I have a vegetable garden in Midwestern Northern Illinois. It is organic, has raised beds, and I am using double digging techniques (actually bastard trenching), along with French Intensive concepts. I broke ground in December of 2009, and I hope that if you are a beginning or struggling gardener that this blog will be an encouragement to you.

I think the gardening year is officially over.
I picked some radishes about a week ago and had some radicchio surviving. But since then we've hit zero degrees and has consistently been very cold, so I think that's it till spring. I didn't have time to cover my spinach and garlic with leaves, however we have about six inches of snow and ice which will serve perfectly well to protect them. It is when they are exposed and not covered that they suffer. With the bad weather I've focused some creativity on some art projects. i made and installed this wall fountain. It will have a switch, a little light and a circulating pump. I used Moroccan Tadelakt plaster.
