The Advantages of No-Dig Gardening
Winter digging looms ahead. Well, for some of us, anyway. Personally I never do any. No, the moment I read Gardening without Digging by A Guest, first published in 1949, I was hooked. Mr Guest estimated that, even with the need to produce more compost, No-Dig reduced labor by at least 40%! Lazy?

How to Grow and Harvest Lavender
Lavender is one of the best-loved herbs in the garden, and for good reason. Not only is it attractive and scented, this versatile plant thrives in some of the toughest of garden conditions.

The posts are in great shape but the horizontal beams are falling apart and completely off the posts. So not only did I upcycle the old fence posts for building a blackberry trellis but I installed some old aluminum gutter to grow loose leaf lettuce, which I rescued two 12 foot gutters from a neighbor who was just going to throw them out in the garbage.
