Henry’s Hobby Homestead A hobby gardener who’s going all out this year in the hopes of sharing my passion and hopefully bountiful produce.

I’m not here to make a profit but hopefully help with my expensive hobby and build on what I can grow and offer you.

I’m thinking I’m going to end this account and just integrate my planty stuff back into my personal page. Send me a friend request if you miss me.

Farmers markets are closed for the season and my garden is just starting to boom. Based on the amount of seeds I started, I should have been swimming in veg. The weather was unusual but thankfully not anything like some other climates have dealt with. I will continue to make it my goal to grow as much as physically possible. I think in the future, selling at a market is not as profitable as giving away excess or learning how to preserve as much as possible. I didn’t make any $ this year but what I have learned is invaluable.

One of these things is not like the other, garden version.

That escalated quickly. When you put five seeds in each pot and have to up-pot, the pots literally multiply exponentially. But it started out with a very tiny seed…they are looking a little leggy, I hope they turn out ok.

My Rainbow Swiss Chard has been so buggy, the chickens have been the only ones getting to try it. I let them grow and finally got to try them this morning. Olive oil, homegrown garlic, lemon zest, perfection.
