Fruitful During Winter

Winter growing is fun indeed. You can’t beat fresh tomatoes, peppers, turnips, and greens! With a little planning and care, even in the coldest months, you can create a fruitful mini-garden right in your backyard. Imagine stepping outside to harvest juicy tomatoes that burst with flavor, alongside crisp peppers, turnips, and broccoli that add healthy carbs to your winter meals. Not to mention, the greens—kale, bok choy, and Swiss chard—are not only nutritious but can also thrive in cooler temperatures, providing a continuous supply of food.

It’s cold but Spring is on the way

In this video, I have an update on my winter sowing journey. I am experimenting with three different methods: sowing directly in the ground, utilizing milk jugs, and placing seeds in various containers, as well as using a cold frame for protection against the elements. Each method offers unique advantages, and I’m eager to see how they perform throughout the season. The winter sowing containers are a surprise that I am particularly excited about, and I will share my observations and results in a future update, detailing the progress and any challenges I encounter along the way. Stay tuned!
