The kale wants to go to seed, but I want to eat it. So I compromise and eat the kale flower buds, which are actually really delicious. I am cooking them with a really simple recipe, that even horrible chefs like me can pull off, by drowning them in oil, salt and pepper, and baking…
The radishes and mustard greens that I planted in the greenhouse are starting to really grow, and that means that it is time to do some thinning so I can have the best harvest possible. Come along with me as I explain how to thin direct seeded crops and the reasons that you want to…
The vegetables are really starting to grow in the greenhouse. The seedling that I started in the soil blocks less than a month ago are ready to be planted out.

Ian gets to work, and builds 20 wooden seedling trays, out of some scrap wood we had around the house. They are fairly simple to build, and a great plastic free way to use soil blocks for starting your seeds for your vegetable garden. You need: 1 – 9 1/2 x 20 1/4 inch thin…
I’m direct seeding most of the greenhouse with spring crops. Things have warmed up enough overnight, that the soil has started to heat up in the greenhouse, and it is time to test if we can get an entire spring crop out before we plant our tomatoes and eggplants. So come along and laugh at…
I love Justin Rhodes permaculture chickens gardening technique, but I don’t have any chickens. So instead, I’m talking about stacking function and using your resources to the best of your abilities, and highlighting the differences and similarities between our vegetable gardens. I’m excited for the summer garden, and for checking out The Great American Farm…
Now that the greenhouse is all cleaned up, it is time to start putting it to good use. I am experimenting with the soil blocker and doing my first planting of 2018. The cold hardy brassicas need a bit of a head start before getting planted into the ground, so I am hoping that the…

There is nothing else to harvest at the house yet, so I am making an infused oil with one of the few things that I have – violet leaves. They are supposed to have anti inflammatory properties that will make a perfect “hard work” salve down the line. So I am picking them and packing…
We aren’t just creating a garden when growing a food forest, rather we are creating an ecosystem. If we design it correctly we can have this system function to support us, while also supporting itself. This is sustianable food production.

I tried to make my first milk soap, and everything that could possibly go wrong, does. My milk and lye mixture separates. I get DOS (dreaded orange spots). And I even start to suspect I have lye pockets in some of my earlier soaps! Even though these are all some pretty big failures, I am…
I haven’t had any mold in my main kombucha brew, knock on wood, but I have been able to share out my culture to family and friends who want to start brewing kombucha, and for that reason I am glad I have a scoby hotel. Having a second culture alive and happy in case something…

Ian and Serina battle it out to determine which are better – cheap seeds or expensive seeds. Considering 3 different points of quantity, quality, and variety, they discuss which is actually the better deal. And sometimes cost isn’t as simple to determine as you would expect. So who do you think wins this fight? And…
