Happy birthday! My mother always says G-d didn't have to wake us up this morning, so we're grateful for every day we are given. I'm 34 and have been dreaming of a homestead for about two years now. My husband and I are still saving up for land, fixing up the home we have, and getting out of debt. We have a very small garden that we're expanding this year. I've gotten my scratch cooking, bulk buying, and bread baking down pat. I'm reading and learning as much as I can about animal husbandry where we are and I'm working on getting my canning supplies together, little by little. I can only hope to be as far along in my journey when I'm your age. Ya'll are a blessing for anyone trying to learn as much as they can where they are.

I want to share my experience with growing green beans. I bought my seed from Baker Creek for Rattlesnake variety of pole beans and the seed was several years old this past year. I direct sowed and the germination was a little spotty, so I filled in with some of the Rattlesnake bean seed I had saved from the previous year. That particular seed did fantastic and was incerdibly prolific, in this case it really paid off. I am expanding my seed saving and will let you know how it turns out. From Missouri.

I'm still amazed at how simple this is. It even gives information that will help not only with when to plant but how much a family of 4 will need for planting, how big row should be and the approximately yield canning/storing produce. I ended up buying several for my kids and some friends. I didn't even ask if they wanted it, just said here take this, you're going to love it and they do. 🥰

Made 2 new beds and planted kidney beans in one, and store produce pepper seeds in the other. She did great. Took good care of them. Yield was dismal on the kidney beans. Got a cup dried. Her peppers were strong albeit very late producers of attractive large very average peppers. We got her good quality seeds for 2021 and she asked for some for Christmas 2021 for this spring.

GARDENING QUESTION: Josh, on your bean tunnel - how did the hoses work out for raising the sides? Has that been a lasting hack? Thanks! Also -- I live in northern VT. I'm trying FEDCO seeds this year. FEDCO was established in Maine about 40 years ago and they have a strong commitment to locally grown seeds and to seed saving. They also take the OSSI pledge -- Open Source Seed Initiative and the Four Seed Freedoms. It's shocking to me that some countries/regions are making it illegal to save or even share seeds with others. So I too am building my seed-saving skills!

GARDENING QUESTION: I'm in the suburbs. My garden planning is focused primarily on "hardening" our food supply, meaning growing those things that we consume a lot of AND that I can can/preserve. However, I have a sunlight challenge. The majority of our back yard is partial sun to full shade. Can you all talk a little bit about things that can grow well in these light conditions and/or how to overcome the challenge? Thanks!! PS: LOVE the Clyde's Garden Planner!! PPS: For those in the MidAtlantic to Southern United States, a great heirloom seed producer is the Southern Exposure Seed Exchange. They have a website and you can request a newsprint catalog from them for a nominal fee. Some varieties go back to the early 1800s, and some farther (from indigenous peoples).

I grew up on a farm where we were organic before it was a thing. Actually, it was a whole lot cheaper. Anyway, here in Central New York I order my seeds mostly from High Mowing Organic Seeds in Vermont. I've ordered some heirloom novelties from places like Baker Creek. We save a lot of our own seed - tomatoes, peppers, broccoli, snap beans, dry beans, squash, melons, coriander, dill, etc. I also save the littlest potatoes for seed each year when we harvest those. I swap seeds with a couple of family members in January.

Various sites have our average last frost date as April 15-May 1. We however can expect our last frost around May 3-11. The redbud trees in the front of our house on the south side of the creek usually bloom a week before the redbuds on the backside of the house/trees/clearing on the north side of the creek.

Question: Are you guys part of a seed trading program or seedling/starter trading? We like to save our seeds from some fruits and vegetables (only organic) what is the amount of time these type of seeds need to dry out to be able to use? And how long can seeds like this be stored? And what is the best way to store them? Cellar, freezer, creek :) etc. I am working on starting a fruit orchard so I have started several seedlings indoors throughout winter, my question I have for this is how long should I keep the little growing seedling inside and when would I typically plant a fruit tree (I’ve read you can continue to keep it it a pot and grow them inside until a certain point, but will that shock it when finally exposed to the outdoors?) also may I ask what grows best (fruits & veggies) in your Northern Idaho area? Thank you so much Caroline and Josh. Take care and God bless.

The seeds need to be fully matured. A tomato is fully matured when we eat it, so you can seed save at the 'ripe tomato' stage. On the other hand, a zucchini is not fully matured when we eat them so you'll have to let one grow to full size to save seeds from it. Something like lettuce you would need to let it bolt and go to seed (again, beyond the point when you would normally eat it). Also, be mindful that some plants easily cross pollinate (such as tomatoes and squash) so extra measures should be taken if you want to know for sure what variety the seeds are.
