What a beautiful garden, Iโ€™m quite jealous. It has me wondering, do you mostly eat seasonally?



Hey Slug, yes I try to eat seasonally as much as possible. ย In the winter it becomes a massive challenge, but thatโ€™s what the garden is mostly for, since I preserve and store most of the food I grow so that I can eat well in the winter and not have to buy imported vegetables at inflated winter prices. Do you?ย

Sadly I do not, since Iโ€™m not at a point in my life where I have the resources to grow my own food, but gardening is a huge interest of mine and one of my main goals in life is to become self-sufficient (at least with what I eat.)

Amazing garden!

I've never heard of nazgul peppers. How's the flavor?ย 



Thanks, I shortened the name.ย  The proper name is Nazgul's breakfast.ย  It's got a floral and fruity flavour (like most superhots), and the fruit is a dark purple/black colour.ย  I like making blueberry sauce mixes with it, since the colours go well.

It is classic, my favorite garden bed of yours is the radish,dill, and beet because you let the other plants spring up in there. The visual is very beautiful and teaming with diversity. I am a fan of intensive gardening myself I find the pest have a much more difficult time.ย 


I have not seen those bees in my area, going to look them up. Beautiful picture.

Most of the bees I see are my own, carpenter, leafcutter, and bumble. I have yet to work on identify the native insects, I have been focusing on identify and documenting the plants and trees. I am sure some I thought were wasps are bees.ย

Definite classic, that's for sure!ย  I went with hugelkultur style beds (a form of permaculture gardening) for these ones, it's so much work to get installed but I really like the outcome thus far, and they're just going to keep getting better and more healthy as time goes on.ย  I'm anti-mow so my entire property is filled with wildflowers and immense numbers of insects and bees.ย  The bee houses I've installed are booming, and I think I need to make more for them.ย ย

I do too, but I guess "food" will have to suffice. Also, nice username. Bumblebees are special.ย ย
