Today was a busy day! Almost all of the perennial beds got mulched after mowing (don’t worry, there’s still tons of long grasses and clovers for the bugs). Our plums are setting fruit, blueberries and serviceberries are ripening, and I’ve confirmed that the birds know about all of my haskaps. Tomatoes are climbing, pumpkins are running, and my replacement peppers are looking happy, but I’ll be more excited when I start seeing them fruit.

What’s growing on with you all?

    A general rule of thumb is aged 1 year, especially if you don’t know what they use or if they board/breed horses since there’s a lot of variability there. If the part of the pile you’re digging into had a good worm population that’s a good sign for that section, but if you get into another area and the worms vanish then don’t include that in what you take
