    I did some updates last night and for some weird reason the top menu bar for logging in is not showing until you log in. To make it easier I added the login box in the sidebar again. Please let me know if you have any trouble.

    It sounds like your garden is coming a long well! :)   I would love to get some cold frames made this year.  We still have some old windows left over from when we made the greenhouse.

    We have big garden plans this year.  The stores are higher and higher in prices and lower in quality.  Finally my boxes  (cold frames)  are thawed out so I can seriously plan on starting some cool weather […]

    Kim,

    Theresa, I tried a few types of beets last year to.  I think one was yellow and the other was white.  Neither did well, but I can’t blame the varieties!

     

    Gloryfarm, what type of purple beans did you grow?  […]

    Kim,

    I tried a variety of Hubbard squash called Boston Marrow.  It’s a  heritage kind and produced huge, orange squash.  They’re a drier squash, but good tasting.  I also tried growing some quinoa which […]

    I too am planning the garden. I am trying to extend the growing season into early spring and late fall with our cold frames. That will mostly spinach, lettuces, radishes and other cool weather crops.
    Some of my favorite varieties are the Bonny Best tomatoes, Mountain Fresh Tomatoes, Amish paste, San Marzano and hogheart paste. These have worked…[Read more]

      I think animals are one of the best weather predictors you can get! I need to find a place to get my light stand set up soon. I would like to try starting the peppers really early this year and see if that helps. My onion seeds to!

    Hi Kim!

    Our red beets did great last year, but I’m not sure of the variety! We are going to try an orange variety this year with them. They are in the Seeds of Change catalog :)
