Join me today as we discuss…
- Gogi Berry
- Jujube
- Nanking Bush Cherry
- Blue Honeysuckle
- High Bush Cranberry
- Elderberry
- Clumping Bamboo

It is March 2nd and much of the North East just got over “Snowercane 10″, heck I am in Texas and I had an inch of snow last week and over 10 inches just two weeks ago. The northern half of the country has ground that is currently still frozen and I want to talk about gardening? You bet! The thaw is coming and odds are many are already behind the power curve.
Join me today as we discuss these steps
- Draw a sketch of your property including energy patterns
- Pick a few edible perennials to get up and running this year
- Estimate and plan for your planting dates
- Set up your late frost contingency plans
- Go through your potting equipment, clean, sort, organize
- Walk your entire property with new eyes
- Plan at least one passive water harvesting project for 2010
- Plan or begin the development of predator habitat
- Identify what is growing now and learn from that
- Plan one “hard scape” project for 2010

We have looked at some dark subjects lately, we will look at more soon but let’s put a positive subject in today that focuses more on what we can do rather than why we need to do it. It is early Feburary, much of the nation is frozen solid, this may not sound like time to get going with a garden but indeed in most places you may already be late with some seed starting.
Tune in today as we discuss…
- Starting seeds vs. buying plants
- What can you grow now in many (not all places)
- Why you need a green house of some sort
- Thinking beyond the vegetable beds
- Winter is a good time to build things
- Mini green houses of all types
- Seed Savers Exchange - Join Now
