Will post more pictures from last season soon! :D

Do you guys know the secret to loving salads every time? Make your own dressing! It's the end of scape season but if you can get your hands on some - fresh or frozen - here is my new favorite dressing. It's so good I could almost drink it straight from my blender.

Beyond that here are some other recipes --(Gumbo is made with many greens but you can adjust amounts for smaller amount and just use mustard as all the greens options.)

In Season: Mustard greens are at their peak from January through April. Many supermarkets carry them year-round.What to Look For: Look for leaves with a rich green color. Avoid any mustard greens that are wilted or yellowish. The smaller the leaves, the more tender they will be.How to Store: Wrap un...

6th generation "walking" onion. This traveled from Germany to Prussia to Canada to America with my family. They are the most fun thing to watch grow this year.

Hydroponic Santa Fe Peppers. In Hydroponics food grows faster, and has a longer season. We kept this pepper growing for 4 years instead of the normal 1 summer of most pepper plant lives. Have questions about our Hydroponics or Permiculture practices? just ask
