lessons from our family garden

    It took me three years to start an asparagus bed, one year of putting up with the Man grumbling about the location of the asparagus bed, and two hours to dig it all up and move it to a new location. Oh my, my arms hurt today! Instead of having a single row of asparagus up the property line, I now have a rectangular bed just outside the fenced vegetable garden when my two raspberry bare root plants gave up…

  • Well, It Sounded Like a Good Idea

    October 25, 2011 /

    Hi. I’m back. So if you’ve been following my journey through Postpartum Depression, either through my random texts or emails to you or through occasional Twitter posts, you know that it’s an ongoing process. I don’t know when PPD is technically over and the woman is just left dealing with crazy. However, over the past month I felt I’d arrived and last week decided to go off medication. I was already on a fairly low dose, so I figured tapering…

  • Farmer’s Market in the Fall

    October 14, 2011 /

    The Farmer’s Market is at its pinnacle of glory in the weeks leading up to Halloween. I took the boys and camera to get our annual pumpkin pictures and to pick up some fig trees and blueberry bushes. It was a forgetful afternoon. Not only did I forget the memory card for the camera, but I also forgot the names of the figs and blueberries I purchased. I know I didn’t get Turkey figs – I opted for the sweeter,…

  • Asparagus in October

    October 13, 2011 /

    In March of 2010, I planted Purple Passion Asparagus up one of our property lines. These were two-year roots, and as recommended, we didn’t harvest that spring. This spring, once again we didn’t harvest but let the spears branch out for a month or so before cutting them down. Soon after, new spears popped up in their place. I decided to harvest these, and they were delicious. Another wave came to replace those, which I allowed to grow for another…
