"If a healthy soil is full of death, it is also full of life: worms, fungi, microorganisms of all kinds ...  Given only the health of the soil, nothing that dies is dead for very long." -  Wendell Berry,  The Unsettling of America, 1977 In my opinion, there is nothing on Earth more underrated than … Continue reading The Why & How of Garden Soil Amendment

Lime Meltaway Cookies

September 7, 2016April 10, 2018 / Stephanie Gonzalez / 2 Comments

September is here and once again I find myself up to the ears in limes. My Bearss lime tree is so full of fruit that the limbs are practically touching the ground, ready to buckle. Which is a pretty good indication it is time to harvest! Over 300 limes was the product of this seasons harvest, with a few dozen still left … Continue reading Lime Meltaway Cookies

The “Bad” Grass List

The dog days of summer are upon us. Presently, my lovely dog Willow is sleeping off the heat in some ornamental grass by the house. As a gardener, each season presents its own set of challenges. My biggest gardening woe during the summer season, surprisingly, isn't squash bugs, fire blight, or drought. It's actually grass. Summer is … Continue reading The “Bad” Grass List

It's Friday night. I have a hankering for something sweet. I search the cabinets for some chocolate... nothing. I search the freezer for some ice cream... nothing. I decide to make cookies... no eggs. Oh bother! Why didn't I go grocery shopping today?

Cabbage Worm Eradication

July 15, 2016May 11, 2017 / Stephanie Gonzalez / Leave a comment

This, my friends, is a tale of a very hungry caterpillar that goes by the name of Pieris rapae or Cabbage Worm. Unlike the Children's classic by Eric Carl, this garden pest doesn't dine on watermelon and cupcakes but instead your beloved vegetable garden. He also doesn't turn into a beautiful butterfly at the end of the story … Continue reading Cabbage Worm Eradication

Whoever said "toddlers will eat when they are hungry" has never met my 3 year old son Benjamin. He has a drive for life that I admire, moving a million miles a minute to see and do everything before the day is done. Unfortunately, eating is not high on his list for daily activities.

How-to Freeze Berries

June 7, 2016May 11, 2017 / Stephanie Gonzalez / 2 Comments

We are a blueberry family. By that, I mean we can easily consume several pints of blueberries in a week. As such, blueberries are something I love to grow in my garden. This year I have 6 blueberry plants - three varieties: Jubilee, Jewel, and Legacy. Between the 6 plants, I produce around 30 pints during the growing season. As much … Continue reading How-to Freeze Berries
