The slugs are back! The slugs are back!

Did you know that slugs and snails are pollinators too?! While they may not be as fast as hummingbirds or as efficient as bees, they still manage to spread pollen in their own special, but slimy, way.

I know they aren’t a favorite guest of many gardeners, but they play an important ecological role. It turns out it’s not just my lettuce they are after. They also work to break down leaf mold and other decaying matter in our gardens. Their trails and tunnels turn over soil. And they are protein packed morsels for birds, frogs, and other predators.

I have a soft spot for these squishy friends, and I am (somewhat absurdly) excited every year when National Slugs Return from Capistrano Day rolls around. I don’t always love what they do, but I’ll keep working to live in balance with them, because they are a part of my garden too. For tips on how to keep slug and snail populations in check in your garden check out the link below.

If this spring is any indicator, it looks like this summer is shaping up to be a hot one. Regions across the US have seen record breaking high temperatures this spring and many parts of the West have seen considerably lower amounts of rain and snowfall than normal. This has me thinking about what I can plant to keep my garden producing through the summer heat.

Here’s the good news. There are crops you can grow that are better at withstanding drought and high summer temperatures, so you’ll be ready, come rain or shine.

Fun fact: Marilyn Monroe was the first official Artichoke Queen in 1948. She wasn’t a star yet, she wasn’t even actually Marilyn, but when Norma Jean was visiting the tiny town of Castroville for the purpose of modeling for a jewelry store, she was picked to represent the up-and-coming crop that...
