Hardcore Sustainability - Urban Homesteading
Cynthia, is a gem! I call her the Queen of Organic Gardening, and she's hardcore when it comes to sustainability. She has a lot of wisdom to share in my latest episode:

Re: Hardcore Sustainability - Urban Homesteading
Thanks Dstack,
Learned a few things from the interview. I had always heard that Breadfruit could only be grow in the farthest south & Keys and that it was too hot here for Comfry. She had both in her yard.

Re: Hardcore Sustainability - Urban Homesteading
I'm glad you brought that up about the Comfrey Craig. How funny! I've heard that too, but I have it growing as well! I've had a couple of failed attempts to get it started in the ground, but I finally got it with the help of dappled light and mulch. Fortunately I had early success in the planter on top of one of my rain barrels, and I can now use that as it get's larger to propagate from by division.TCgardening wrote:Thanks Dstack,

Just this morning I filmed Cynthia, and her bee mentor, extracting honey from her hives. I hope to have that up on the channel in a couple of weeks, but yesterday I made the big announcement in form of this promo, that Cynthia and I have partnered up so that she has her own series. Even if she and I aren't on the same page on a couple of things, she has an abundance of knowledge and wisdom!

DStack,
Now I have no excuse for not growing Comfrey for my wife, Ann. It's really good to see your new endeavor growing! I will sign up for your site and recommend to my garden friends.
Best of luck!

After being furloughed during the pandemic (even before that, in 2018 I was cut to contract status by the company where I worked in television production for 17 years), a great company has just given me a great job offer, so I'll be going back to a full-time salary position, as the Creative Video and Design Specialist for the local board of Realtors.
But I will of course continue adding content when I can, and now Cynthia will be adding a lot of great content.
