What a lovely start to the new year with some beautiful garden posts. I'm excited about this year in the Hive Garden, though I'll be travelling for most of it! If anyone fancies giving me a hand with the garden journal, I'd sure appreciate it!
@proto26 started his new year off planting beans and feeding his garden gnome chocolate. He offers some interesting tips about fertilising with eggshells and lime - don't miss his post to find out the details!
@owasco, in eyeing her winter garden, contemplates the labour of food growing:
Growing vegetables is closer to raising human beings than it is to growing flowers. Tons of time! Gobs of caring! Year round work!
Still, she's enjoying some winter stores whilst - dare I say it - feeling at least some satisfaction she's well on her food growing journey.
@multifacetas needs to move out of her place, so her garden will also be moved! Let's hope she gets a new place soon. @hiramdo was also moving plants - I think the first 'travelling' garden in the Hive Garden! @nill2021 showed us her sister's garden, including this lovely orchid!
Despite moving and not having as much direct sunlight, @dora381's efforts to grow vegetables was inspiring! Plus, I'm tempted to finally try pumpkin flowers and leaves - I always only think of eating the pumpkin itself! @travoved describes this time of year as the 'lazy' season as it's too cold and snowy to be in the outside garden - still, there's orchids and cactus to tend! @godslove123 showed us around his aunt's garden. I do like learning about the plants that aren't common where I am.
@mosupholstery walked us through the very intersting process of harvesting cassava and preparing it as a food.
