Wakame is a Brown seaweed and is a great source of calcium, potassium, selenium, and therapeutic polysaccharides, especially fucoidan. It will retain its quality for two to three years if kept dry and away from light and heat.

A new burger recipe!

Mix a tiny bit of Kelp Frond Powder into your burger meat; the burgers will be so much juicier and hold together better!

Our potatoes look great this year! We really like this fingerling called Amarosa. It is oh, so tasty! The pink flowers are pretty too.

We also grow German Butter Ball and another fingerling called Russian Banana.
We used to grow Almond Potatoes (another very tasty fingerling variety), but the yield kept going down, so we stopped.
What are your favorite kinds?

Look who followed us in from the garden!

The amazing Praying Mantises are beneficial to our gardens, as they eat all kinds of other insects (the beneficial ones too though..)

Some of the herbs that are flowering in our garden right now: Pleurisy Root (Asclepius tuberosa), Eryngo (Eryngium yuccafolium), Yerba Mansa (Anemopsis californica) and Hops (Humulus lupulus). What a wonderful time of the year!

It is starting to look promising for the grape harvest! We grow Concords, Canadice, Flames, Himrods and Suffolk table grapes, and recently also Tempranillo, a wine grape. We make wine with all of them, but eat a bunch too of course!
The second photo is of a new asparagus planting, now 3 years old. We hope to harvest some asparagus from these plants next spring, but have let them feed their roots so far. Asparagus is a super nice crop for our climate, as it gives us so much food in the spring, when there is not much other vegetables.

Garden abundance! The Yellow Crookneck squash plants and lemon cukes are giving us food every day now, and the Chestnut and Delicata winter squash will feed us all winter. These are our favorite kinds of cucurbits. We have been saving seeds from the Chestnuts from almost 30 years, and the seeds we planted this year were 20 years old!

We had a great time harvesting and drying Sargassum for , who use Sargassum to dye their collection of beautiful garments. This seaweed is considered to be an invasive specie. It is very beautiful though! We are also impressed by how OlderBrother created such varity of colors, and how great they look together.
