It’s a common experience for folks trying to grow vegetables without pesticides. You plant squash in the first stretch of warm weather and watch it grow into a beautiful plant.

Jordan Tony
May 23, 2023
By now the benefits of incorporating native plants in your landscaping and vegetable garden are very well documented. Native plants require fewer inputs and less upkeep because they’re adapted to your local environment, they provide habitat for native insects and birds, and in some cases, they are a...

Misty Newcomb

It’s easy to get caught up in thinking that you must have a lot of space to make gardening worthwhile. But even with a small amount of space, you can actually produce quite a bit of produce by using the square-foot garden method. If you aren’t familiar with the concept of a square-foot garden, it’s...

Gardening in Cooler Weather
Misty Newcomb
May 10, 2023
Once the days grow longer and we start seeing little buds on trees and daffodils popping up around the periphery of the yard, it’s easy to want to get some plants in the dirt. And though we can’t grow a lot of the vegetables that require the mid-summer heat to thrive, there is actually a lot that we...

Spring Care for Big Bulbs of Garlic
Misty Newcomb
Apr 26, 2023
Garlic is one of the slow movers of the garden world. It’s typically planted in the fall and quietly builds a solid root structure underneath the ground all winter. Little green garlic stems popping up over the top of the soil are typically one of the first signs that spring will be here soon, but...

How to Test your Garden's Soil
Jordan Tony
Apr 24, 2023
Second only to sunlight and water, the composition of a garden’s soil can make or break a vegetable garden. The primary aspects of your soil to be on the lookout for are the available nutrient levels, the pH, and the ratio of sand, silt, and clay. If you’re gardening in a city or an area potentially...

How to Plan a Sustenance Garden
Jordan Tony
Mar 27, 2023
For the past seven years, my wife Silvan and I have been working towards producing as much of our own food as possible. Each fall, we begin a “Living off the Land” challenge where we see how long we can comfortably and healthily go, eating only food that we grew in our gardens or foraged and hunted...

How to Make Garden Fertilizer Out of Bones
Silvan Goddin
Mar 20, 2023
After a successful hunt in my household, we like to challenge ourselves to use as much of the animal as possible. Not only is this a great way to honor the animal that is providing us with sustenance, it’s also very satisfying to learn about all of the useful materials that can be derived from game...

The Importance of Crop Rotation
Jordan Tony
Mar 15, 2023

Seed Sourcing 101
Jordan Tony
Feb 27, 2023
Many gardeners have a springtime tradition of taking a trip to the garden center and coming home with a car or truck full of little veggie seedlings. I also enjoy perusing the aisles at my local big box garden center, but there are some downsides to sourcing your plants this way. The corporate...
