I have not updated this page in quite some time. I've been busy further my agricultural education. I am growing mushrooms now. Take a look.

Currently making plans to switch gears into medicinal mushroom production🍄. By a show of thumbs or hearts, or other reactions, who would be interested in introducing mushrooms into their health regiment? The ball is rolling and it's looking promising. I plan to grow reshi, coryceps, turkey tail, and lions mane to dry, powder, and make into tincture. Let me know what you think or if you have any ideas on how to advertise and market my proposed product.🤘

Time to get your garden in order. I will build custom raised garden beds so you can have fresh veggies and ornamentals this year. If you have existing beds that need to be cleaned up I can tackle that job for you as well. Send me a message if you have a project in mind.

Another garden bed filled. This client wanted fresh tomatoes and sweet peppers along with some fragrant herbs. If you have a garden bed that needs some attention or would like to get one custom built, shoot me a message and let's get to work.

First garden bed job of the year! My client wanted to enjoy some fresh summer veggies this year. So I filled up their beautiful cedar raised boxes (I did not build them, but I can if you like them). There's heirloom tomatoes, squash, zucchini, hot and sweet peppers, green beans, basil, rosemary, oregano, and parsley all tucked away in these raised garden boxes. I learned a valuable lesson in material estimation, as I had far too much topsoil delivered. Luckily the client was super cool about it and we decided to spread it around over some old ground up tree stumps. All in all it was a good day and I am happy to help another family get their own backyard garden going. If you would like something similar if your own backyard, shoot me a message and let's work something out.

Spring is on our door step. It's the perfect time to clean up your yard or even have some raised beds installed. I can transform your neglected garden beds to brighten up your outdoor spaces. Also, if you're interested in growing your own veggies this year, I can build and install custom raised beds or planter boxes. Send me a message if you have a project in mind for the spring time.

This one took some ingenuity. Jim (my tree service boss/friend) wanted to bird and critter proof his girlfriend's garden as a Christmas present for her... not exactly a simple task. He has a bunch of materials on his property that I repurposed to make the fencing and to create the canopy that the bird netting would secure to. I built 2 gates to provide easy access from either side of the property. She also wanted two new huglekultur beds (look it up) built from repurposed material as well. It is not the prettiest work, but I am happy to say it's functional and gives old materials a new lease on life. This is not a typical job for me, but helping out a friend and getting through the slow season is well worth it.

With cooler weather here now is a great time to have your garden beds cleaned up. I will hand prune your shrubs to insure healthy growth patterns that increase the longevity of your plants. I can also w**d, mulch, edge, or do anything else to beautify your outdoor spaces. Give me a message and we will figure out a plan to improve your properties aesthetic.

Went out to hampton today to put in garden beds around a client's deck. The grasses should be perfect to cover up the space between the deck and the ground, with the hostas filling out in the shade created by the tall grass. If you want garden beds tilled in or raised beds installed, give me a message. We can work out a plan. I'm excited to see how these plants enjoy their new home when the spring time comes to give them new vigor.

Not really the best before and afters. This job was more about the details than big alterations. I w**ded garden beds, pruned bushes, trimmed trees up from the sidewalk and away from the house. It's yard clean up season. Give me a message if you want a garden revitalization.

It's that time of year to get your garden in order. As the weather gets cooler, your shrubs and trees enter a dormancy phase. This is the best time to prune them. Cutting out all the dead and disease makes for a healthier plant that will last longer, as well as look better. If you don't have the time or experience to get your garden beds into shape, shoot me a message and we can schedule a day to make your garden beds beautiful again. Or, if you would like a new area to expand your garden, I can install new garden beds for you. Fall veggie planting season is here 🙌.
