Perennial planting time!


Hey everyone,
Dogwood Valley Greenhouse has some beautiful fall-flowering anemone and aster plants just budding up nicely. Several varieties of the ferns, lots of herbs, colorful coral bells, and the gauras are beautiful in the fall. Now is the ideal time to plant perennials: cooler evening temperatures (and daytime too!) will develop good strong root systems for good winter survival and spring bloom. Build up your perennial garden now!

Also I’d love to share this amazing documentary with you available to watch free until the 10th. Symphony of the soil is a super informative movie about the importance and diversity of the soil beneath our feet. Our food future is alive in the dirt!

Kefir and cherry tomatoes


Hi guys,
I’ve added free kefir grains to anyone who has been interested in trying to make this delicious cultured milk product. Similar to yogurt but yogurt only has 2-5 stains of beneficial bacteria whereas kefir has 30 beneficial strains of bacteria and yeast which aggressively colonize the gut by destroying pathogens. Kefir is also incredibly easier to make than yogurt. Order your grains or give me an email if you have questions!

Also Wayne Diller has added cherry tomatoes, get them before the frost does!

See ya thursday

Coffee!

Lard is IN!


The Market is OPEN!
This week Fox Farm has Lamb chops and ground Lamb as well as her country bacon and my favorite – lard!

Are you cooking with lard?
Lard is an incredibly stable fat compared with most vegetable oils, ideal for frying! Also a great source of vitamin D and Omega-3’s.

Also on the market: butternut and spaghetti squash, kohlrabi, jalepeno’s, potatoes dying to be mashed, cabbage, beets, and the most gorgeous garlic braids you’ve ever seen in your life. Watermelons and apples to boot.
