Cyclospora couldnโ€™t everโ€ฆ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ When you are in char Cyclospora couldnโ€™t everโ€ฆ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

When you are in charge of where your food comes from, you never have to worry about the next public outbreak again.

Growing your own food is really & truly not that hard. And the resources that exist are in abundance (like my account and others). 

Start with containers. Start with vertical gardening. Start with some raised beds that you make or buy. Start with the ground in your own backyard. 

And if you donโ€™t have time, donโ€™t want to learn or donโ€™t want to bother, but knowing where your food comes from is still important, support a local farmer who is growing food. 

My produce stand is open weekly. I garden organically. ๐Ÿ’š If you donโ€™t shop me, find a farmer close to you to support. We do this to be a food resource for our community. Because we know the importance of growing food. 

โœจHyperlocal food networks are coming!!โœจ

Hereโ€™s why I think itโ€™s not workingโ€ฆ First of all Hereโ€™s why I think itโ€™s not workingโ€ฆ

First of all, my entire garden is setup to defend itself. Iโ€™m an organic grower. 

My go to pest control โ€œtreatmentโ€ options are used sparingly. (BT, Neem, DE & Insecticidal Soap) I prefer hunting and unaliving. ๐Ÿ˜‰

I intentionally plant companion plants to protect my main crops. And I plant a BOAT LOAD OF THEM. 

But hereโ€™s the part none of us can control: weather, the right amount of watering at all times (due to weather), stressed plants. 

And once our plants are stressed, they send out signals that pests are tuned into. 

Itโ€™s not that your companion plants arenโ€™t doing their job. Itโ€™s that your crops signaled stress and invited the pests in. 

And if you donโ€™t have enough beneficial insects taking up residence, the pests will multiply rapidly. Itโ€™s what they do best. 

Donโ€™t give up on companions. They are working. Your plants stress just might be louder. 

Itโ€™s time out your ninja clothes on and start manually defending your garden. ๐Ÿฅท

My peppers are failingโ€ฆ Are yours?? Iโ€™ve heard f My peppers are failingโ€ฆ

Are yours??

Iโ€™ve heard from several of you who are also in or around my growing zone, that you are also experiencing pepper failure. 

I feel like we are all having soil problems but also for us all to have soil problems at the same time, affecting the same plant speaks to a larger problem. ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿง
I meanโ€ฆhow are we all having the same problem??

Iโ€™m no scientist but this is bizarre. 

I will be fertilizing with some fish emulsion and some calcium to see what kind progress I can get. 

What say youโ€ฆare you having this issue??? What are your thoughts??
