Come and join Serina for the bi weekly live chat, and check out how our seedlings are doing. There is still snow on the ground here, but in my mind it is spring, and I’m ready to get planting.
Stop! If you have never had a garden before, you don’t need to grow seedlings. Instead consider direct seeding. Today I go over all the details about why I think you should try direct seeding instead of growing seedlings. I know it means you have to wait, and be jealous of all my tomatoes, but…
I have a new soilblocker and it is time for me to get my luffa and cucamelons started. The first seedlings have popped, and it’s making me very happy to see green again. Now if only we could get rid of this snow. Make sure to play the “how many tomatoes” guessing game with me…
It can be tricky to know where to get started, so I’m sharing my 5 top crops for first time gardeners. I feel these are the best beginner veggies because they are fairly simple to grow, and will give you a good basis to learn about gardening from, while still getting the feeling of success.…
My #1 recommended beginner gardener resource is a book! The Vegetable Gardener’s Bible by Edward C. Smith is a great way to learn all the basics and some more advanced ideas as well. His gardening system is a good solid base to build a successful garden wherever you are, and after reading his book many…
One of my biggest struggles in trying to make my farm plan for my first year farming, was to focus in on what I wanted to do and what I wanted to achieve. In this video, Serina explains her thoughts behind how she focused in, and what she wants to achieve. I also break down…
I need to start making some paper pots, and I think everyone else should too! So here is a quick explanation of how to make DIY paper pots out of garbage, a really great option for seed starting.
My seeds are finally here, and I’m so excited! Come and join me while I unbox these live. I can’t wait to get my seeds started tomorrow. It won’t be long till the vegetable garden is going again, and everything is green and beautiful.
This is an overview of everything we have growing in the garden right now. We also show some blooming plants from other areas of the yard.
Ian’s at it again, and trying to build the greenhouse in the middle of winter.

I have one of my many seed orders in, so let’s open it up and talk seeds! I have my favorite peppers in this order, as well as a bunch of other bits and pieces (and tomatoes). I also ordered a mini soil blocker, which I’m excited to check out. So come and hang out…
As a rule, I don’t not complain about Ian being away at work, because the stressful thing is when he isn’t working – like now. What we can, and cannot do, on the farm this year, 100% revolves around money, and right now, the money situation isn’t looking great. Today we are welcoming you into…
Today we are getting some seeds started for our garden. We are starting flats of Stowell’s Evergreen Corn, Celery, Broccoli, Cabbage, and Pak Choy.
Well, that took forever! But we now have a system to be able to create nice and healthy seedlings indoors. Which means that I don’t need to worry about starting my tomatoes and peppers too early. We run into issues at every turn with this system set up, but now I have a space to…
It was beautiful and warm this weekend so we were able to get out into the garden. We planted our Candy onions and some Red Lasoda potatoes.
Well, it’s been a long time since I made a fermentation Friday video, but this kombucha experiment was too hilarious to not film. I am salvaging a moldy mess of my forgotten and neglected Jun culture, that has sat since before our move. Ferments are living things, and this one is as close as it…
Come and join Serina for a live chat, and say goodbye to January and hello to 1 month closer to spring.
It doesn’t snow very much in Kelowna, but we got 6 inches of heavy snow overnight, so I have to get out there and clear the driveway before it freezes into place. It’s a beautiful day, sunny and warm, and nice to have an excuse to be outside. But it doesn’t look like anything else…
You can’t eat the grass? Well, obviously. So what are you going on about. Lol. Learn all about how this grass hater got the name. And enjoy joining me on a little photographic walk down memory lane, as I remember back to some of Ian and Serina’s first gardens. Thanks for tagging us The Citystead…
I’m super excited about the crazy new tomato seeds that I bought from Wild Boar Farms. And their packaging in small generic packets is just too cute for me not to share. So check out all the new varieties of heirloom and unique tomatoes that I will be growing this coming spring, and get some…
I’m having some stressful problems with my vehicle and they are making me have a bad day. Okay, maybe make that week, lol. So, I’m turning to the best mental health cure for me – the garden! I don’t normally have a winter garden like this, and I also normally suffer from the winter blues.…
I’ve been busy seed shopping and trying to get ready for the coming growing season this past week. Everyone always says I’m crazy when I tell how much I spend on seeds, so I’m not going to confess to spending over $1000 this year. But I am hoping to have received my Wild Boar Farm…
Ian is setting up the greenhouse in the snow. We had this greenhouse already set up at our old home, and dismantled it to bring along with us to the new farm. So, to prepare for the coming seed starting that we are going to be doing, Ian is doing some winter gardening, and trying…
We have been noticing interesting prints in the mud around the garden and shed. We set a live trap to see what we could catch!
We got a dump of snow, but the fall garden is still happily surviving through the winter, so I’m outside harvesting salad in the snow, and happy to have winter greens. __________ Subscribe and JOIN OUR JOURNEY! https://www.youtube.com/c/YouCantEatTheGrass?sub_confirmation=1. __________ SOCIAL MEDIA Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/you.cant.eat.the.grass/ Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/you.cant.eat.the.grass/ Google+ | https://plus.google.com/u/0/+YouCantEatTheGrass Website coming soon… __________ SUPPORT…
