Why choose one variety of eggplant, when you can try 3 heirlooms? 🍆 What is your favorite eggplant dish? I have single variety pots as well.

The best way to attract swallowtails to your garden is to plant their host plants!

Who loves feeding their swallowtails but always runs out of food?
I winter sowed golden alexander but not ready yet. I started a bunch of bronze fennel to plant more on my property but also to sell extras. Mine I planted two years ago, keeps overwintering and volunteers. It gets over 5 ft tall, can benefit from trims to keep it less woody. It was covered in swallowtail caterpillars last year and other insects loved the blooms. Plus it is edible!
I will also have catnip, and native anise hyssop available. I'll put a few out at my farmstand. $3-$8 depending on the number of plants.

With the longer spring days, my flock has went into OT! Time to make egg salad, quiche, lemon meringue pie and cheesecake. My geese finally started laying so I made a custard pie. So delicious! Come buy a dozen eggs or 3 or 5! 😁

Ostara — the Spring Equinox. is a time for fresh starts, new opportunities, and planting intentions for what you want to grow in your life — peace, love, healing, stability, or prosperity.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, tired, or weighed down, this season gently reminds us that nothing stays frozen forever. Life returns, paths open, and new doors appear when we’re ready to walk toward them.

Take a moment today to open a window, let sunlight into your home, clear your space, and think about what you want the next chapter of your life to look like.

May what you begin now flourish 🌼✨

If there is an interest in safe canning methods including pressure canning, I can do a few classes throughout the growing season. I've been canning for decades, as did my Mother and Grandma.
