Planting Guide – Starting Zucchini from Seed

By Mavis Butterfield on May 24, 2016 · 15 Comments

I have a love/hate thing going on with zucchini.  On one hand, the first several harvests are awesome–like the beginning of a new relationship.  I can’t get enough of the stuff.  Then, comes the end of the season, where I have grilled, sauteed, frozen, baked and pickled my way through so much zucchini I can’t Read More >>

I picked up some sweet potatoes at the farmer’s market the other day and I was brainstorming ways to use them up. I was settling down for a cuppa and wishing I had a little baked something to nibble on with it, when I knew just what I’d use them for. I whipped up this Read More >>

I’m a rhubarb super fan. Rhubarb is awesome! I’m assuming if you don’t know this it’s because you’ve never had it properly prepared in the most delicious recipe.
