Boy meets Zucchini

Samuel

The most proliferous plant in our garden this summer had to be the zucchini plant with the tomato plant as a close second.  I do not understand the super powers of the zucchini.  It can hide in the garden, I am sure it has the ability to make itself invisible if it wants to.  That, [...]

August 2012 Garden update

Sunflower

Once more, I am late getting our garden post up.  It has been a busy month, yet again.  This definitely has been a season full of learning.  Well I guess with everything there is always room to continue to learn, but this was our first serious attempt at gardening.  Everything up to this point was [...]

July Garden

I am a little embarrassed that we are this far along in August and I am only now posting my end of July garden pictures.  Between gardening, hosting guests, playing with the children, housework etc.  my poor blog has suffered. So without further adieu I give you… The July Garden!!! This is the small garden which will [...]

Our June Garden

I know I have been missing from around here.  I find it hard to believe that Father’s Day was my last post.  We have been very busy and hopefully I’ll soon have some new posts up describing much of what we have been up to. Today I wanted update you all on the garden… June [...]

Back to Eden Film and Gardening Method

Last night I stayed up late watching this film and I am so excited about it I just had to share it here.  Whether you garden a tiny plot or a massive one you need to watch this film! If you are frustrated with tilling, pest control, irrigation issues this movie is going to WOW [...]

The Orchard, the Vineyard,and the Berries…

Traditionally, when someone would use the word orchard they would be describing a piece of land set apart for the use of fruit trees.  Today people often think of apples when they hear the word orchard.  Here at the Old Path I guess we have taken a more traditional approach and mixed in various fruit [...]

Spring on Our Little Homestead

Buds

Has spring sprung on our little Homestead?  This year we were teased with unseasonably warm weather in March, and here we sit almost hours from May desperate for spring in all its glory.  I think we can safely say spring is here.  I may not be a fan of the mud that spring tracks in, [...]

Grapes

081

This years garden was a bit of a disappointment,  perhaps that is an understatement.   Yet I knew not to expect much,   Joel finished cancer treatment the end of May and then in June he started going twice a week for therapy instead of once a week.  (With Therapeutic Riding he is now up to 3 [...]

Garden questions??

I have some questions for all those with green thumbs out there.  Over the last 2 years Dave and I have been trying to get our garden up and running.  With Joel’s treatment it has taken a backseat again and again.  We are finally starting to work on it.  Much of what we do this [...]
