Another backyard garden done just in time for summer crops! The sidewalk and driveway here created the perfect spot for these veggie & herb beds with generous wood chip paths, all within ten steps of the kitchen. Cap it all off with drip irrigation and you've got one convenient garden!

Here's to a bountiful future!

Critter cages!

Sharing is caring, but sometimes the only way to get an un-munched salad out of the garden is to lock down your lettuce!

Hard for a garden to look bad in April!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's been a month of madness (sans brackets) for me, wrangling a slew of garden projects as a one-man show with no sign of a slow down anytime soon. If you're waiting on an email or a quote from me, I'm sorry and thanks for your patience! It can be a real challenge balancing all the plates of a small business, but seeing your gardens greening-up and the fruit buds swelling sure helps...

Pruning season is coming to a close, but I managed to bring these two muscadine vines back to some semblance of order this afternoon! Pruning muscadines this heavily can feel pretty brutal, but it must be done!

The inherent wisdom of plants is something I'm constantly amazed by - how does a flower know when to wake up? Native plants that have coevolved in a consistent ecosystem train their internal clocks to match the local climate patterns. A native black cherry that blooms too early and gets hit with a late frost doesn't get to pass along its genetics, after all.

When we introduce and install new plants, such as fruit trees who aren't attuned to East Tennessee's climate, they run the risk of waking up too early in the spring, or not receiving enough "chill hours" during the winter, leading to a partial or complete crop loss. It's crucial that you take these factors into account when selecting non-native plants.

Appropriate variety selection is one of the top indicators of success when it comes to fruit & berry production!

Thanks for coming to my TED talk 😆

A berry bright future is just around the corner!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Berries are one of the quickest-impact additions to the foodscape, and one of the best ways to draw kids out to the garden - I don't think any of our strawberries or blackberries ever even made it into the kitchen last year!

It's not too late to add some berries to your space this year, but don't wait too long!

You're gonna regret it, I promise. Landscape fabric might seem like an easy solution for keeping weeds at bay, but given enough time the weeds will always win.
