1. November in the Garden

It’s hard to believe Thanksgiving is here once again. We’re still planting fall crops, mostly because it was too hot in October to plant (we used to plant in September, then October, these days November). Partner that with wildfires (three of our friends lost their homes to fire) and we’ve got crazy times. Still we’re thankful.

We’re thankful that we can grow year-round in Southern California. We’re thankful for  fresh compost to prep garden beds, and for 14 varieties of kale that just went in the ground yesterday. I’m grateful for radishes, leeks, and lettuces that are sending up sprouts and true leaves this week, and for sugar snap and snow peas that have grabbed on to their trellis this week. Most of all we’re thankful for you! You keep Gardenerd going, so Thank You!

We’ll be out of town for the holiday, but in the meanwhile, check out a new YouTube video and some great Thanksgiving recipes below. Happy Thanksgiving and…

Happy fall gardening,

Christy
