VEGETABLE CSA PROGRAM

The vegetable program is retired for now. We will sell vegetables on the side this summer but there will not be a C.S.A. in 2017. If you know a farmer willing to adopt our C.S.A., please have them call Karen @419-433-6126 stating you are interested in VEGETABLE AVAILABILITY.

We will keep folks notified of extra vegetables for sale via our e-newsletter or direct email so if you are interested, email Karen requesting to be put on our e-newsletter list. See instruction below.

If you want a more consistent and bountiful flow of vegetables, I highly recommend "Shared Legacy Farm's" CSA in Elmore, OH. This amazing young couple and staff offer certified organic vegetables in their vegetable program. Here's the link:

A Child's Garden

...is close to my heart. Here's a few things I've learned along the way:
1. Can be as simple as a circle of herbs in the ground or a themed herb patio pot
2. Keep in mind the child from small accessories to pruning like Dr. Seuss
3. Teach with it- the lessons of living and dying, the wild variety of textures & shapes living harmoniously...
4. Build your muscles & imagination with healthy harvests & faery stories
5. Invite wildlife attracting hummingbirds with sage, precious bees with thyme & hyssop and butterflies with parsley & sage

Here are some guessing games with herbs you might have in your child's garden:

What plant smells like....ANSWER...
dirty socks? CILANTRO
grandma's perfume ROSE SCENTED GERANIUM
lemons? LEMON VERBENA or THYME

What herbs are... ANSWER
soft? LAMB'S EAR
velvety? PEPPERMINT SCT. GERANIUM
crispy? PEPPER BASIL

What herbs look like... ANSWER
brown & feathery? BRONZE FENNEL
a pine tree? ROSEMARY
seaweed? SAMPHIRE

Most of all, please do not re-plant or re-space your child's work. That's part of the learning as well. ENJOY!

A Faery Garden? How to make one.

1. Think location. Do you have a child or a visiting child that has a favorite hiding area? Ben and Joshua chose a spot years ago on the shady, north side of our barn that had some weedy “Box Elders” and lots of rocks! That’s where it went. Anywhere is fine, granted, it’s a treasured “secret spot.”

2. Ponder what plants qualify as “Wee Folk” worthy. While the only limits are your imagination, classics include the traditional Cicely Mary Barker plants like “Cowslip Primrose, Double Daisies, Ragged Robin,” and many others. We’re guided by plants that are fairly small, have delicate blossoms, are usually hardy perennials, (“Elfin Herb’s” a sweet exception), tolerate at least a little shade (for those secret places), and have a good flowering span from spring through fall.

3. Most importantly, take time for soil preparation. Extra humusy, organic material is always good.

4. Embellish. Gather twigs and moss for faery houses and furniture. Look in your couch for marbles. They make terrific gazing balls.

A G-Scale Railroad Garden

Garden Railroads are America’s hottest new hobby. Larger than the traditional indoor Christmas train, these weather-proof models run outdoors throughout gardens that are landscaped with miniature plants appropriate for this scale (G-scale). Small buildings and roads are added to create some amazingly realistic worlds. Interested? Then you have to check out “Garden Railways” magazine. Call 800-533-6644 for a trial subscription. Amazing photos.

O.K. for you railroad gardeners, here is a partial listing of suggested plants and how they can be used for your miniature world. Most are appropriate for a broad range of train scales. Look through our entire miniature section to determine the particular varieties listed, their hardiness and special qualities. Full grown versions of plants normally will NOT work in railroad settings, stone troughs or faery gardens. Don't forget the herbs for your RxR garden.

Most of the Thymes, mini Basils, Dwarf Curry, and hey even Parsley are great as well.

Common Uses:Container, Houseplants, Miniature/Faery Garden

This miniature rosette ""Aeonium"" of bright green foliage can be a favorite on next year's St. Patrick's Day. Because of its thumb-sized rosettes on 4"" woody stem, it makes a no hassle ""Jar Gem"" as well as a tree in miniature desert landscapes. $ 4.99

Cold Tolerance: Zone 9b-11
Light: P. Shade - P. Sun
Height: 8 x 8 inches
Water: Normal
Soil: Sandy-Loamy
Common Uses:Terrariums, Shady RxR Gardens

Alternanthera are popular in public gardens because of the colorful show they perform in mass and their tolerance of pruning shears. Allow it to be a golden tropical tree or trim the top for a bushy annual specimen outdoors in the faery or railroad landscape. $ 0.00

Rivals only ""True Elfin Thyme"" for the tightest, lowest, most micro-leaved groundcover we've spyed. Perfect ""Walk-About"" for those too sunny OR not sunny enough pathways. Because it needs good drainage and frequent water, it is the ideal lawn for mini landscapes and railroad gardens. Thyme-sized, white flowers decorate the foliage like frosting buds on a cake. $ 4.99

Cold Tolerance: Zone 4a 4b 5a 5b 6a 6b 7a 7b 8a 9a

Shrink a ""Silver Mound"" artemesia to a 2"" bush, turn it greenish gray and you have this equally soft, fine textured cousin. Sweet fragarance and, for an Artemisia, it seems to handle the summer humidity pretty darn well. $ 4.99

Baby Tears, Golden

Soleirolia soleirollii 'Aurea'

Cold Tolerance: Zone 8a 9a 9b-11
Light: P.Shade-P.Sun to Shade
Height: 1in. groundcover
