Garden

  • From bats to spiders, nature has plenty of garden helpers
    Looking for some help in the garden? Many of nature’s most useful critters lie literally at our feet, underappreciated and ignored despite their ability to eliminate insects, condition soils and pollinate plants.
  • Tomatoes in need of staking, pruning for best results
    A month from now, don’t say I didn’t warn you.
  • Planting beans
    Sow bean seeds now for a July harvest. Bush beans are easy and productive, and additional sowings over the next six weeks will provide a summer-long supply. Pole beans need a trellis but will yield over a longer period.
