Tonight: Step inside our nursery 🌱
|
Hey Reader, Tonight we’re opening the doors to our nursery. Not polished. If you’ve been meaning to get your seeds started, this is your nudge. In Seed Starting 101, we’re walking through three simple but powerful ideas: 1. How to calculate how much you actually need to sow​ 2. Seed starting strategies that reduce overwhelm​ 3. A live seed starting demo​ ✨ Bonus: Dave will also show you how we root cuttings — one of our favorite ways to multiply plants without buying more. This is less of a lecture and more of a behind-the-scenes walk through our process. If you’ve ever wondered how small farms prepare for spring… this is it.
Bring a few seed packets. We’ll see you tonight. Grow abundantly, |

They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. Jeremiah 17:7-8 (on one who trusts and confides in the Lord) Trees dunked in mycorrhizal fungal water that will help roots grow Hello there, Reader! This week, 240 trees went into the ground at Bethany Farm. It happened because of a grant from ContourLines.org, an organization founded by Thomas Leonard, who believes deeply in something that is...
