Pick up Mel’s Mix on Tuesday, May 30

Wow! Spring has been skipped once again this year. It went from freezing temperatures to sweltering, seemingly over night. It did this last year and we had record high temperatures in June!

Grrr… shopping cart isn’t working

I am NOT a programmer, so my uneducated efforts at adding a shopping cart is not working out so well. So, if you are interested in ordering Mel’s Mix at the prepaid discount ($15.99 instead of $17.99 per bag) send me an email and I will send you an invoice via email. Each bag is [...]

Is spring finally here?

Wow! Time does fly! Here it is the middle of April and maybe, just maybe, Spring is finally here to stay. My rhubarb is up and just today I saw little sprouts of asparagus poking up through the soil. I really didn’t think my asparagus survived the winter, so I am thrilled! I just started [...]

Great class in Ashland, Ohio!

Presented The 10-Basics of Square Foot Gardening for Samaritan Hospital’s community education program last night in Ashland, Ohio. What a great group of people! It sounds like several people are ready to get started! I am too, just another week or so and we can plant peas and potatoes. I especially like the crispy-sweet taste [...]

Happy New Year! And we’re into another gardening season!

Here in Ohio, we enjoyed a brief respite from the cold with temperatures reaching 60 degrees on Friday only to plummet once again below freezing today. I was taking a look at my calendar this morning and I have my [...]

Mother Earth News Fair

Tomorrow is the Mother Earth News Fair at Seven Springs Resort in PA. I have a Square Foot Gardening booth. Getting here was a day from hell. Hope that means our event is pre-disastered and the rest of the weekend will be amazing and profitable! It certainly looks like it is going to be a fantastic event.
