The Beginning

This post has dual meanings.  It is the first time I have ever attempted to blog; let my blogging adventure begin!

 AND..... Sunday, I started over 500 heirloom seeds (not even half of what I will plant from now until September) to begin my annual trek toward harvesting the fruits of my labor.    
 I have a love for heirloom vegetables-- there is something beautiful about their unique flavor palates, vibrant colors and imperfections; things you never get with GMO varieties.
 This blog will tell a story about food from start... to finish.  From seed to plate.  
 Above are flats of tomato (7 types), pepper (hot), leek and eggplant seeds. Below are collard and mustard greens, and a cold hardy lettuce mix inside my cold frame.  Who says you cant eat well in the winter?!   
While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night shall not cease 
Genesis 8:22
