“Stay aware & know how everything is connected. If one part of the ecosystem goes down, everything else goes down with it.“ Maurice Small

Those that plant and grow their own food are true artists.
Having a greenhouse at home is a definite blessing. Season extension is one. We planted these tomatoes from cuttings in a 15 gallon bucket in September. The 4 plants are now 7+ feet tall, bearing flowers and fruits. We should probably begin eating tasty, soil (compost) grown heirloom tomatoes in mid January or sooner. A important FYI for you… when you see the flowers, it’s important to pollinate those flowers. Pollinators don’t go in the greenhouse this time of year and if you want fruits, you gotta help the plant and act like a bee.

When you work with the soil, you are always learning.
We all have a hand in the artistic design of compost.
Book a tour or a hands on experience to learn about composting artistically.
Two of my favorite farm inputs: coffee grounds and brew waste. Both add micro nutrients, moisture, bulk and food for the soil critters large and small. An additional plus is every 7 days, 2,500 pounds of these materials don’t end up in the trash (landfill)!
The zero waste lifestyle… priceless.
Lots of people come out to learn how I use these materials to enhance my soil production, improve zero waste practices for our planet and get their hands dirty helping to sequester carbon. Book a tour or a hands on experience. You will be glad you did (bring some friends too).

So far in February, the weather in Atlanta has been like a rollercoaster and in the span of just a few short days, the weather went from the high 60’s to torrential rain to snow flurries. Reminds me of Ohio except way warmer.
