Fall Garden Planting
For the last few weeks, you’ve been (hopefully) enjoying some wonderful harvests from your summer vegetable, flower and herb gardens. You’ve been watching your tomatoes grow to the perfect size and the perfect shade of red or yellow, you’re about to have more cucumbers than even the most prolific pickle fanatic could shake a stick […]
Thank you for thinking of us
Nobody knew what to expect at the start of March this year. Let’s face it, we still don’t know what’s really around the corner. In the last 16 weeks or so, we have seen everyone, in every industry, make some sort of adjustment to help get through the challenges we have and will continue to […]
Late to the party- our favorite “late” bloomers
In most cases, mid July isn’t considered late summer- technically it’s still the first month, but a gardener’s calendar and mind can look at time a little differently. Even though there’s a full two months until the first official day of Autumn, we’re now in what can be considered the throes of summer, and you […]
From (A)pples to (Z)ucchini
Some of you may be lucky enough to be harvesting some crops from your home gardens by now. Namely, summer squash like straightneck yellow squash & zucchini. Zucchini & yellow squash have a shorter growing season than a lot of other crops, so even with the Mother’s Day Freeze of 2020, if you were careful, […]
Cedar Apple Rust- what is it, how to treat it

Spores overwinter as a reddish-brown gall on young twigs […]

Don’t forget your medicine
Most of us know by now how beneficial gardening, plants and growing your own food can be. First and foremost are the improvements to your mental and physical health. Improving environmental conditions, benefits to the economy (local and at large,) and strengthening educational efforts from school age and beyond, are a few more in a […]
Squash (the) Vine Borer
Mary, Mary, quite contrary, how does your garden grow? With silver bells, and cabbage worms, and squash vine borers. No, that’s not how the old nursery rhyme goes, but it’s how some of our gardens are. It’s no wonder that while we are excited to reap the benefits of growing food at home, and we […]
