Testing your soil, but not your patience...June 28, 2014

 

Did you know that we test soil? Drop off a soil sample, and Bill will test it, recommend the necessary amendments, and send you home with them!

Bill is currently out of town until July 2, so if you provide a sample, it will be about two weeks before you get results. Thank you for your patience!

Moringa Trees available here...April 26, 2014

Moringa trees have several nicknames such as drumstick tree and horseradish tree, but "miracle tree" seems to be the most popular nickname these days. Described as easy to grow and wonderful to eat, moringa has a long history of culinary and medicinal uses. If you decide to give this tree a try in your yard, have a pruning plan, as it is reported to grow fast and tall, making harvest of its nutritious leaves and pods difficult!
