Beat Procrastination

Procrastination is deferring tasks. Sometimes this is because we underestimate the complexity and the time it will take to complete, sometimes it is because the task is boring, but most likely because we just don’t want to take it on. Read more.

Raised Garden Beds

Raised garden bed is any garden area that is elevated from soil level. That includes anything from a few inches to a few feet. It is framed in some way, like using lumber or by using an existing item like a barrel or metal watering trough. Read More.

Tostadas

While there are still some nice veggies coming out of your garden and available at farmers’ markets, you might want to incorporate some into a dinner omelet. Add a side salad and this is a quick, nutritious, easy entree for a busy weeknight or a fun way to start the weekend.
