The garden is walled and smaller and I hope to be able to improve the soil and grow the majority of our produce on a small scale. I intend to make raised beds with polytunnel principles. Stay with us and see what happens on the next step of our adventure.

Perhaps you will have another ... or can you take it with?<BR/>Weather here is still hot and very, very dry, even though other parts of the USA have had, disastrously, too much rain. We can also feel just the very slightest touch of autumn for a brief bit on some mornings, but it is yet too far away for those of us who don't care for this much heat.<BR/>Barbara in Georgia USAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21090954.post-76756840501659575082007-09-07T15:44:00.000+00:002007-09-07T15:44:00.000+00:00I did not spin this yarn but bought locally source...I did not spin this yarn but bought locally sourced yarn and then dyed it with a variety of sources as a colour study...when I saw the apples I found out what the finsihed item was going to be.Downshiftingpathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00046640631739567120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21090954.post-37684777996546138562007-09-07T14:43:00.000+00:002007-09-07T14:43:00.000+00:00beautiful colors!
