Fall is so in the air; the nights are cooling down, there is a cool wind at times and the plants have slowed down their growth substantially. But lately we been having gorgeous sunny days - Fall is stunningly beautiful when it is like this.
I'm very excited to report that I will be taking a few 'Professional Development' days off in a couple of weeks to visit a farm in the Kootenays. If any of you are familiar with the beautiful inspiring book The Garden That You Are you will have seen Elderbee Greens who are featured. They produce organic bedding plants including veggie starts. I am planning on expanding my business next year, in collaboration with Linda from the Green Room, to incorporate organic veggie plants. It seems like such a natural progression because I start my own plants anyway for the CSA, and it will extend my season by a few months into the Spring. By visiting Elderbee Greens, who have been doing this for 35 years, I hope to avoid many of the 'learn as you go' mistakes.
