Somehow this amazing head of lettuce makes me feel that not quite everything is wrong with the world. It was a volunteer amidst the strawberries… 🤷🏻‍♀️🥬🍓☮️ #hopeisagarden #lettucebeworldpeace

Greenhouse is waking up! In fact the greenhouse inside the greenhouse with the heated germination table is almost full. Still rather cold here zone5a/b with large temperature swings. This method has proven to give our homestead an early great start. Raised beds have lettuce, Bok Choy & spinach

This was December Zone 5a/b unheated greenhouse. Winter growing can be a thing, the temperature swings of 20* are challenging, but tucking the plants in undercover of extra poly did the trick, also cold tolerant crops like Bok Choy, spinach and salad greens planted early enough in the late summer

I had froze a pot of tomatoes, I ran out of time so just put the entire pot into the freezer. Today I pulled it out and the most incredible design was frosted on the pot.

January: when you long for summer so much you’re willing to process even more batches of tomatoes ❤️ ☀️ 🍅
