Let us know you're coming!

* In the event of severe weather, the Seed Swap & Scion Exchange will be postponed to the following Sunday, April 5 from 12-4 pm.

"Gardeners and orchardists are invited to bring their #seeds, #scionwood and #cuttings to share. If you don’t have any, come anyway! There is always plenty of seeds and scion to go around.

If you’ve been to the event before, you know that space can get tight at the start of the event. We encourage folks to join the event later in the day — we promise, there are still plenty of seeds and scions available over the duration of the event!

Community members and local seed #growers regularly bring an incredible variety of #vegetable, #fruit, #flower, and #herb seeds. We also regularly have over 150+ types of scionwood to share, including scionwood sourced from MOFGA’s orchards. We will also have limited quantities of #rootstock for sale. Custom #grafting is available by donation to the #MaineHeritageOrchard.

Other items for sharing are welcome such as plants, cuttings, #seedlings, hatching eggs, #kombucha and #YogurtStarters, #salves and other homemade items.

The day’s offerings also include #gardening and #orcharding workshops and demonstrations. Our full list of educational offerings for the day is coming soon!"

What is it with #Latino men in #USA who are in high degree supporting mr #tinyhands #diaperdon #trump

Who do you think he thinks will take over the #illegal immigrants that he is at the moment hiring at hos hotels? They pay and work condition will be the same as for the #deported #immigrants in #trumpland

Don't think a #whitepower person would suddenly think kindly of minorities, he will just see you as future #salves

I've been thinking about organic gardening, #infectious #parasites and their effect on gardeners, catching up on research I noticed re #diseases in ancient Egyptian civilisations.

Given that as society breaks down we are going turn more and more more to #human waste spread on land both as means of disposal and enrichment, what can do to protect ourselves from intestinal and skin parasites? (#Roundworm, #tapeworm etc)

I know we already use composting toilets etc, but this relies on #composting human waste for around a year (or more) and maybe there will be a need to speed up (ot shortcut) the process as "normal" society collapses.

So, what are the bare minimum requirements of a "safe" process, and are there any home remedies (#herbal brews, #salves and #potions) that have been used to treat these #infections in the past?

Oooooh. It's been six weeks.

Which means my cayenne oil is ready to be used.

Next on my list: Cayenne Salve!

JUST RESTOCKED!

Homemade, hand poured, small batch rose salves!

I made the rose oil using rose petals from my own garden-- it also has beeswax, rose hip seed oil, and mica powder for a little color.

You can use it for moisturizing your skin or chapped lips, and it even has anti-aging properties!

I just posted homemade small batch rose salve in my Etsy shop.

Rose petal (from my garden) infused olive oil, rose hip seed oil, beeswax, and mica powder.

No fragrance or essential oils added-- its all natural baby.

Can be used for dry skin, dry lips, and even has some anti-aging properties!

You should check it out and get yourself some. :D
