“If you are not killing a few plants hither and thither, you are not really stretching yourself as a gardener. You see our beautiful tables of plants in the front. Believe me, I kill more than a few during each growing season! The important thing is that we grow and become a little better each year." -Greg, Farm on 7th

Thanks for another year of memories! What a privilege to share the garden experience with so many of you. We also appreciate the privilege of hearing the joyous laughter and seeing the ear-to-ear grins of the children (and seniors too!) when they see and hand feed the ducks and ducklings.

We hope you enjoy this gardening season! Happy gardening from the Farm on 7th!

We received a question about whether any of the plants can be grown in pots, which reminded us it's a good time to do a re-post of last year's container garden test video!

We had quite a successful garden and all the plants shown in the video are available again this year. The containers are all 10-gallon fabric pots which breathe and help make the soil less hot in the summer heat.

Different pot types can be used, but you should use something light colored to reduce the impact of the sun on heating the container and the soil.

Regardless of what type of container you use, some type of reservoir is required to hold water since you don’t ever want the plant to be stressed for water. As long as the reservoir does not run dry, the plant will be able to wick up water from there.

Remember, it’s important to regularly fertilize in container gardens for good production.
