RE: Reflections: Permaculture, Food Forests, and "Back to Eden!"

Up before 🌄 (here) @cicisaja and finding your comment was a pleasant and welcome surprise. How are you doing "over there?" 😊

Here we would absolutely love to be in the garden, but there is snow on the ground. 😉 I don't know this for sure, but in your part of the world perhaps you have never seen snow. At least not where you live anyway. In the high country here, most people find it is not safe to plant much before the end of May. Our Memorial Day national holiday is a commonly used time for gardeners here to consider planting. Before that and the likelihood of frost damage (or death) is considerable.

Yes, at some point, I may write more about our particular experience. I captured many pictures and notes on our preparations from last summer. As always, the time commitment is a challenge for me. We'll see what happens!

Thanks again, my friend, for stopping by! 😊

Aahh.. that's why many homesteaders build a greenhouse to keep their plants growing. I think there is reason why some fruits or flowers only haevested or blooms in particular time or seasonal.

Anyway.. if you really going to create post about your garden.. don't forget to join steemit monthly journal garden challenge by @simplymike.. it'll be amazing if you take part of it too.

I'll be happy to read more about your garden journey too

Yes, my dear friend, having a greenhouse would certainly be a big plus! At the moment, we have neither the funds nor really adequate space for one. We are also challenged for optimum south-facing angles in our home, as that is best here in the high country. To get the most possible sunlight, for the longest possible time.

Thank you for mentioning @simplymike's challenge. I will have to look into it. At the moment, one of the thoughts I have had is I am not even sure which are the best tags to use for posts like this. For this post, with the time I had available, I just made my best guess ...

I think you already chosem the right tags and here is the link to mieke's challenge
