Interesting how the compacted soil in this pathway has lifted and split after multiple freeze-thaw cycles. This is why you leave your clods to break down over winter! . #freezethaw #soilstructure #soilbuilding #gardensoil #Greenthumb #instagarden #gardenersofinstagram #frommygarden #organicgarden #urbangardening #instagardening #organicgardener #urbangardens #organicgardens #urbangardeners #urbanorganicgardening #gardenhomestead #urbanhomestead #homesteadgardens #backyardhomestead #compost #composting #newgardener #gardening101 #gardeningknowhow #gardeningforbeginners

#greetthegrower day whateveritis... 10? Anyway, it’s “you”. So here I am, not exactly Mr Photogenic, but fairly typically surrounded by Brussels sprouts and with compost bins in the background. Woolly hat by @pollensweaters. . . #Greenthumb #instagarden #gardenersofinstagram #frommygarden #organicgarden #urbangardening #gardenideas #instagardening #organicgardener #urbangardens #organicgardens #urbangardeners #urbanorganicgardening #gardenhomestead #urbanhomestead #homesteadgardens #backyardhomestead #vegetablegarden #vegetablegardening #vegetablegardens #compost #composting

More flowers for #greetthegrower ! This is a “Nelly Moser” clematis. It lived with us for a few years but clematis are not fond of our acid soil and they don’t survive well for us. It’s like you folks on chalk or limestone trying to grow rhodos! . . #Greenthumb #instagarden #gardenersofinstagram #frommygarden #organicgarden #urbangardening #gardenideas #instagardening #organicgardener #urbangardens #organicgardens #urbangardeners #urbanorganicgardening #gardenhomestead #urbanhomestead #homesteadgardens #backyardhomestead #flowergarden #flowergardens #flowergardening #gardeningknowhow #gardeningforbeginners #clematis #nellymoser

#greetthegrower day 9: #flowers This was a quickie direct-seeded #flowerborder to cover an ugly fence at a rental house. Mostly #cosmos and #Californiapoppies, there were also small #dahlias and #zinnias out of frame to the right. . . #Greenthumb #instagarden #gardenersofinstagram #frommygarden #organicgarden #urbangardening #gardenideas #instagardening #organicgardener #urbangardens #organicgardens #urbangardeners #suburbangardener #urbanorganicgardening #gardenhomestead #urbanhomestead #homesteadgardens #backyardhomestead #flowergarden #flowergardens #flowergardening

Shout for #internationalwomensday to all the amazing women gardeners and farmers I have learned from and with, starting with my Mum in the Uk and locally including Helena, Wendy (seed saving mentor) Erin (permaculturist) Norma (back to the land in the 1950s), Kathleen, Lucia, Kathy, Samantha and others, none of them on IG. These suspicious-looking goats were on Wendy’s Glade Farm a few years ago. . . #Greenthumb #instagarden #gardenersofinstagram #organicgarden #urbangardening #instagardening #organicgardener #urbangardens #organicgardens #urbangardeners #gardenhomestead #urbanhomestead #homesteadgardens #backyardhomestead #containergardening #containergardens #vegetablegarden #vegetablegardening #vegetablegardens #flowergarden #flowergardens #flowergardening #herbgarden #herbgardening #herbgardens #compost #composting #smallscalefarming #seedsaving

Repost from @clausdalby I’d love to do something like this around our front steps, but the deer would make mincemeat of the tulips, at least. Still, I can dream 😀 . . #Greenthumb #instagarden #gardenersofinstagram #frommygarden #organicgarden #urbangardening #gardenideas #instagardening #organicgardener #urbangardens #gardeningislife #amateurgardener #organicgardens #urbangardeners #gardening4pleasure #suburbangardener #urbanorganicgardening #containergardening #containergardens #flowergarden #flowergardens #flowergardening #springbulbs #daffodils #narcissus #tulips #flowers

Lots of people doing seed starting at the moment 😀 I’ll be starting mine next week, using this light stand that I built years ago out of 1x2s and scrap plywood. It does the same job as the expensive commercial light stands, uses commonly available 4ft shop lights (or proper grow lights) AND it folds up to store away flat when you’re not using it. If you’d like to build your own - it’s very simple - the plans are available free on my web site.
