Not every gardener needs to do this step, but if portions of your irrigation system stays put through winter… it’s hella important. 💨❄️

Blowing out the lines helps prevent freezes, cracks, and springtime heartbreak when you discover a line busted!

We used our air compressor to blow the lines, but since you shouldn’t run these with an extension cord, it turned into a little cardio session, charging the tank by the house and hauling it back and forth. 😂

Garden fam: how do you clear your lines before the freeze? Teach us your ways. We’re always open to new tricks!

I’ve heard that once you plant your first native wildflower, something in you clicks and suddenly you’re hooked for life. Today we’re officially starting the shift from our current annual focused wildflower area to a predominantly perennial native space. It’ll take time. It’ll evolve slowly. It might even look a little messy before it looks magical. I know the wait will be worth every season. Seeds for this new chapter are from and

One of my favorite things about gardening is how it sparks inspiration in the most random ways! This year we prepped part of our sweet potato harvest in a new-to-us way: powdered. You definitely don’t have to do that for sweet potato gnocchi, but since we already had the powder on hand, we figured, perfect time to test use it? It was so much fun, and honestly, we both felt like kids again.

We also learned that sweet potato powder makes an awesome thickener for things like gravy (kind of like cornstarch!). And now our next experiment (besides perfecting this dang gnocchi recipe) is a purple sweet potato gelato. Stay tuned!

We’re pivoting a little earlier than planned with our “free bulk soil making in the suburbs” experiment, but I thought it’d be fun to show where things are at right now, 7 to 8 months in. Our whole goal was to build bulk, healthy soil using only free, locally sourced materials from the community, mainly wood chips from , with help from mushroom compost from , food scraps from , and coffee grounds from . We didn’t finish a full decom cycle in the bio-reactor, but the amount of breakdown we’ve gotten in just 7–8 months has been incredibly impressive. I hope our experiment nudges you to dream past the limits you’ve been taught to expect and start creating with the free abundance around you; your people, your community, and the materials most folks overlook.

All those garlic skins you’ve been tossing? Save them. Every bit of garlic has a use. We save all our skins from cooking, garlic planting, harvest, and preserving season, then grind them up for homemade garlic powder.

Core memory made right there! Took 3 years to get this baby! Fudged up recording us actually trying it. I can happily report that it was yummy! Now I can’t wait for next season!! This is so cool!

Sometimes accidents lead to the best blessings. Roll with it! Dance with nature and watch the abundance flow.

For anyone who thinks they can’t grow food because it’s winter or they don’t have a yard, let me introduce you to indoor gardening.

A lot of people imagine indoor gardening as a few sad herbs on a windowsill. The truth is, you can grow way more than that, and it’s not as complicated as you think. Just a few minutes a day checking lights and water is all you need to see real growth.

Over the past ten years, we’ve tried it all, DIY shelving, grow bags, kits, hydro. And what I’ve learned is this: it all comes down to the lights. There’s something so satisfying about snipping fresh greens just steps from your stove… Lettuce, green onions, microgreens, herbs.

The possibilities are endless. Don’t count yourself or your green thumb out just because you’re inside.

If you’re ready to start your own indoor garden, I highly recommend Vego. Thoughtful design, high-quality materials, reasonably priced for everything you get, plus easy to assemble. I stand behind it with my whole chest. Right now they’re having an End of Season Clearance Sale with discounts of up to 35% off, valid until November 7. Check the link in my bio and use these codes for an extra discount: 5% off the grow light with THEDISCOGARDENGROW5, or $10 off sitewide with THEDISCOGARDEN10OFF.

This one’s for my canner folk deep down in a canning wormhole. Iykyk. It’s the little things that make the biggest difference.

If your spring harvested garlic is starting to go soft or sprout, don’t stress boo, it’s not you, it’s your garlic. It doesn’t last forever on the shelf, and that’s totally normal, especially for hardneck varieties which usually start to decline around the 6 to 8 month mark post harvest.

But just because it’s past its peak doesn’t mean it’s trash. It’s just a sign you’ve got to put in a little extra werk to make it last through winter until next spring’s harvest.

For us, freezing it is the easiest way to stretch it out. We make little minced garlic nuggets for everyday cooking. You can also freeze whole cloves, pickle them, or preserve them in honey.

We’re expanding our covercropping!! I’m kinda addicted now. For winter, we decided to try some winter rye and crimson clover in a few recently empty beds. I’m really pleased with our fall cover, so I’m sure I will love the winter blend just the same.
