✨PRO TIP: local/fresh wood chips are the best!

19/07/2025

🎏Fish scraps! Do you use them in your garden? I’m so glad I’ve discovered using them!

They are an excellent natural fertilizer to use in your garden for both for flowers and vegetables. As I’m amending spaces for my fall garden this week, I’ve been burying baked fish bones into my garden. You can put them in raw but make sure they are buried pretty deep because you’ll certainly attract unwanted guests. That’s why I bake mine 😂. You can also make amazing fertilizer tea with fish bones.

You just need to dig a hole, place the fish in, and cover it up! That simple. My local grocery store saves filleted fish bones for me that would otherwise end up in the garbage and I put them into my freezer until I need to use them. If this interests you, ask your local fish counter! Or if you cook fish regularly just freeze the bones until you are ready to use them.

Fish scraps provide excellent sources of phosphorus and calcium and many other good minerals. This beautiful red snapper went into my fall brassica bed. The Native Americans taught the pilgrims to bury fish alongside corn to ensure bountiful harvests. As well as their three sisters technique of planting corn, beans and squash together. Cool right?!

Today I’m crushing the mussel shells from our dinner last night and sprinkling them around my tomatoes. I’ll show you simple that is to do in my next post. Since they have been cooked, there is no smell, and will provide the soil with minerals and calcium as they decay.

Nature is rad!

✨THROWBACK 2019 SPRING GARDEN🌸✨

This was one of my favorite spring gardens. After multiple years of planting and waiting we were rewarded big time.

Featured here are Lupins, Apricot Tea Rose, Perennial Sweet Pea, HF Young Clematis & Belle of Woking Clematis.

If you are into flowers and creating bouquets or vases I cannot recommend perennial sweet peas enough to complete your vision. They do not have the scent of an annual sweet pea but they grow like champs spring to fall.

What’s is our September garden harvest dinner?

Brandywine tomatoes, rosemary, peppers and our absolute favorite, fingerling potatoes! So good with some local lamb chops 🐑🌱.

Potatoes & tomatoes are two of my favorite things to grow. Their taste is unbeatable to anything you’ll ever buy. This year we discovered you can grow all of this fresh food in grow bags, thanks to awesome soil.

Our favorite dressing for fresh potatoes is capers, lemon, EVOO, S&P, garlic and rosemary & served with a Greek salad.
