Our last food donation of potatoes came from a 225 square foot plot amended with mycelium filled wood chips, compost, ammonium sulfate, and elemental sulfur. They were also grown with love and the vines were happily eaten by rabbits, grasshoppers, Japanese beetles, and other critters. This plot yielded 170 pounds of Russet potatoes. We are thrilled we were able to make this donation to our local food bank.

Our resident red-tailed hawk has fortunately kept our rabbit population in check and unfortunately, it has eaten too many garter snakes. Nevertheless, we love seeing this majestic creature regularly visit our garden.
