Welcome to my web home and gardens. The veggie garden looks naked with the potatoes,peas and cabbage gone, but they will soon be replaced by a myriad of beans. The squash will explode with growth, too, so things will look very different in a few weeks!

 

In these pages I have assembled some of my favorite blogs from the last few years, with links to related articles at Mother Earth News or GrowVeg.com. I slip in new musings every chance I get, along with photos that have captured special moments in my garden. Here's what's new:

 

Clearing Cloudy Apple Wine (new August 2011)

 

 Tomato Sauce, Interrupted (2010)

 

Home Sewn Row Covers (updated March 2011)

 

 

Click around to learn more about my booksblogs, and lectures.  Stay as long as you like! By the time you move on, I hope you feel inspired to garden a little more, and have a great time doing it.
