Seed Companies FREE OF MONSANTO TIES

This list is possibly the most plagiarized piece of garden writing on the internet right now. However, I think this issue is important enough to just grant it eminent domain. I was careful to check and cross check this list against all of the other similar lists available, and culled any company with even remote ties to the MegaCorporation that I sincerely feel poses the greatest threat to our health, welfare, freedom, national security and possibly even democracy: Monsanto. Over-reacting? Well, we will let you do your own research and come to your own conclusions:) In the mean time, I encourage everyone who gardens - no matter how much or how little - to purchase your seeds from small seed companies who are helping to save the biodiversity (and genetic integrity!) of our FOOD CROPS. What could be more important?

Here are safe from Monsanto seed companies.

Healthy Crunch: Windowsill Sprouts are easy to grow!

In case you missed the article in the January/February Mansfield Magazine:

Sprouts are turning up everywhere - from wheat grass shots in our smoothies, to micro greens on posh servings at upscale restaurants, and in Essene bread in our local grocers' freezer. Once the domain of bohemians and hippies, these nutrient packed gems are no longer limited to 'bean sprouts' or 'alfalfa sprouts' in health food stores; packaged varieties ranging from mustard to radish and clover are now commonplace in the average grocery produce mart.


It is no wonder sprouts are so popular - they contain high levels of disease-preventing phytochemicals, as well as significant amounts of vitamins A, C and D. They are recognized by nutrition conscious consumers and health care professionals as a "super food”, and major organizations - including the National Institute of Health, American Cancer Society and Johns Hopkins University - have reinforced the benefits of sprouts with studies to validate these claims. The greatest reason to enjoy sprouts as a regular treat in salads or side dishes, on pizzas, or in breads is simple though: they are delicious!

Sprouts are best served absolutely fresh, and the easiest (and most economical) way to guarantee the very freshest of ingredients is to grow your own. When winter nights are long and days are cold, and you find yourself craving some healthy homegrown 'crunch', make a simple sprouter from an old canning jar and some screen; add seeds, rinse, then eat! You can order seeds to sprout (pick organic and/or untreated) such as alfalfa, mustard, broccoli, radish, or cress, or start with whole grains or legumes found in the bulk section of a natural foods store: mung beans, lentils, peas, wheat, spelt or quinoa are all easy to start.


You will need:
A one quart canning jar with a ring
Scraps of clean screen material
Seeds to start: between 1 Tablespoon and 1/8 cup per jar (rule of thumb: the smaller the seed, the fewer you need)


Instructions:
Trace the lid of a canning jar onto a scrap of clean screen and cut to fit inside the ring. Add a conservative amount of seeds to the jar (they expand with water and grow!), then secure the screen and ring by tightening it firmly over the opening. Fill the jar half way with water and allow the seeds to soak at least four hours, then drain and rinse. Keep the jar on your kitchen windowsill and rinse the seeds frequently, even after they begin to geminate. Be sure to drain the jar well after each rinse. In a few days you will see signs of sprouting. For greener sprouts, allow more sun exposure; for juicy, pale sprouts, keep the sprouter someplace dark.


Experiment with eating your sprouts at different stages of development, or trying them baked into breads. Sprouts are also wonderful in stir fry recipes or in soups. Our family's favorite: breakfast burritos with both spicy mustard and crunchy mung bean sprouts! Enjoy this healthy revolution: your body – and taste buds – are sure to thank you for joining in!

Ready, Set, Garden!

If it is hard for you to imagine digging, tilling and planting right now - while the ground is frozen solid and the days are short and cold - well, you aren't alone. I haven't poked my nose outside to do anything more than tend the animals these days. The winter garlic, onions and chard are established and need very little care, the new pears are set, and we have had sufficient water to not have any worries about winter drought either.



But as I look at my 2012 day planner, I know it is time to shake this case of holiday-laziness off and get my arse in gear. Winter is no time to ignore your gardens my friends; it's not for nothing that they say "the August garden is January's child"!



