gardening

Every year, I plant a little garden at my house. This year, I decided to add sunflowers. They are very beautiful to look at (you can see them in the picture--they are from my garden). However, the sunflowers I grew this year were not big enough to be able to harvest the seeds--there's always next year. But, if you do have giant sunflowers at your house, and you have always wondered how to harvest

Being a vegan means my diet consists of fruits and vegetables. So, you would think it would be like second nature for me to be a successful gardener. Last year was my first attempt at gardening, and my garden was OK. Nothing spectacular. This year, I decided to try something different. I built a mini greenhouse (cold frame) on my raised garden bed. My vegetable plants have been growing like crazy.
