Sow Good Gardens

What a sweet potato haul!! These babies are headed to the barn to cure for a few weeks before we can enjoy them. Flavor aside (maybe we’ll revisit that in a few weeks), the Korean Gold produced the greatest amount of potatoes per plant, by far. We also planted Carogold and something else that lost its marker😵.
Love having these harvested and put up for all the winter soups, roasts, and fries!

I’m a big believer that if you can pair a garden with a cup of chickens, you’ll never have to waste a thing and you’ll always have compost 💚 Oh, and there’s eggs to boot!

It had to be done 🤗
Zinnia LOVE to be cut and produce better and better as a result. Good thing! Everyone should have fresh cut flowers to play with💚

You can do this now! Fall gardening is the easiest - you’re planting now and then letting the garden store it for you!
Now is also an amazing time to find a local source for meat, eggs, and cheese. Check out a few of our favorites:




You don’t have a garden yet? Give me a call! We can get you started this season!

Start a gardening business, they said. It’ll be fun, they said. 😆🤪🥵

The strongest heat dome on Earth right now is sitting on Tennessee.

Heat makes air swell. The hotter the dome, the higher the whole atmosphere stacks up.

Over Tennessee, the halfway point of the atmosphere is 19,665 feet up. That is higher than over the Sahara. Higher than the Middle East. Higher than anywhere else on the planet.

Nashville hit 100 yesterday and is forecast to do it again today.

Tired of grocery store lettuce?
Follow along as we see how quickly we can grow a 2’x4’ bed of greens from seed to harvest.
It’s August 18th and today we planted Lavewa spinach, Marvel of Four Seasons lettuce, and Lava Lamp lettuce. I refreshed an older metal bed with a bag of Espoma Land & Sea organic compost I’ll water twice today to ensure the seeds stay damp in our 90° heat.
Note, this bed only gets 5-6 hours of morning sun.

Want to get mad?
Want to get energized to grow more?
Want to understand better why you want to grow your own food?

This episode of The How I Grow This Podcast gives a refresher on chemicals to avoid and why. Did you order salad, a burrito, or hummus OR cancer, Parkinson’s, and hormone disrupters?

Personally, I need these reminders of why I do what I do. I need to remember that my family’s health is worth the time, effort, and money that a home garden entails.

Anyone can do this. Anyone, with a patch of sunshine can grow at least a little bit on their own and ANYONE can spend their food dollars on local food that is raised clean.

Make good choices, people 🥕
