I will also be at this event this Sunday!! Come snag some magnesium butter! I just whipped up a fresh, new batch!!

This Sunday! Come out and celebrate my birthday with me!

Did you know it takes about 36 hours for me to make one batch of magnesium butter?

Drop me an emojis and I’ll send you the recipe so you can make your own! It might be time consuming, as most good things are but it’s not complicated.

I won’t be shipping anything from the butter collection til fall but if you’re local you are in luck. Message me to get added to the weekly delivery drop off!

Fun fact if you have it the body butter doubles as a natural sunblock 😘

Nothin like a garden to make you proud, determined, humbled and excited. Well for me anyway.

Everyone shares their garden wins here’s the truth on this 1st time garden spot.

Is it exactly how’d I do it? Nope. Am I super grateful an old farmer doubled his garden plot to give me space of my own to play in???? YAS!!! I’ll gladly take this tilled up space! 🫶💚🫶

1. A 3 sister garden getting started. Second batch of butterfly pea flowers planted…first set got destroyed in a hail storm but these pretty snap peas are going strong.

2. Tomato 🍅 Game looks strong! Proud of these babies I started in March.

3. Pepper are ready? What? I’ve never had a pepper ready by the end of May. Although my eggplants have remained the same two leaves since I transplanted them 3 weeks ago! 😆 🍆

4. Nasturtiums do look lovely but only two of the 10 I came up after the garden flooded .

5. Root & Salad mix looks good but only 1/2 the lettuce is coming up at best and look at these broccoli plants that have barely grown?!?! 🤣 🥦

6. My farmer friend is suuuper surprised I got carrots to grow in this heavy clay soil. Let’s see what the look like at harvest before I start boasting too much! 🥕

7. I got some help in the garden for some melon & cucumber arches! These little guys just got started. Let’s see how this goes. Looks like a lot of things are popping up but now I do t remember where I planted what soooo SURPRISE! 🤣 🤣 😂

Have I mentioned how grateful I am for this space???

How does your garden grow??
