As it is about mid-April, I think it’s time we do a little bit of a tour of the garden. Kind of a Before, though, technically some things have already happened. But just to give you an impression of what everything looks like at the moment. Now in April. First big thing that has already…

089 A fence for freedom?!
My potatoes are ready to go in the ground. But neither me nor the bed are ready. And the storms are not helping. Ironically, I built a fence to give Pepper more freedom. The potatoes moved into the greenhouse, and I give you a tour of my first batch of seedlings. I just got to…

088 I have a greenhouse now
With my husband back at work, I set out to finish the greenhouse alone. I had to get it done before the wind got too strong–and didn’t like the time pressure at all. The next day, with more time pressure, I put up the rain collection system. We couldn’t quite finish the greenhouse as planned.…

083 Why I’m not quitting
When I started my first Youtube channel in 2018, I didn’t think I’d last long. Many years later, I can’t imagine not creating videos, sharing my journey and my knowledge. Today, I’ll tell you all about why I am not quitting and the future of my channel while dealing with a bunch of trash in…

082 Demo day and froggy forest
With my bedroom slowly turning into a plant nursery, I use any okay day to work in the garden and make progress there. This time, I continued the demolition of the second hut. Tearing down the shed is far from done, but I called it a day to enjoy a forest walk past where the…
