Raspberry Ridge Gardens Raspberry Ridge Gardens is an evolving experiment in "unlawning"- the act of transforming lawns into fertile, edible landscapes.

The farm creates food resilience for its owner and pollinators, and it markets fruit, veg, herbs and eggs when available.

Hello everyone! The winter season, while slow, is the time of dreaming up and planning our next permaculture adventures. We think of last season's failures, the successes and the new things we'd like to try.

Last year was a strange one- or, perhaps, the new normal. Warm temps in March forced the budding of our peach and nectarine trees and then the hard freeze killed them. From four trees, we picked just one peach. Then the rains came. And persisted. I have never seen that amount of insect/slug damage. We had to reseed and replant multiple times. Our black raspberries suffered considerable damage and our cherry crop was completely lost to rot.

But the weather improved. Our red raspberry and blackberry harvests were some of the biggest yet. Our new golden raspberries, lavender and Asian pears flourished. And we ended up with enough fruit, veg and herbs to stock our freezers. Diversification is the key. If Mother Nature says no to something, there's always something else available to accept her yes.

For this season, we plan to expand our golden raspberry, black raspberry and asparagus patches. We are adding hazelnut, persimmon and elderberry. We are also adding French tarragon, Moroccan mint and edible pansies to the mix. We plan to continue to grow more okra and Scotch bonnet peppers for our West African friends. Before the tariffs hit, we went out and bought lumber for more raised beds and have finally purchased some cattle panels for a sturdy, resilient trellis system.

Thanks for reading. Who would like to share their plans for growing season 2025? We would love to hear from you!

Peace!

Hello everyone! Some of you may have noticed the recent media blitz discouraging average folks from tending a backyard flock of hens on the basis that it is too expensive of an endeavor. This narrative shows that 1) the mainstream media are simply mouthpieces for industry execs that want you to keep buying their eggs at inflated prices to bolster their quarterly earnings, and 2) they want to reduce the enterprise of raising hens to the economic yardstick of "cost per egg."

We don't need to be told what to do. We can think and act for ourselves. Raising your own hens or purchasing eggs locally takes us out of the global food system - a system that is often based on treating these amazing creatures in a manner that is unnatural and cruel.

As a permaculturalist, the beautiful eggs that come from raising hens are the cherries on top. I view my hens as partners in a holistic endeavor who build soil and minimize weeds and pests. If we take this approach, then it doesn't matter what the "cost per egg" is- creating a system that gives you and your family your own nutritious food is invaluable.

Now that my rant is over, I would like to say that I have 2 dozen organic eggs available. I would like to sell both of them to one person. $8 for both. The first person to message me and be able to pick up this morning can have them.

Thanks for reading!

Hello everyone! In the face of impending food system instability with the promises from the new administration, I would like to encourage everyone to at least consider growing some of your own. With pesticide and bacterial contamination, inflation and supply issues, and the knowledge of supreme inequality baked into our current global food system, creating your own food resilience will save you money, improve your health and provide you with an activity of passion and education. There will come a time in the near future when folks will be very thankful that they have embarked on this journey. For any of you or your loved ones who are interested in creating resilient, edible landscapes, I am available anytime to chat or show you what I do when the weather warms. Grow food- not lawns!
