A NEW project! Can you guess what style of garden we’re experimenting with?

We're unable to join our friends at Franconia Sculpture Park Farmers Market today, but you can attend from 10-2.

We’re trying a NEW seed company, new to us that is. Seed Therapy is an American grown and veteran owned company based in Texas.
Some of our seeds we’ll start with a winter sowing method, others will be directly sewn in a wk or two, depending on the weather. Some will go in the ground around Memorial Day. And lastly, some will go into storage as they are repeats of what we’ve already got.
We are expanding the garden by adding another garlic row, doubling the medicinal herb section and adding another 12’ x 20’ (roughly) to the vegetable garden. We’re hoping to have dried herb seasoning blends and teas available this summer, including the excellent popcorn seasoning we introduced last year featuring garlic scapes.
Please follow along and wish us well in our efforts! May our days be long and prosperous working this beautiful land that we love! Good luck gardeners!

Creamy mushroom soup for a cozy evening at home. I think I’ll make a fire and have a spot of tea too.

Mushroom lovers, check this out.
I’m making this recipe with a few changes. I’m using Beef bone broth in place of vegetable stock and added a bag of thyme (fresh), 2 Tbls of Better than Broth and a few shakes of coconut amino acids. I’ll post a pic when it’s done.

FINALLY…it’s taken much longer to get to this than I’d planned, but it’s here now.
GARLIC infused Honey!

This is experiment # 1. It will sit for roughly 2 wks, being turned every day. This should result in more liquid honey and sweetened garlic. I’ll do a post of the results.

These are all screenshots of things I’d like to try in or around our garden.

Have you implemented any in your garden? If so, what and what advice would you give? Please let me know in the comments.

It’s definitely been a bit since we’ve posted anything. You may even be like, “what’s Garden Grubbs”, when it pops up in your feed. Well, I can only say that winter is a time of rest, both for the soil and the gardeners. Now, as we approach the end of winter and green bits and bobs poke their way through the top soil we begin again.

In the coming weeks we will be touching up our garden maps, going through our seed stock and ordering as needed, then starting our winter sowing. We’ve got a lot of irons in the fire around here, so jump back on board and follow along.
