Glad to hear yours is coming along Birdie. Mine is sort of at a stand-still. Since I couldn't get it cured in time, I went ahead and planted...

Returned stinky curtains for a full refund, a pain, but felt amazingly happy to be rid of them! Can't see how anyone can stand them. Might get an...

You did indeed. I am waiting for the deets on that one! Bae, two friends from Lopez, one of whom performs at Folklife, got on the 1:30 today....

Our straw bale garden is doing quite well so far; we have 2 pumpkin plants and 6 or 8 container sized sunflowers growing. We just supplemental fed...

You are quite ahead of me. I have green tomatoes, but won't even have ripe cherry tomatoes until June. I just picked my first zucchini this week,...

You can use T-stakes and the sheets of concrete reinforcing wire that are 4' x 7'. If you pound the stakes in at an angle, zip tie or wire the wire...

Yeah, i guess since she puts on so many diversity trainings and we are required to attend those and talk about judgements and assumptions, etc. it...

Those ideas are good. I can make the cage type with the multitude of sticks I have and not disrupt what i already have in the ground

Good score Tradd. I have to admit that I bought that jacket myself. I got a deal, but not as good a deal as you are getting. Good for you!
