New resident to the greenhouse!!
🎃🕷️ Don't Squish the Pumpkin Spiders!
We've got so many beautiful cross orb-weavers, also known as European garden spiders or pumpkin spiders, around The McKee Garden this fall!
These little garden helpers are natural pest control, catching flies, mosquitoes, moths, and other insects in their beautiful webs.
💚 They're generally harmless to people and wonderful to have in the garden!
If you find one somewhere inconvenient, please gently relocate it to a sheltered spot with plants or shrubs rather than squishing it.
Not all garden helpers have wings. Some have eight legs! 🕸️💚

Found a new resident this week and I'm a little obsessed! 💚

A brown praying mantis (probably a European one) caught mid-meal. And that walnut-looking lump? An egg sac, which means babies come spring.

Mantises are one of the best natural pest-control partners a garden can have 🪲 — aphids, moths, flies, all gone, no spray needed. If you spot an egg sac on your property, leave it be. Free pest management and one of the coolest bugs you'll ever share a garden with.

Now if I could just find a hundred more of these little guys, I'd be the happiest gardener👩‍🌾 in Bow.

Every morning here feels like opening my eyes for the first time. We came from somewhere else with different roots and a different lifestyle, but Skagit Valley has become something I didn't know I needed. 5 years in and still, each day arrives like a small miracle. I'm so grateful we found this place to call home.

Another greenhouse project checked off! 🙌

It’s amazing what a little leveling and a whole lot of gravel can do. We're so happy with how this turned out — it finally feels like the greenhouse is coming together. 🤍🌿

Now for the part we've REALLY been waiting for… filling it with plants! Stay tuned! 🌱

Remember all those greenhouse weeds I covered up with tarps? Well, it was finally time to pull them back and see how well it actually worked. I was pleasantly surprised with the results! All that sweating in a 100° greenhouse was definitely worth it. 😂🌱

I realized my last video may have left a few questions! So here’s a better look at how and why I grow my pole beans this way. 😊🫘

Growing my pole beans this way has been a total game changer and has definitely saved my back! So far I’ve canned about 20 quarts, and I still have SO many beans left to go. 😂🫙
