Just wanted to drop in and say How’s it Growing? Hope you’re all doing well! Hope you enjoy my pics

Came home and it appears my plants survived the cold temps and possible first frost. My peppers didn’t turn red so I went ahead and pulled them this evening. Had a good handful of snow peas and a few more green beans though most of them are a tad bit larger than I prefer. I’m off the next couple days too, so hoping I can clean out the beds. There is some kale that I can process up to use in Gabby’s food or crumble up to use in recipes. The green onions look like they need a trimming again for more dehydrated greens. Quite dark out already so didn’t really see the herbs. I’ll check those in the morning. Now it’s time to just eat some dinner and just relax for the night. It’s been a long two days in the car. The worst part about my daughter living cross country from us. We need to just start flying down and renting a car. Though, she usually takes time off to do play chauffeur to everywhere we go. lol. Looking forward to really getting back into the group and being more active.

Hi I’m new to gardening and would love to start but not sure where. My goal is to harvest herbs and vegetables that I use every in the kitchen. Can any share tips? I have pots but scared to plant seeds because I’m unsure how to keep it going.

Tropical Milkweed (Asclepias curassavica), also known as bloodflower or red butterfly weed. Monarch and other butterflies love it. I need this in my garden at home. Too bad I don’t live here in tropical Florida. It is so beautiful. Google says I can grow it here in Michigan but it’s considered an annual though I could overwinter inside I like the idea of moving to Florida better though. lol.

'Tis time to start planning our next live workshop! What topic(s) would you be most excited to learn about right now?? We could tackle something seasonal, like preparing your garden for winter, or we could dive into a specific topic or crop and walk through everything you need to know from start to finish! I've put some ideas below, but if you're in between a few or there's something else you've been wanting to learn, 𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗽 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗮(𝘀) 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀!
