Saving Seeds from Heirloom Vegetables What are “heirloom” vegetables? An heirloom vegetable is a non-hybrid, open-pollinated variety that has been passed down from generation to generation and, in some cases, can be traced back hundreds of years.

Seed Starting by Sandy Swegel We all know it’s a good idea to grow from seed. Every winter I fantasize about the amazing garden I could have if I just got started earlier. And every year I somehow end up buying plants that I know I could have started on my own with a little […]
Seed Starting by Sandy Swegwel Winter Solstice has come and gone, so it’s safe to start planting outdoors. And the first seeds to plant outside in cold climates are POPPIES! My farmer friend gave me the best advice on how to seed poppies: the night before a big snow go outside and strew the seeds […]
Seed Starting by Sandy Swegel The next few weeks are crucial for new gardeners. Every year in Spring, first-time gardeners buy some seeds and dig up a garden on the first really warm weekend and sprinkle the seeds out. Then they wait.

Seed Starting by Sandy Swegel It’s Time. Even here in snowy Colorado, it’s time. Even if some weird polar vortex has kept you housebound and you’ve lost track of what day it is…it’s time. Time for starting your perennials. Spring really is on its way. One of the interesting aspects of a culturally liberal place […]
Seed Starting by Sandy Swegel Yes, most of the country has been caught up in a polar vortex. Snow and ice are on the ground and you, the gardener, are stuck with nothing to garden. There are still two flower seeds you can start outdoors now! Poppies and Calendula. A friend who has gardened “naturally” for […]
Winter Sowing to the Rescue! I remember when I first started gardening. As I recall, I went to the hardware store and bought three packets of seeds which I planted that afternoon. I’m not sure how I followed my lust for seeds until today when my saved and leftover seeds now require two shoe boxes….and that’s after I […]