During the nastiest of days, get out ye ol' paper and pencil and start planning: decide where new beds might go, pencil in plans for crop rotations (even if they are destined to be tucked among shrubs in the front yard!) and, for alla you dreamers out there like me: moon over seed catalogs and circle your "want it, need it and gotta have it" lists.



On "not so nasty days" (which are largely a matter of definition depending where you live), man up, toss the gloves on, and be sure everything is ready for the first few weeks of the thaw. Work your compost. Be sure your beds are mulched, weeded and otherwise prepared for new plantings. Clean up any autumn messiness. Get tools repaired and organized. Plan ahead for any animals you might add (could 2012 be your year for a hen?!).



Most importantly, be sure to stand in the middle of your garden space - be it a teeny urban courtyard or sprawling ranch - hand to hip and with head slightly tilted, and DREAM!



"The August garden is January's child", so build yours with a healthy mix of hard work and creative dreaminess. Ready, set, garden! Xo

Bathroom Shower Designs New in pairs

Bathroom - Bathroom Shower Designs New in Pairs. for those of you who want to use the shower in the bathroom and wants to install itself and more comfortable for your bathroom when you use it.
First, like any other experiment, we should first gather all the different tools and materials that we will use in installing the device. If you’re thinking of what tools to gather, well, you need a Teflon tape, rag, adjustable wrench and a pipe-mounted handheld showerhead. Now we know the different tools to be used. For the next step, look at the nut of the showerhead. This is found above the showerhead. The flat sides help in unscrewing the showerhead easier and faster. Using the rag and placing it in the nut will prevent having the nut from having scratches. Next, loosen the nut by counter clockwise turning it with the use of the adjustable wrench. Remove the old showerhead and the plumbing tape and clean off the excess water found on the pipe.

After the removal, don’t forget to clean the pipe. For the next step, we’ll be doing the installation of the new showerhead. In order to do this, prepare the showerhead and wrap its end with the Teflon tape. Wrapping it with the tape helps prevent leaks but make sure that is tightly covered with the tape.

After taping, we can attach the new shower. There is an available instruction to follow for connecting the hose and the wand to the showerhead. After following those instructions, tighten (clockwise direction) the showerhead on the pipe with the use of the hand. Just make sure that you don’t over tighten it. With the use of the adjustable wrench, you can now tighten the nut.

After the installation, make sure you clean all the parts and dry it. You will need to install the trigger hanger which is located at the desired location you want. Just stuck it on the wall then press it firmly.
Voila! You now have a new showerhead! But, this is still not the end. Check if there are any leaks by turning it on. If there are leaks, make some revisions on the connections. The cause might be because it wasn’t that tight enough. Retest the showerhead. If there are no problems, you can now enjoy your newly-installed showerhead!

Now you know that installing the showerhead isn’t that difficult. Additional tip is that it is better to use the hand rather than tools. It is safer and faster. Well, enjoy your new showerhead. Have fun!

2012 Homestead Wish-List!

As we continue to grow our lovely bohemian homestead, we always need schtuff for the gardens. If you have any of the following and want to see it reused/composted/repurposed responsibly, then feel free to give us a ring, or just drop it off on our porch (small stuff) or driveway near the barn (leaves and large stuff). We are SO appreciative of friends who continue to support our efforts to Guard'n Our Planet!

1) Leaves and yard waste (please no twigs larger than cigar diameter or grass clippings where the grass may have gone to seed)

2) Newspapers and large, flat cardboard (broken down boxes) for sheet composting new beds (sorry, no feed sacks anymore, they often have plastic liners and also create weeds)

3) Rinsed yogurt containers (or butter type tubs) at least 8 oz.

4) Clean 5 gallon buckets (from paint or sheetrock)

5) Kitchen scraps in sealed bins (vegetable scraps only). If you want to bring scraps to us we will happily provide a bin!

6) Leftover rocks/stones or concrete blocks from landscaping projects

7) Wine bottles,,,drink up! :)

8) Egg cartons

Thank you so much!! Happy New Year to all; may 2012 be full of love, health, prosperity and wonder!!
