A lot of people these days seem to think that growing their own food is a difficult and specialized skill beyond their capability. This is especially true among those who have grown up in urban and suburban settings. Many may not even have a relative who has produced their own food. But the fact is that humans have been growing food for more than 10,000 years, and there is a broad cultural memory of how to do so that can be tapped if one just slows down a bit and listens.
About This Site
This blog is a record of my various gardens in and around Shepherdstown, WV over the past few years. They are classic potagers and the goal has been to produce food for the kitchen year round.
As a blog, it shows the most recent entries first, in reverse chronological order. If you'd rather read the blog in chronological order, from the beginning, click on the link below.- Read Blog From The Beginning
