This week I started the Master Gardeners Certified Home Horticulture program through and I’m very excited!

I decided not to do a fall garden this year so I’ll be spending my “gardening time” on this course until it wraps up around mid-December, just in time for the 2024 garden season. Excited to expand and learn more!

I’m currently mentally planning out my goals and ideas for the 2024 spring garden and what I want to do differently, get rid of or bring in. The dye garden will be a main focus for me in the new year, as well as a cut flower garden since they bring me the most joy.

*gasp* A new post up on the garden blog! I'm sharing what is working well right now in the garden and what isn't doing too great.

The summer is in full swing and July has been warm, but not horrible in my opinion. The temps have been in the high 90’s, just grazing triple digits (except for this weekend) but since I& #821…

I’m so happy to see fruit setting in this dwarf Clown Tomato! I was given two seeds by so I only germinated one seed and crossed my fingers it would germinate. It’s doing beautifully!

The plan is to save seed from all the tomatoes this year, I have about two plants of each variety so I can mix the genetics up a tad and select from the best plants.

Also, my my yarrow is getting ready to bloom and Sunshine is excited about it too lol!

The last of the dwarf tomatoes are in! Thanks , they all germinated for me and look great so far!

I’ve been pulling out bolting greens but this Italienischer is still growing good!

The garden is doing great so far this season! More planting this weekend and then it’s done… until we add several honey berries this summer.

Tomatoes getting some sun this morning, it’s time to harden them off so I can plant some at the end of the month. The rest will be up for sale!

I still have a small tray of dwarf heirloom varieties that will all be headed to the garden as well, those won’t be up for sale since I plan to grow them for seed.

A little early May garden update on the blog!

I meant to do a garden update much sooner but life has a way of changing that sometimes. Most of the garden is in, woot! I typically don’t plant until the end of May but I’ve been keepi…
