What a difference a week can make! These two sets of tomatoes were all grown from seed by me at the same time. I planted 6 on May 15 and the rest on May 23. The first 6 are 2 or 3 times bigger than the rest. The other differences are the bigger ones are in raised beds with a layer of hay and horse manure under the soil and and mulch on top and they were the 6 biggest seedlings when they were started. Gardening is an experiment. Lots of things to learn and improve upon next year.

We named our little farm "For Now Farm" because "now" is really the only time that exists. The past is gone and the future hasn't arrived. So enjoy where you are now!

I had an amazing day yesterday celebrating my last half birthday this side of half a century and also the summer solstice. My life is very charmed indeed. #grownostr #lifeisgood #goodvibes #solstice

My first time ever harvesting produce to sell. It will be sold at tomorrow's farmers market. 6 bunches each of kale and chard. My goal is to sell enough this summer to buy next year's seeds. 🤞 #gardening #grownostr

More pretties!!

Without any clues or points of reference, I don't believe that most people would guess where this barren landscape is.

Maggie, I miss you already!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Everything tastes better when you grow it yourself!

Poppies are poppin'!

The best view in the world is my front yard! ❤️🐴

Finally got the blue bottle tree up! No more evil spirits at our house! #gardenart #gardening
