​Friday the 13th comes with lots of superstitions and food growers have a few whacky ones. And after the start to this Spring, we are not pushing our luck!
Here's one: "Parsley and basil will only grow if you curse at them vigorously when planting. (Is it just me, or does swearing seem to go hand-in-hand with every one of my free-time activities?) Parsley, in particular, is difficult because apparently the seed must travel down to the Devil seven times before it germinates. But if you can finally get it to grow, it will show that you’re an honest man."

​One of the seed varieties that was part of our #GreatAmericanSeedUp seed share was the Parris Island Romaine. So far so good!
We hope those of you who partook this year are having some good growing luck! We know it's been a wet and wild season.
#SeedShare #ShowUsYourPictures #GrowFoodForThoseYouLove

When I was a kid (oh no...here we go), we had after school specials. You know the ones - shows that taught us latchkey kids of the world about kindness and being friends and not accepting candy from strangers. All good lessons. Around here we have "Dad School". Sometimes it's fun, sometimes it's hard work, sometimes the kids even like it. ​

​Alpaca picnic!! So this doesn't have anything to do with nothing, but the girl wanted to share!
