Gardening is easy but there are always lot of little tips to share that make it even easier and a lot of fun.Annapolis is such a nice area and very similar to our weather-wise since we are both right on the Chesapeake Bay.Glad to hear you have two hives. Hope they have lots of sources for pollen and nectar.It is sad that the FDA has become somewhat of a joke. As you are finding out they are "in the pocket" of big agri-business. What it boils down to is that each of us is responsible for finding out as much as we can to protect our health. It can be a bit overwhelming at times, but anything we can do to protect ourselves is definitely in our best interest.Sure glad to have you as a reader! And - by the way --- how did you find my website? Thanks so much for commenting. Theresa Hi Sandra,

Annapolis is such a nice area and very similar to our weather-wise since we are both right on the Chesapeake Bay.

Glad to hear you have two hives. Hope they have lots of sources for pollen and nectar.

Sure glad to have you as a reader! And – by the way — how did you find my website?

I've been reading through your blog, and I think that it is wonderful. I'm learning lots. I'm gardening in Annapolis, so I'm finding your timing helpful. We keep two hives in the backyard, and this is very interesting information. I am just beginning to realize that FDA is not there to protect us as so many people think, and once you start reading, it's astounding. Sandra Thanks for this.

Thanks for the great recipe. I will forward this to my children. My husband and I made the "less meat"less meals transition about 1 1/2 years ago and feel super. The garden keeps me fit and the food from the garden gives me the energy to work in the garden. Thanks for your great blog.

Can hardly wait to taste those great veggies from the garden! In the meantime --- I'm fixing a blueberry tart tonight. Those fresh frozen berries sure taste good in the winter. Also having fresh frozen peas from the garden tonight. Won't be long! Theresa I’m excited too Danita! Can hardly wait to taste those great veggies from the garden!

Since you love beets so much, maybe if they get really dry even with mulch ---- a watering can to the garden once a week when there's no rain might be in order. :) I'll look forward to hearing how you do with them this year.
