Celebrating #SmallBusinessWeek by starting the seeds I bought from the MIgardener. They are located in Saint Claire, Michigan, and offer a larger variety of seeds, bare root plants and #sustainable products. I am a little late in starting them but I’ll get a few weeks head start ahead of the last frost date. Here are the seeds I am most excited for: 1️⃣Butterfly Milkweed - To provide a food source for #butterflies and other #pollinators. 2️⃣Butternut Squash - this will get harvested towards the end of the season. Which will be a great item to give me fresh produce into the winter months and go into some of my favorite recipes. 3️⃣Italian Basil - Because I use a ton of it already and fresh is the best! 4️⃣Two varieties of tomatoes - For use in making soups, sauces, and other recipes. 5️⃣Two different #WildFlower mixes - this will increase #biodiversity in my yard and beautify a large portion of my green space. How are you supporting a #SmallBusiness not only this week, but everyday? And tell me what you are growing in your garden! #ShopLocal #Plants #Gardening #NativePlants #MonarchButterlies #PollinatorPower #ChemicalFreeYard

🍅 Pruning your tomato plants is an easy way to prevent disease and promote fruit production. But did you know that not all tomato plants should be pruned? 🤔 Determinate tomato varieties, often referred to as 'bush' tomatoes, do not need to be pruned as they develop all of their fruit at one time. On the other hand, indeterminate tomato varieties, such as Beefsteak and Brandywine, continue to extend in length and produce fruit throughout the growing season, and thus, benefit from regular pruning. 🌿 Pruning helps the plant focus on the fruit instead of putting its energy into growing more leaves. It also improves airflow, controls size, and can lead to bigger fruit! 🍅 Sharing is caring! 👆 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gfVid4Qg #GardeningTips #TomatoPruning #Gardening101 #AskNorma #lovewhereyoulive #BiggerHarvest #SustainYourself #GrowingTomatosInLasVegas #normagarciarogers #here4u

World food day: Right to food for a better life and a better future Everyone has a right to the right food. Not one person or a particular group of people can help us to achieve this. We all have a quota, no matter how little, to contribute so that we can achieve the right to the right food Some of the ways we can do that are; practicing home gardening: we don't need a large piece of land to practice home gardening, a small piece is enough for this, also the use of buckets and sacks to plant. Avoiding food loss and waste: this starts from the farmers. A lot of foods go to waste from the harvesting stage, if this could be prevented, we will have more food to eat. Also in the food transmission chain, proper food preservation, processing, and storage should be done to food to prevent waste. Some of these methods are: drying, salting, fermentation, refrigeration to mention a few. To the consumers, you should only buy the food you can consume at a particular period of time. Do not keep excess foods for too long without preserving them. Do we ever imagine why we have abundant foods in the raining season and less in the dry season? It is because the excess foods from the raining season were not preserved for the off-season. If we can put in that little effort, I believe no one would be left behind in the right to the right food

The Ultimate Guide to Harvesting Potatoes at the Perfect Time. If you are a potato enthusiast eager to reap a bountiful harvest of fresh, delicious spuds, you've come to the right place! Harvesting potatoes at the optimal time is crucial for ensuring a successful yield and mouth-watering flavor. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore the best time to harvest potatoes, along with some valuable tips to help you maximize your harvest. The Best Time to Harvest Potatoes Potatoes are typically ready to harvest 2-3 weeks after the plants have finished flowering. This is the ideal time to dig up your potatoes, as they will have reached their full size and maturity. Waiting too long to harvest can result in overgrown potatoes with a tough texture and diminished flavor. To determine if your potatoes are ready for harvesting, gently dig around the base of a plant and feel for the size of the tubers. Potatoes should be firm to the touch and have developed a thick skin. Avoid harvesting potatoes that are still small or have a thin, delicate skin, as they are not yet mature. Harvesting Tips Timing is Key: Timing is crucial when it comes to harvesting potatoes. Be patient and wait for the plants to finish flowering before digging up your crop. Check the Foliage: Keep an eye on the foliage of your potato plants. Once the leaves start to turn yellow and die back, it's a sign that the potatoes are ready to be harvested. Handle with Care: When harvesting potatoes, be gentle to avoid damaging the tubers. Use a garden fork or spade to carefully dig around the base of the plant and lift the potatoes out of the soil. Cure Before Storage: After harvesting, allow your potatoes to cure before storing.#organicfarming #potaotes #gardening #vegetablegardening #backyardgardening

So I’ve finally decided to start growing my own herbs, spices fruit and veg as I’m fed up of rising costs, poor quality and also throwing away what we don’t use.
