  1. Wanted to let you know I got a good deal at Walmart for granular fertilizer only cost me $2.50 per bag, on clearance I bought a couple of bags and used one on the strawberry plants to break down over the winter and it be available for them when they come up come spring and I will use the other bags for a second feeding as well as for next year usage. I took advantage and got as many as I could. The brand I got was expert Garden a 12-10-5 says it's for tomatoes and vegetables. I hope it will be good for the berries. I also got a miracle grow liquid fertilizer for use next year as well.

  2. I have to put fence around all my peach trees due to the deer. My trees were loaded I was so excited waiting for them to get ripe in the next 2 weeks, went out one day they were all gone
    Which has me puzzled no seeds were on the ground.
    Have anyone hint to what happened ?

  3. Thank you for reminding us to enjoy and appreciate small accomplishments. It’s easy to get overwhelmed especially looking at videos of the appearance of well maintained gardens. Sometimes I don’t even click on certain videos because it may put me in a bad headspace. Loved this!!!

  4. So glad to see your garden (and life) isnā€˜t about perfection but happiness. ā€žDo things in stagesā€œ will be my new garden mantraā˜ŗļø! Thank you!

  5. Look nice. I’m looking forward to seeing it in the spring when it all starts growing. Thank you
