Morning chores can get monotonous. But just often enough a fun new season comes around- like getting to water pasture seeding in the sunrise!

Kudzu- sometimes referred to as the w**d that ate the South. While it can make our 60 foot trees look like topiaries, it is currently quite a blessing. We have not seen rain in weeks and the pastures are just about bare. Turns out kudzu is very high in protein. So twice a day we head to the very edge of the property and yank down enough vines to fill the Gator. I am thankful for this "w**d" that is currently sustaining our cattle!

Next year's basil plants! When your basil goes to flower, leave the flower heads on one plant to collect next year's seed. The tiny black seeds form inside little pockets under the flowers. There are multiple ways to collect them as they dry and every plant gives a ton so share with friends and they, too, can have their own plants next year!

Two reasons I love late summer/fall gardening... most of the heat and the bugs are gone! It's not too late in most climates to get in some greens, carrots, turnips, and other cool weather crops. Give them at least six weeks before your first frost date and most will even take a light frost.
These are our yardlong beans and zucchini plants I started 4 weeks ago. They germinated in 4 days, are thriving and there has been less heat pressure and absolutely no borers. These will both carry through to the first frost and produce abundantly.

We have a big banana tree in our food forest which, considering our climate, will probably never produce a banana. But it is fun to look at and a few times a year we do a banana leaf dinner.

Cut large slices of the leaves, wrap up meat or veggies, and either tie with a smaller strip of banana leaf or turn the packet over so the flaps are down and won't open in the oven. We bake ours at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes or until the meat is done. You can open them up (carefully!) and everyone can assemble what they want and add sauces for extra flavor. It is yum!

Truly, we have a lot of leaves, so if you live in the area and want to try this, give us a call and stop by to grab a few.

Spend a pleasant hour gardening and visiting!
We have a meeting here at the farm and can't make it this time, but I know you will enjoy meeting nice people and smelling delicious herbs if you head over to Ashtabula and help!
