Reduce, reuse, recycle! (part1)  

30 days ago by whackjob72

O, Happy Day! (o, happy day!)  

34 days ago by whackjob72

Can I get an AMEN? While I was visiting some of the sites in my dear Portland yesterday with friends, my neighbor decided to pay someone to come in and pull up every invasive thing in his lawn. I had a word with him and offered to keep it trimmed, free of charge, on a regular basis, which he said I ...

I’ve got a dirty little secret  

48 days ago by whackjob72

My secret is not about dirt, either. I’m against non-native, invasive, noxious species. Those things that at some point we thought we wanted or needed but have now gotten out of hand and they just muddy up the waters for everything else that’s trying to grow and green. There are so many plants that ...

Some Very Good Signs  

64 days ago by whackjob72

First some updates: I have been plagued and kept busy by the small white butterfly I mentioned in my last post. My collard is not even the hardest hit, even though it’s the largest brassica in my garden. I have a small kale plant I put in last winter that I’ve harvested once already. The small white ...

WILD! Lettuce  

98 days ago by whackjob72

I’m a proponent of eating off the land. Whate’er Mother Nature gives to us to eat, we should eat. Now, I’m not saying that you should take your fork out to the timber and start nomming on the woodland creatures– that would be both dangerous and detrimental to plant life. What I am saying, however, i ...
