Showing posts with label Gardens

Happy Earth day! Over the years, I’ve written several blog posts to share how my family honors our earth by showcasing what we are planting or events we’ll be attending. There are many resources available on the EarthDay.org site and I hope you’ll visit and find a way to plug in and help where you are. This year, I’m focusing on shining a light of food resources and farms that are doing their part to help stop food scarcity. One such company is Nature’s Path Organic Foods, so I made Sunrise vanilla yogurt bowls to celebrate Earth day and to share a little more about Nature’s Path and their recent annual Gardens for Good Program.

in , , , , , , , , by Linda A Kinsman, Friday, January 03, 2014

While I put away my Christmas decorations and tell myself I simply MUST organize my closets, I’m dreaming of warmer days, flowers in bloom and veggies on the vine. That can only mean one thing: it’s time to order my seed catalogs! I limited myself to just 4 per year and I change them up each year by adding a couple of new ones. 

This year’s choices are:


Burpee:

So imagine my happiness when I saw that HGTV's website had added a new feature: HGTV Gardens. Yay! It is full of tips and tricks and knock your socks off pictures, like this one:
