Excited to return to not watching Jimmy Kimmel because I don’t want to watch Jimmy Kimmel and not because the government told me I can’t watch Jimmy Kimmel

Disney lost $4B in one day.

Tell me again how movement organizing doesn't work.

This is a white-banded spider. these little creatures can camouflage to look like the plant they are sitting on so they can ambush their prey, which is usually pollinators. This little monster was right by the yellow flowers from my pigeon pea plant.

I’m going to miss all the greenery & bright colors, but it’s time to plan for fall. Hope you’ll join me!

Sungold tomatoes never make it in the house because they’re so delicious. This is probably half of the harvest because I ate some as I was picking them. 😆

What do you grow that never quite makes it inside?

Garden update part 2. I wish I could collect bigger bunches of flowers, but I feel so bad about taking them away from the pollinators. Anyone else go through this?

Join me for part 1 of my mini garden tour/update at the end of July.

I’ve been battling groundhogs and a rabbit (RIP) in my garden this year. Check out my latest video on YouTube (@NJGardenTeacher) to see an update on my newest beds and the damage that little stinker did. Please subscribe and let me know how your garden is growing.

Do you have a favorite yogurt recipe? Tomorrow is a food prep day & making my own Greek yogurt. This recipe makes 5.5 cups, but I have a gallon of milk, so I’ll be doubling the recipe. This cookbook (Homemade Pantry) from Alana Chernila is my favorite & where I get most of my recipes.

In this video, I’m finishing up my brand new flower bed, and taking you along every step of the way! #gardensky #gardening #blackgardeners

Worm care tip: freeze your scraps, fluff the bedding, and bury the buffet.
Happy worms = rich compost = thriving garden.
It’s science… and a little bit of love.

Follow along as I build a brand-new flower bed using what I already had. No fancy supplies, no big spending, just creativity, determination, and a whole lot of love for the garden.

I’m in my 50s & currently navigating perimenopause, spinal degradation, chronic pain, & reduced mobility with my hands. #Gardening isn’t just a hobby for me. It’s an act of resistance, & therapy with Mother Earth herself. It’s so important to be able to find tools to adapt & modify gardening.

Growing peas update! 🫛 I can’t wait to see what the next four weeks brings. Hopefully plentiful harvests!🫛 #gardensky #gardening #blackgardeners
