Gardening was on the agenda

This was bought

And I want onions

60 in here

Garlic too. I use it in everything

And 60 more onions

Gloves to work

Herbs for canned pickles

Kale soup in a package lol

Yum

More herbs

Parsley....where's sage Rosemary and thyme. All needed in the mix

Trying these this year too

And planting these for Mom in Heaven

Her fav flower 

So so pretty

My veggies are in containers and let me tell you I had a decent crop past years 

My secret is watering a little each night

Fertilizing with miracle grow a couple times in the season

Do you have a garden? These times make them more important than ever

Onion and garlic and spices are easy peasy and good flavor enhancers 

I need to find shell bean seeds or plants

Then the dried beans will keep for some nice soups

Tomatoes h ere I come lol

Notice the prices on the packets

4 for 1.00 found at my dollar store

Where can you buy dill for pickling for 25 cents

My niece is trying on making her own teas with lemon balm, marigold, lavender etc. 

A fun experiment for sure

Her mom is stretching her budget by foraging a bit

She gets watercress, dandelion greens, and wants the autumn olive that grows wild in her backyard for the fall

She has made stinging nettle and skunk cabbage is on the agenda ..best with purslane and wild onion and mustard

Another fun project

She said the nettle tastes like spinach

I bet you thought I was gonna say chicken lol

Have you tried foraging? What's good to eat in your area

She is looking into Pine nuts too
