Hi Bev...I use a mixture of liquid seaweed and liquid fish from Neptunes
Harvest...out of Glouster(s) Mass....buy it in five gallon pails...get free
shipping and a free t-shirt with their logo on it...each time I buy...:-)
I am getting away from working the soil in my beds and raised beds...am
leanin' towards the Ruth Stout method of gardening...now that I'm gettin'
older...70 at present...:-)
I live on a private road that my sons and I cleared about ten years
ago...also cleared our house lots...three. Road fifteen hundred feet long.
Did all our own sub-contracting when we put our houses in too. Soil here is
pure sand...have been working on it by adding compost and such. Also
surrounded by tall timber so I don't get as much sunlight as I need. My
stuff doesn't do as well as it should under these conditions...:-) Have a
small 12' by 24' hoophouse that I extend the growin' season with also.
Franklin

Franklin, we call his the Homestead List, so we here are all
homesteaders. You, too. Compared to homesteaders of a hundred or two
hundred years ago we are imitations. In the end, labels aren't useful
for much beyond posturing. We are what we feel we are.
