Aren't onion blossoms beautiful? I planted a grocery onion that sprouted. One bulb went into my salad. But I am saving the blossom for now. #gardening

Bill Mollison didn’t invent permaculture—he trademarked a mash‑up of ideas, often obscuring indigenous systems. For example, the milpa, a Mesoamerican planting pattern, sits at its core. Naming it as “permaculture” erases lineage. Honor the source, not the brand. #truth #gardening #permaculture

I had a bunch of lemons to use up from the tree out back. So I lacto-fermented them with herbs from the garden. Fermented lemonade anyone? #Blackfoodsky #foodiesky #homemade #homecook #Foodsky #cooksky #Food #Foodie #blackfood #soulfood #blackfoodie 🍽️ #fermentation #homecooking #recipe

What kind of spider is this? #garden

Farmers market haul. I went late, just as they were about to close. They basically gave me everything 2 for 1! What should I do with these eggplant? #Blackfoodsky #foodiesky #homemade#Foodsky #cooksky #Food #Foodie #blackfood #soulfood #blackfoodie 🍽️

Today's pretty flower. It is a solanum, related to eggplant and tomatoes. #bloomscrolling #flowers #nature

It is mugwort. But I will use it like wormwood, to bitter up beds. Let the #vermouth making begin! #wine #blackfoodie

What kind of spider is this? It crawled into a glass I use for developing roots on plants. Yikes! #gardening

Is this wild arugula? #vegetablegardening #bloomscrolling

Is this wild watercress? #gardening #vegetablegardening

I know this isn't a cat feed, but looooook! This is the cat that doesn't eat cake. Her name is Simphiwe. It means, 'I have her as a gift.' #catlife #felinefriends #meow #catsofbluesky

Happy Juneteenth, Everyone!!!

I saw this bug on my basil plant this morning. Is it beneficial or bad? #gardening #vegetablegardening

Has anyone used ash from barbecuing in the garden? I have some ash from lump wood charcoal. #gardening #vegetablegardening

I found a fairly shaded and cool spot for my lettuces: arugula, wild arugula, and escarole. If this area works, I will put up some vertical garden pockets and see what happens. #gardening #vegetablegardening

Do you call this an air carnation? #plants #plantenthusiast #gardening

Help me identify this plant. Is it an obcordata? #gardening #plants #plantenthusiast

Thyme is probably my favorite herb. I might use these flowers as garnish for my sweet potato quiche this weekend. #gardening #vegeteblegardening #herbs #bloomscrolling

My patio garden is coming along nicely. But, I can't get any edibles to take in these vertical gardens. Only decorative plants. #gardening

I got all my perennials in pots now. #herbs #herbgardening #vegetablegardening #gardening #veggies #yum #flavor

I call this shrimp plant. What do you call it? #mayblooms #bloomscrolling #flowers #nature #gardening

Late start this year. But, I have started. #gardening #vegetablegardening #veggies #herbs

This was my soil blocker this year, a plastic shot cup that I cut the bottom off of. Am I frutal or cheap? #GardeningBluesky #gardening #GardenersWorld #gardeningfeed 🌱 #GardeningSky #VegetableGardening #NewGardeners #SelfSufficiency #Homesteading

Is anyone using the paper towel method to sprout seeds this year? #GardeningBluesky #gardening #GardenersWorld #gardeningfeed 🌱 #GardeningSky #VegetableGardening #NewGardeners #SelfSufficiency #Homesteading

I brought a grapefruit that had some sprouted seeds inside. So, I decided to plant them. And they decided to grow! #GardeningBluesky #gardening #GardenersWorld #gardeningfeed 🌱 #GardeningSky #VegetableGardening #NewGardeners #SelfSufficiency #Homesteading

I am trying wine grapes in 20 gallon grow bags: chard and cab sauv. Has anyone done this? Tips? #GardeningBluesky #gardening #wine #GardenersWorld #gardeningfeed 🌱 #GardeningSky #VegetableGardening #NewGardeners #SelfSufficiency #Homesteading
