🌞🌿March Challenge & New Course!🌿🌞
🌿 Get Ready to Grow! 🌿 Spring is almost here… and March is our month to prepare. Before the rush of planting and harvesting begins, this is the perfect time to build, make, mix, and start the things that will set us up for a beautiful, productive growing season. 🌞 This month’s theme is Get Ready to Grow - and I’ve created something special to go along with it. I put together a course with 31 simple garden projects to spark ideas and inspiration. You do not need to complete all 31. Think of it as a menu - small, doable projects that help you move forward one step at a time. This course is available to everyone for the month of March so click over to the "Classroom" Tab and check it out!🌱 Here’s the heart of the challenge: Each week in March, choose projects that help prepare your garden for the upcoming season - and post about what you’re making or growing in the community so we can inspire each other. πŸ’š Your project might be: πŸ”¨ Structures β€’ Build a trellis β€’ Make a cold frame β€’ Create raised beds or planters 🎨 Decor β€’ Paint garden rocks β€’ Make plant markers β€’ Design a garden sign 🌿 Soil β€’ Start a compost system β€’ Mix your own potting soil β€’ Refresh garden beds πŸ’§ Watering Systems β€’ Make an olla β€’ Set up simple drip irrigation β€’ Create a rainwater collection system 🌱 Seedlings β€’ Start sprouts β€’ Plant seeds indoors β€’ Grow your first plant starts This isn’t about perfection. It’s about momentum. ✨ One small project a week can completely change how prepared and confident you feel when planting season arrives AND you don’t need a big garden to do this - I’ve got projects for tiny spaces and apartments too! So, Post pictures. πŸ“Έ Share your progress. Show us your messy workbench, your half-built trellis, your tiny seedlings. When we see each other building and growing, it reminds us that we can do it too. 🌼 Let’s spend March laying the groundwork - literally and figuratively - so when spring fully arrives, we’re ready. Who’s in?! 🌸
Pennslyvania spring classics
I've got dead nettle and violets growing all over 😍 Any favorite recipes for either of these two? I personally just snack on the violets because I'm impatient πŸ˜… Purple dead-nettle (lamium purpureum): It’s called dead because, unlike stinging nettles, it doesn't have the stinging hairs Common blue violet (viola sororia): The sororia part comes from Latin for "sisterly," likely referring to how they grow in cozy little clusters.

I just love collecting seeds
I'm in california (zone 9b) and there's some plants in my garden that are forming their seed pods. I am too excited and I want to harvest the seeds from them now-- in this case in talking mainly about my poppies and Nasturtium. The seeds are still green/ yellow-is. Do I have to wait till they brown and dry up before I collect? Would collecting before they fall naturally off the plant affect the viability of the seed?

I delivered dozens of seed packets today. I pin them to public bulletin boards and leave them at the two free plant swap locations in town.

I'm just vibing with nature and Bug
2nd photo is low laying brush KNOWN AS california Fucsia(EPILOBIUM CANUM). 3rd photo is just showing off my narrow leaf milkweed growing on its own free will. There's so many little milkweeds along this border. Last flowers are brittle bush (ENCELIA FARINOSA).
