~Quinoa salad~
Full of flavor and nutrients
Ingredients ~ for three servings one cup quinoa, one cucumber, 10 ounces of tomatoes, good amount of fresh parsley and dill. The dressing 3 teaspoons olive oil, fresh juice of one lemon 2 to 3 cloves of fresh garlic salt and pepper and half tablespoon olive oil for roasting the quinoa.cook quinoa in a rice cooker 2 cups of water, I used beef broth once cooked spread onto a baking tray. Drizzle with some olive oil and bake at 400°F Fahrenheit for 20 to 30 minutes, chop cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions you can remove the insides of the tomatoes, so the salad doesn’t get too soggy. Chop all the cold ingredients together. Let the quinoa cool for a few minutes before adding the veggies add the dressing together with the dish.
It taste best if you enjoy the salad freshly made, but it’s also great salad for a meal prep. You can store it in the fridge for up to three days. Enjoy!

Onions should be planted in the spring, and they have a moderate growth rate. They can be planted from seeds, transplants (seedlings that have just sprouted), or sets (small onion bulbs that are about to begin their second, final year of growth) I usually start my Onions this time of the year indoors using a heat Matt along with grow lights. This makes it possible to plant outdoors early at the end of March

Today December 21 ~ The winter solstice, also called the hibernal solstice, occurs when either of Earth’s poles reaches its maximum tilt away from the Sun. This happens twice yearly, once in each hemisphere (Northern and Southern). For that hemisphere, the winter solstice is the day with the shortest period of daylight and longest night of the year, and when the Sun is at its lowest daily maximum elevation in the sky. Each polar region experiences continuous darkness or twilight around its winter solstice.

The nature of design: the Fibonacci sequence and the Golden Ratio. The “golden ratio” is a 1.618:1 mathematical ratio, and the number 1.618 is known as “phi.” Golden ratios can be found in shells, plants, flowers, and animals, among other places. It is believed to be one of the strongest and oldest connections between math and creative arts. This summer, this giant sunflower came up in my garden on its own, and all summer long even with all the grasshopper pressure. It was able to form seeds from this. The design of the seeds shows very well, the golden ratio.

Ya Ya variety carrots are a smooth skinned, uniform carrot that performs all season long. Incredible flavour in summer that gets even sweeter after frost. These are especially well adapted to the coastal BC climate and will perform throughout the Pacific Northwest including Utah Ya Ya’s strong tops are good for bunching. Great performers in my gardens this summer! -crops.

Most mornings, I’m on my mountain bike because I live one block away from the Wasatch front mountains. I ride most mornings this is the way I wake up and greet the day. It’s glorious. However, once in a while, you can get a flat tire or in the case of my tubeless tire,I had a broken air valve ~ well it’s not like it used to be pull out the inner tube patch it put it back in and pump it up with the tire pump. These days with a tubeless tire you have to use a air compressor put in sealant, it’s a bit of a task that’s how things have changed through the years but I was able to get it back on the road the following day which really pleased me all I can say is my whole life has been in one way or another sitting on the saddle peddling the wheels ! !

This is the best time of the year, why because of effort into the vegetables you have grown that can be shared with others. This was a dish shared at my daughter‘s 30th birthday party last week using only olive oil, salt, pepper, and a little Italian seasoning grilled on the barbecue, roasted to perfection yum!

Even though the grasshoppers are thick and they are eating down so much of the produce we still try to get up very early in the morning to harvest food for our CSA customers and my family. This summer has been a challenge because of so much insect pressure my next move will be to put up insect netting to keep those hoppers From chewing things down

The peas take about 15 days from soaking them for 12 hours and then putting them in a potting medium,soil medium. These delicious greens will go to my CSA customers tomorrow. peas.

This morning on my bike ride it was very cool outside and I couldn’t help but noticed all the mountain flowers that were sprayed along the hillside so on the way back I just stopped and collected a handful because of our beautiful weather we’ve had in June and our intermittent rain storms,nature has blessed us with these colorful, wild mountain flowers.

