I have been blown away by this Hugelkultur garden. I thought it would struggle in year 1. I thought everything would be stunted or run out of nutrients, since it’s mostly wood and all. I couldn’t have been more wrong! The kale is glorious, we’ve harvested 10+ summer squash already and there is so much more growing. Even the ground cherry plant and tomato are thriving. The flowers are blooming, the onions and beets are forming nice bulbs, and the cucumbers are forming tiny little fruits, before any other cucumbers that I planted in other areas of our garden. • • And to be honest, I have I’m not 100% sure why! The mushroom compost we used on this bed actually contained herbicides, despite sourcing organic compost. I saw absolutely zero damage from it in the hugelkultur bed, but noticed clear signs in the curling leaves of tomatoes and cosmos planted in containers. Despite the herbicides, despite this bed being in its first year, it has thrived. I think the magic of this bed has been the combination of having both awesome drainage and amazing moisture retention, which is hard to achieve simultaneously. Based on my experience, I fully recommend this method as a permaculture method that allows success in the first year, if done correctly. No-till takes time, back to eden takes time, I’m seeing that in the rest of our garden, but this bed took no time at all! • • In just about a month and a half, it’s already a lush and healthy garden, and every day it puts a smile on my face to watch it grow and flourish. • • I just shared a full tour and update on the Hugelkultur bed over on our YouTube channel (link in bio).

COMFREY HARVEST 2019 > 2018 > 2017 Growing up growing plants. This girl loves helping her mama harvest. Almost as much as she loves finding “wormies” Cultivating a deeper relationship with my daughter each time we cultivate medicine together. Grateful for this life we live. #JMinthegarden #wheresthepausebotton #shewassosquishy #overallsforyears #futurefarmer #thisiswhatafarmerlookslike #womenwhofarm #childrenwhofarm #letitgrow

Can you believe we made this transformation happen all in one day? ⬅️ Swipe left to see the before ⬅️ • • This is a community garden that I had the pleasure of helping to transform. Along with a number of amazing volunteers and community members we flipped this garden from completely overcome by weeds, to full of seedlings, young plants, and lots of future food! • • I recorded the entire day, including a full time lapse, and I can’t wait to share the whole story with you in the pilot episode of Extreme Garden Makeover, coming August 1st to our YouTube channel! A preview for the series is available on our IGTV. • • Do you have any questions you would like me to answer in the full video?

We planted some Yukon Gold potatoes this morning right next to one of our hedgerows!

The garden is transforming. It is so vastly different than it was just a couple weeks ago when this picture was taken. In some ways it is transforming naturally as dandelions come up everywhere, but in many ways it is changing with a lot of hard work, exhausting days, and muscles so sore that it hurts every time I get up. • • I am an achiever-oriented person (shoutout to all my type 3s on the Enneagram). Because of this, when I lookout at the garden I tend to see all the projects that are unfinished. The seeds that need to be planted, the dandelions that need to be pulled, the mulching that needs to be done. The list goes on... • • It's so important that I push myself to look back, to acknowledge all the work that has been completed. The plants that ARE in the ground, the seeds that are germinating, and the huge expansions that we have made this year, including a giant hugelkultur bed that didn't exist two weeks ago. • • So on this Monday morning, I am going to intentionally reflect on the goals I have reached, on the many things I have completed and made progress on, and then continue moving forward, excited to reach new goals and accomplishments. • • Share with me the goals you've reached in the comments below & let's encourage each other to keep on going with excitement instead of stress.

Potato flowers are seriously underrated. Did you have any idea they were this beautiful? • • They’re so beautiful! And there is nothing like homegrown potatoes. So full of flavor, so filling, and so much better for you! We’re growing a lot of potatoes this year, they are a huge staple in our diet, especially since we have a plant based diet. We eat them for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and prepare them in so many different ways. Another awesome part of potatoes? They store really well, so they’re a great homesteader staple for those trying to live more sustainably through the winter. • • Potatoes, like many other crops often grown on a large scale, have a bad reputation. People think of them as unhealthy, similar to soybean, corn, and wheat. We need to realize that it’s not the whole foods that are the problem, it’s the way we’re growing them, processing them, modifying them, and spraying them. How can we combat this? Growing food on a small scale in our own backyards, or in our community gardens, at our schools and churches. There is so much space to grow! Let’s start using it, and grow all the potatoes!

This little lioness loves the garden. She explores the plants on the prowl for little bugs and things to chase. She especially enjoys when I’m planting or weeding, because I’m low to the ground and she can get extra snuggles. She rolls all over the wood chips, giving herself little back scratches. Most of the time I’m a little annoyed and concerned for my plants, but at the end of the day it’s pretty nice to have such adorable company. I guess it’s only fitting for Basil the cat to love the garden. • • Any guesses on why we named her Basil? Guess in the comments below.

The garden is awakening from lots and lots of good sleep. These four beds that you can see here are all brand new! They are about 60ft by 6ft. They are all no-till with either wood chips or rotted hay/bedding. When I brush aside the wood chips I see lots and lots of worms and dark, moist soil, which means the ground is getting ready for lots of plants. The beauty of these no-till methods is that year after year they continue to improve the quality of the soil and produce an even greater and healthier yield. Do you use no-till methods in the garden? Do you have any questions about them? Comment below! I would love to spark some discussion about no-till methods to gardening.
