The Victory Garden lives another day
In the midst of a summer yard clean-up and forest fire watches, our Victory Garden has slowly begun to provide us with summer squash and peppers. The orchard has provided cherries and early apples so far (read about how to keep the birds from eating your fruit). We wondered if the produce was in jeopardy…
Purslane: An omega-3 garden surprise
The garden has had a slow start this summer, but we have had an abundant and welcome collection of volunteer purslane.

Our family orchard has three trees that are already bearing fruit. I look forward to the fruit but I do not look forward to fighting the birds for the fruit. I don’t mind sharing but birds have a way of clearing a tree. We have gone to great trouble to net our trees. but fussing…

Life After Depression
There really is life after depression. I am so excited by that point, in fact, that I neglect this blog and find fun/quirky projects to do with my family.
