Time to make another batch of #tomato jam! I love this stuff on so many things, mostly eggs, cheese, and meats. #tomatoes #gardening #seedToTable
Yesterday I found myself saying, “I love this time of year when the #tomatoes still have leaves.” 😜 🍅 #gardening #communityGarden #GrowYourOwn #SeedToTable @gardening

This year I planted a milpa-inspired bed with #squash #beans and #sorghum in place of #corn / #maize.

Everything grew great! The weird thing, however, was that the beans did not flower. At all. Until after the fall equinox when it was too late for them to mature pods. I planted Frijol Negro Santanero from Rancho Gordo that were grown in #Oaxaca. Turns out, much to my surprise, common beans can be day-length sensitive! I live too far north for this tropical variety.

First #tomato of the year to start ripening. It’s Anna Russian. #gardening #organicGardening #tomatoes #seedToTable
Just got my first hit on Seed Savers Exchange after listing for a year and a half. Long story short, he was double checking I only wanted SASE and a bit surprised when I said the equivalent of “Heck yeah and I’ll send one of everything!” Share seeds! He doesn’t know I’m scrounging to slip in some unlisted stuff. #SeedSaving #gardening #SeedToTable #GrowYourOwn
43 #tomatoes in. Bring the rain. Didn’t have the energy to tackle the #peppers. Maybe Wednesday between rainy days. The #fennel is the best looking I’ve ever grown. #BokChoy is bolting. 2/3 of the #broccoli starts have croaked. But, speaking of croaking, I encountered two adorable wee #toads that made me glad I was there. ❤️ Bless their warty little souls! Sorry no pix because gloves and chicken poo fertilizer and just hot and tired. #gardening #OrganicGardening #GrowYourOwn #SeedToTable
Here we go! It’s below freezing outside but the #garden has started indoors. Whenever I look at my seedlings I’m amazed at how such wee things end up making such a jungle of #vegetables in the months to come. #gardening #SeedToTable #GrowYourOwn
Wrapping up Valentine/Anniversary/Bonobo week with some heart-shaped #squash ravioli. Now I just need to remember how to make sage brown butter sauce. #cooking #food #SeedToTable
