People are needed to tend to the food bank garden at rare every Wednesday from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. The garden grows vegetables and fruits that are then donated to Cambridge Food Bank programs.

PVC Pipes Verticle or Horizontal Garden Growing Alternative especially if you have a shortage of growing space. Use bungee cords to hold on a fence and use a plastic freezer bag with a drip hose for moisture. Use coconut fiber and your tomatoes and berries will be uber delish.

Grandmas Rhubarb Ice Tea Cure All During the first part of summer my grandma would make this delicious drink. It was always in the fridge until she ran out of rhubarb. Give this recipe a try and enjoy its unique flavour. You will need: 8 cups rhubarb, cut into 1 inch pieces 8 cups filtered water Some grated rind of 1 orange and 1 lemon plus the juices. 3/4 cup sugar, maple sugar or raw honey 1 pint fresh strawberries, mashed Simmer …
So many great recipes for rhubarb and this is one of them.

🌱 Reep Green Solutions has sprung up a nifty idea to restore "pollinator patches." Bloom(in) Boxes support our native plants – and are intended to replace turf grass and lawn, which do little to build a dynamic ecosystem. Check them out for Mother's Day!

Prize Winning Pickles My mother’s siblings were taught to grow and take food from the earth. I recall my mom and all her sisters would send and receive seeds on a regular base. I remember watching them all working a garden together they resembled a precision military detail undertaking commands from the general, my grandmother.

The best pickle is the one you like the best.

My counter top Aero Garden is perfect for starting herbs and veggies. Basil, oregano, mint, some cherry tomatoes, red rocket and leaf lettuces. After I grown my balcony garden herbs and vegetables I just grow lettuce, dill, cilantro and parsley which is the perfect amounts for daily harvests like toppings for my egg salad sandwich.
