The birds have been enjoying a feast. There have been hundreds of crows and even some vultures partaking. This was the best blurry shot of one. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Subscribe in a reader.

Wednesday, March 23, 2011. It is snowing AGAIN! We already have four inches on the ground. The Juncos and chickadees have been feeding at the bird feeders nonstop since it started snowing. Tuesday, March 22, 2011. The ground is barely frozen and the gophers are already ripping up my garden. I am sure they are enjoying destroying all the roots and bulbs I planted there. What is a gardener to do? Any tips out there for battling gophers or moles? Monday, March 21, 2011. Sunday, March 20, 2011. All the snow ...
