http://naturehealingpowers.blogspot.com/2013/05/backyard-weeds-for-your-salad.html
Wednesday, May 8, 2013. Backyard weeds for your salad! Once again it's early spring and it's a perfect time to pick the dandelion leaves from my yard. While I may look kind of weird going around the front yard harvesting dandelion leaves, it adds even more nourishment to my organic salads I make every night. Is another editable weed. The best time to harvest the leaves is early in the spring when the leaves are still furled. It is rich in resveratrol and has lots of vitamin C. Weeds for your salad. More ...

Linna's Garden Journal: Nothing to do?
http://linnasgarden.blogspot.com/2011/06/nothing-to-do.html
Thursday, June 23, 2011. Now that the garden is fully mulched, all the spring crops are out and summer crops are all in, I truly feel like I don't have much to do! Believe me, I am not complaining, but it just seems crazy to not feel behind the curve :) I am going to enjoy this for the short time it lasts. Once those tomatoes start coming in I will again feel behind! Last week I harvested my first cucumber and Broden said it was the MOST DELICIOUS cucumber EVER! Ha, ha. A few updates:. All of my garden h...

Nature's Healing Powers: May 2013
http://naturehealingpowers.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 10, 2013. More proof that statin drugs don't prevent heart attacks. There's a new video up at Natural News about how statin drugs are a money making machine and how they don't actually lower your chances of getting a heart attack or stroke. In fact, this article and video talk about how people with low cholesterol are actually at a higher risk of heart disease than those with high cholesterol. Ust Google this phrase: High Cholesterol Levels Don't Cause Heart Disease. Big Pharm has the doctors...

Letting my tomato show its TOMATO-NESS. Tuesday, June 22, 2010. I hate staking tomatoes- so this year I am allowing my San Marzano to be who it wants to be, and she looks GREAT! In the words of Joel Salatan, I am allowing my tomato to show its TOMATONESS by vining! It looks as though you have the room, so why not! June 24, 2010 at 9:17 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I am a FT working mom with lots of schedules to juggle, so if I can grow all this food, you can too! 1,2,3 Food Gardening.

Linna's Garden Journal: What a year..... Mid Summer Update
http://linnasgarden.blogspot.com/2010/07/what-year-mid-summer-update.html
What a year. Mid Summer Update. Wednesday, July 21, 2010. Wow - I haven't written for awhile since life has been so crazy. Between the garden, kids, work, the house.where does time go? Anyhow- I gotta update this year's 'garden good times' to remind me how each year is SO DIFFERENT. Landscaper fabric is working famously. It has been a very dry season and I feel like it is helping keep moisture in. Everything is early this year! I have been canning for the last two days! Nice and 'clean garden'. Yahoo Gro...

Linna's Garden Journal: For the record....
http://linnasgarden.blogspot.com/2011/03/for-record.html
Monday, March 21, 2011. Tulips and Daffodils are blooming now. Days still cold, but around mid 40 on up. Heard spring peepers for the first time on Friday night. Garlic is greening up. Cabbage from fall looks AWESOME! Do you cover your cabbage over winter? I had some fall carrots come through the winter with marvelous results, but my broccoli all shriveled and dead. March 21, 2011 at 12:46 PM. I would like to add - for the record - that I miss you. Rock on garden girl, and happy Spring!

Linna's Garden Journal: Asparagus!
http://linnasgarden.blogspot.com/2011/03/asparagus.html
Monday, March 21, 2011. So yesterday, March 20th, I planted 25 crowns of Asparagus! What a feeling of achievement! I actually needed more room that I had allotted, so I had to move my perennial onions that I planted in the fall into my new 'kitchen garden'. One of the beds is a huge new 'lasagna' bed. Essentially 3 feet of organic stuff from last season covered with 6 inches of soil. The other bed, was a similar 'heap of stuff' last year, and is now the most magical dirt ever! Oh I also pruned the fruit ...
