This weekend the garden will open on Saturday, May 31, if you are in the area, come on by. We will be having the Annual Running of the Bunnies this week. I figure since they run bulls in Spain we should do something dangerous and exciting too! I hope to have the camera there to bring all the excitement and drama to you all later.

Check out the items on the Farm Stand this week, all heirloom varieties and impossible to find at the store:

Seedlings: Heirloom Tomatoes, lettuce, arugula, Petite Marigold, Hyssop Blue, Summer Savory, Giant of Italy Parsley.

Fresh Lettuce: This week we have a Bib, Red Romaine, Mesclun blend of Lettuce from the garden beds in the front yard.

I'll be there giving tours and answering all of your questions. Please come on by!

Check out the Outer Banks Mom! She is a woman after my own heart. I love her blog it inspires me daily! I love the names of her birds, very funny.

Check out this new site I found. It's new, but has interesting content and I like the name of it too. Myearthgarden.com

Judy at Square Foot Garden made my pesto recipe! How cool is that! Check her out. I am so happy she liked it. Pesto is such a great thing to make and can. I am down to my last bit of pesto from last year, and I just love it on toast. I am big into Ezekiel 4:9 bread right now. It is made with the ingredients from the bible (Esekial 4:9) you should all check it out. Really healthy.

I have put up one of the sheds I have to make room for my outdoor kitchen. It's in great condition and I'm looking for $1500 or best offer. This is already 50% off list. I got it at my favorite shed place, Jamaica Cottage Shop. It's the 6x14 Weekender. It has a brown/gray metal roof and is made out of pine wood. If you're interested come to the open house. It's best to see it in person and I can answer any questions you have. It's fully assembled, cleaned out and ready to go. Here's the link to the shed I have for sale at Jamaica Cottage Shop.