Garlic scapes are the tender stem and flower bud of a hardneck garlic plant. (Hardneck garlic is the kind of garlic that typically grows in Canada and the northeastern U.S.) Scapes first grow straight out of the garlic bulb, then coil. When harvested, they look like long, curly green beans. This year seems exceptional for garlic

Snow report!
Snow basin March 7, another 13 inches in the last 48 hours outstanding ski season & over 150 inches for the base here. 600 total inches for the season at Alta and Brighton and counting has put the season into the top 10 all time snow years. In the 80’s we saw several winters that exceeded 600 inches and in the winter of 83 topped out at over 800 inches. We want to see the reservoirs fill up and have an abundance of water for this summer. Thanks mother nature.

This time of the year watering becomes critical. You need to keep lot of moisture going into the soil, especially carrots, mini wobbler sprinklers have an awesome coverage and perform well.#organicproduce#Irrigation#Water#Sprinklers#miniwobblersenninger.
Yesterday we planted approximately 6 pounds of potatoe seed that will yield several buckets of potatoes like last year. We had a giant grasshopper infestation that forced us to harvest the potato a little bit sooner however, we’re not in that situation this year and we can let them mature ~potatoes grow well in Utah soil.
Planting potatoes in the garden our Utah soils are especially good for potatoes. They grow well I am planting these potatoes in the same place as I did last year however, I had to harvest the potatoes earlier because of a giant infestation of grasshoppers hopefully this year we don’t have that same pressure.#potatoes#utahgrown.
Greenhouses are a wonderful thing however they are only so strong with winds of gusts up to 50+ miles an hour my Greenhouse lost its plastic and it took me about two days to put the new stuff back on, but we’re back in action. Let’s rock.
Got a chance to ski today at the world famous Snowbasin what a great way to feel what are wonderful earth has to offer Earth Day of course!#earthday#skiing🎿#snowbasin.

Bring on the onions! Well we try to get the onions in the ground early into the year. This makes a big difference for overall growth. Both are regular dry onions and green onions are part of our CSA so go to my link and check out what the season is going to be about and if you’re interested, you can join us.#organiconions#communitysupportedagriculture.
So here at Arrowhead Farms, everything has taken off and the train is moving. We are planting many vegetables to get ready for our CSA this summer. These organic tomatoes grow so well delicious tasting and have performed well through the years. We have six different varieties that will do so well in our gardens. Let us know if you want to join our CSA for weekly produce this summer. All you do is download or view the link for a PDF file that shows what we are doing and prices for the season. Contact us with your email and name and any comments ~Thanks.
Sitting outside tonight on the retaining wall, I was sitting next to my friend, and between us this small bumblebee who is working in the lavender plants to get pollen nectar. It was awesome listening to the bee, working so hard and buzzing. Also if you are keen to listening in the video there were bats in the background, clicking, communicating, nature is a wonderful subtle thing. Happy Fourth of July.
Peonies belong to the flowering plant family known as “Paeoniaceae,” this type of plant usually grows in parts of the world such as Asia, Europe and North America. Email me at [email protected] flowers for sale $18.00 Thanks
2023 springtime snow pack melt runoff I live very close to the mountains and in the mornings you can hear the roar of the water that comes from Taylors Canyon. It is a amazing sound that you would not normally here during spring time, but because of the large amounts of snow that we’ve had the snow melt run off, creates a marvelous sound.#springrunoff#springtime#wasatchmountains.
Since April of this year getting plants into the ground was more or less lost because of cold temperatures and snow in northern Utah. We continue to seed many varieties of vegetables, these new plants will be in the cell flats between 15 and 20 days and then if everything works out planted in the ground by the end of May. When you farm organic vegetables, one of the important aspects of growing vegetable is succession planting so seeds are constantly planted to keep vegetables growing for a 20 week period.#organicfarmingpractices#seeds#vegetables.
So I’m always amazed at vegetables that are harvested their colors how they form during the time that they’re in the ground and what you get as as far as the mature product nature is beautiful nature is never dull.
Where did the saying “Corn should be knee-high by the Fourth of July”come from ? The farmers almanac says knee-high by the Fourth of July is an adage farmers once used to gauge how their corn crop was doing. If the corn plants had reached knee-high by the fourth it signaled a good yield at the end of the growing season some sources trace the saying to colonial times. Happy 4th everybody!
Sunday, May 29 we have had two days of the most beautiful rains that are desperately needed to help all of our vegetation and vegetables to be watered springtime with rain becomes a marvelous thing#rainyday#springtime
Mason bees early pollinators I’ve had this hive on the side of my shed for over five years these solitary bees are early to hatch out from the hive they are very docile and help to add to the process of plant pollination
