Happy Earth Day!
Howdy All -
Just posted some neat pics on my blog to celebrate Earth Day.
Vynnie's Earth Day Blog
Hope it inspires you to compost and mulch and feed the earth (and the bugs).
Enjoy!

September 11, 2010 from 10am to 11:30am
For families who are interested in raising eco-conscious children and living more in balance with nature... Bring your kids to this fun, interactive and informative class on learning more about sustainable living and permaculture. What does it mean…
Need worms and heirloom black oilseed sunflower seeds. Willing to trade garden grown garlic or other heirloom seeds-various kinds.
Thanks for the heads-up post Rachel!
If the yellow taxi is what I'm thinking of, it is awesome! Very crisp and juicy with nice flavor (I confess, I don't have a great palate for fine flavor, which is why I salsa a lot). Julie at Baker just raved abo…
Just a reminder - plan to take lots of notes (and pics if you'd like)! We'll have fun learning how to make some garden gold! Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Looks like loads of fun! Few design questions:
- What rooms/windows are adjacent to the space?
- In your west neighbors yard, NEC, is that a tree and will it (hopefully) grow a large canopy?
- do you have HOA restrictions on structure visibility? (…
Howdy All -
I have compost starter/stimulator! I will feature it at my compost workshop this saturday 08/28 and give some away. If you can attend, there are goodies to be had!
My second wave of fall crops are on the move!
I am in transition as most of us are but i am still getting Japanese eggplant and am gathering the few bunches of yellow pear tomatoes. Mostly I am picking herbs to dry and amending my soil. My recent plantings of beans and tomatoes are looking good…
Started my first wave of fall seeds at the beginning of the month (bit late but...). Tomato, cucumber, beet, carrot, chard, choi - oh boy! Will now do a batch every two weeks.

- If the tomatillos are planted right next to each other they should have no problems with pollination on their own. If they are farther apart, I'd try picking a flower from one plant and using it to pollinate some on another plant. Glad to hear everything is going well!

Dixon Oates said… - One suggestion: If someone has a drip system / automatic sprinkler system, the could extend a section of PVC above ground(maybe afixed to a post), then have it turn two 90's so that a small 360 degree shrub head is upside down over the top of the compost pile. If done correctly, this could eliminate the need to manually sprinkle the compost pile (which could be helpful...especially if you go on a long vacation)

TCarmichael said… - Vynnnie, noticed on your blog you said summer is a great time to plant native trees. Can I plant in August, even without the monsoon (which seems to be nonexistent this year)?

Hi Brittany,
Now is sure the time to be making Kombucha since it's been gone off the shelves for a few months now. I so miss it! I hope and pray that the issues get resolved and it comes back.
