How to grow garlic

Hi ya’ll! Come along with me to see how to grow garlic in my raised garden bed. This year I tried planting hard neck and soft neck garlic. It’s super easy to do. Read on to learn more about growing garlic.

I feel like garlic is one of those expensive items at the grocery store that is over looked. It’s so easy to grow and you can yield a lot from one crop. So, you save money and get lots of garlic! It’s a win – win!

How to Grow a Loofah Sponge

November 22, 2019 by Stephanie 6 Comments

How to grow a loofah sponge and my first time experience growing them.

So, how do you grow a loofah? I thought loofahs grew in the ocean.

One day I was taking a shower and I noticed on the side of my shampoo bottle that it said you can grow your own loofahs. Huh! Amazing. I learned something new, so my creativity side said, “Lets grow some loofahs!” and that’s what I did.

This is my journey on how I grew my first loofahs in my backyard. I explain what loofahs are, how to grow them yourselves and how to use them.

Stay tuned till the end I have a YouTube video if you’d like to watch it.

DIY Pallet Herb Garden

A simple way to repurpose a pallet is to turn it into a patio diy pallet herb garden. This diy pallet herb garden took only a few hours to make with simple tools already at home. It’s great to have fresh herbs on hand throughout the warm weather. I picked the few herbs that I use the most in my cooking. Furthermore, getting the kids involved in planting and growing their own food is great to help them learn too.

How to Make Maple Syrup

March 2, 2019 by Stephanie 6 Comments

How to Make Maple Syrup

Have you ever wondered how we get maple syrup?

I’m happy that I live in an area of New York where I am able to make this sweet treat happen in my own back yard. I only tap one tree in my yard. It’s a small operation but it’s just enough for the kids. The kids get involved and learn about the maple syrup process.

I learned how to tap a maple tree a couple of years ago at a local farm. I was so excited to try it at home. The funny thing is we only have one maple tree. Go figure! Anyways, we still proceeded. At my amazement, we tapped the tree and it worked! We had maple sap flowing in no time.

Check at the end for a YouTube video tutorial and a FREE bonus!
