Summer Time and Green Things are Growing!
Tomatoes Flowering, Kale - Winter Bor Harvesting, Kale - White Chidori Flowering Harvesting, Strawberry Spi...17°C / 62°FThe weather can’t seem to make up its mind lately but I think we’re finally in summer mode… foggy most days, but when it clears up it’s gorgeous and warm. It’s still a little windy on the coast and we had quite a bit of rain late in the season, so I guess it’s ...

11°C / 51°FSpring in Mendocino… heaven on earth (well, unless you have allergies, which thankfully I don’t). It’s been a long time since my last journal, and a long time since I’d done any gardening… I moved into my own place in mid November last year after a big break-up…...

folia question: Why can't I archive my garden?
I am trying to archive my old garden, here: http://myfolia.com/gardens/5218-organic-eden-garden since I’ve moved. But whenever I go to the garden’s page and click the “archive” button, it asks me if I’m sure, I click ok, it thinks forever, and then shows me a white e...Cloudy 8°C / 46°F -

Sunny 16°C / 61°FWow, it has been a long time since I’ve updated and life has been insane. I have been slacking a bit on the garden as the fall festival season has begun – we’re going to 3 festivals this fall, all within a couple weeks of each other. Craziness! Things are most definitely changin...

10°C / 50°FWhere does the time go!? It’s been a while since I’ve updated… I had a fabulous time in Peru with my sister and saw so many amazing plants! We saw avocado, mango, banana, papaya, coffee, coca, hibiscus, poinsetta, and so many other beautiful tropical plants. And of course I hoop...

13°C / 55°FThe rain finally stopped and we had a couple weeks of clear, hot weather. Then the summer solstice came and now it seems that we’re back to our typical summer weather, which means fog. It’s usually quite sunny in the morning and by late afternoon, there’s a thick marine layer of...

Overcast 17°C / 63°FAs I write this, it’s raining, and has been every few days for the last couple of months. Usually by this time it’s dry and we don’t get a drop of rain until late fall. Not that it’s a bad thing, we don’t have to water the garden and we were in a drought before, but ...

I found out about a new gardening site called Your Garden Show and uploaded some photos there. It’s a little like folia, but not as much a gardening resource as eye candy for garden nerds! The focus seems to be on photos & videos more than sharing information, but it is certainly inspir...11°C / 52°F -

A Wet Spring Means Lots of Weeds and Lots of Flowers, Too!
Organic Eden garden and Patio and Container garden12°C / 53°FIt’s been rainy the last few days, but today we finally got some more glorious spring sunshine! Rain is forecasted for tomorrow as well… at least we don’t have to water the garden much! We finished digging some manure into and forming two beds in front of the raspberry patch. I ...

Cloudy 10°C / 50°FI am happy to report that we have lots of manure now! Woohoo! Sen & our friend Rick picked up two truckloads of well-composted pony poop. It’s sitting in piles in the garden right now, ready to be worked into beds. Today we got some rain, which means we didn’t have to water, but w...
