Snaggy Saturdays

I visited the Northwest Stream Center in Everett, WA this week. I loved the boardwalk nature trail, and guess what -- the folks here appreciate a good stump! Observed August 1, 2019.

Thank You, Blueberry

Happy Lughnasadh, everyone. I wish I had more to show for my gardening efforts, but it's been another challenging year with my physical and mental health, and I haven't been able to make as much progress as I would have liked. However, I was pleased to see that my neglected Peach Sorbet blueberry bush was loaded with fruit. I brought this bush home from the nursery five years ago, and it's unfortunately stayed in plant purgatory that whole time, despite my desire to get in the ground. I thanked it and said some kind words, which is not something I normally do. It's times like these when I remember why I fell in love with edible gardening.
