This past week was spent at the Spencer’s Garden Show event. We had a booth there with our herbs and heirloom vegetables. They hold this event each year as a way to kick off the gardening season. This year we had lovely weather that always inspires all of us to garden. It was a very successful show!
Other very exciting news is that we have been listed on the Friends of Earth International’s website as a farm that is free of neonicotinoid and other systemic pesticides that harm not only pollinators and other beneficial insects, but also leave their poisonous residues in the soil, contaminate any water that moves through that soil, and also affect other creatures from earthworms to song birds. You can check out their website at this link Friends of Earth . We are honored to be listed there, along with a number of other plant businesses.
I’m off to work in the greenhouses. The crew arrives in 10 minutes, so I’ll keep this short for today and plan to write another post later this week when time allows.
Oh, one last thing…if you are a Canon City area person, I will be writing a weekly article for the Daily Record and it will come out in the paper on Wednesdays. This week’s article is about growing greens indoors on your countertop or planting them now outdoors in your garden.
Talk to you soon!
