2022 Dzen Garden Superlatives
The first year I had my garden my good friend and “Fairy Gardenmother” Jess gave me the advice to keep a little garden journal to jot things down in when they came up so I could remember what to do (and not do) the following year.
Simple Summer Garden Recipes
Late summer is the season of abundance in the garden, and I have been hard at work making use of as much of my bounty as possible. So hard at work, that actually, if I’m being honest…I’m a little tired of gardening right now. Is “Garden Fatigue” a thing? If not I’m coining the term.
5 Ways to Eat More Kale
I love kale…everyone knows this about me, right? For years I drove around with an “Eat More Kale” bumper sticker on my car, I own a “Drink More Kale” shirt (I even put an “Eat More Kale” onesie on my baby registry because how could I not?), and now that I have a garden, I love growing my own kale.
My Favorite Simple Summer Garden Dinner
