Plants have been on this planet for a lot longer than specialists have, and somehow they managed to survive without all the sprays and solutions, pellets and potions. Most have several.

While I am cleaning up the depotted plants, the chickens will go over to a garden bush, usually new and fresh with hopes of growth all about it, and those chickens, with their long nails and group efforts will have that bush dug up and laying on its side...

Today we will go together on a very nice hike, easy enough to take the kids but still requiring caution, as it gets pretty steep on some parts. The reward will be a swim in cool, pure fresh water under a huge waterfall.

The water pipe has sunk into the ground, covered by grass roots and is pretty much invisible. Moving fences everyday would take some doing; we used metal posts and smooth wire in the beginning, and dragging the wire through the grass to the edge of the...

Fall is the perfect time for putting in a new lawn, or renovating a used up one. I see that my roses are trying for a fall bloom flush, but I don't think they have the energy to make a go of it.

Very little skin is exposed to either the sun or the slicing corn leaves.Detasselers are required to bring at least a gallon of water, in addition to a packed lunch. The detasselers have a deceptively simple job: reach up to the top of the stalk, pull...

So we only saw six of those fascinating plants that creep, climb and slowly but surely can cover an ugly fence or uninteresting decaying plant, we still have many more to discover, so be sure to come back!

You are so trendsetting that, you took my muck boots and made them into a fashion nightmare statement. I loved that you brought out friends and we all just had the most happy time.

We can now walk out of this ravine and go back to civilization, maybe enjoying a drink by the lagoon before heading home to the garden. A previous article introduced you to a few vines growing on my tiny secluded island and as stated then just meant brushing...

I imagine him there, still telling stories about the year he grew enough potatoes to feed the entire town or how many of those ‘bad beetles' he had to pick off his green beans for two weeks straight.It made me think of my first attempt at vegetable...
