I was wondering around the internet and found this video. I host Ameerica’s Home Grown Veggie Show, and this one is saved online. It was the show where I spoke with Baltimore City Parks Manager about the veggie that they put in the flower beds outside city hall. It also has one of the rare phone in questions from Pennsylvania:

Farmer D and Mountian Stone on Radio today

Kate — Sat, 15 Aug 2009 11:17:54 +0000

I am getting ready for the double header radio shows today. First up is Atlanta urban farmer, Farmer D who is well known around town. He was also named as a contender for the White House Farmer in the movement last yr for the White House to restore the kitchen garden.
The Master Gardener Show has James Asbury from Mountaineer Stone in PA, and we are going to talk about stone in the garden. I have no knowledge in this area, so it should be a fun show.
Both shows are on www.radiosandysprings.com and can be downloaded from itunes from next week. SO drop by at 10 and 11 this morning (edt) and watch us play.

Spring is almost here!

Yes indeed, it is officially March and that means Spring! Outside is looking like spring too with daffodils in bloom everywhere, the trees are slowly putting out blossom and the forecast is …….. SNOW???????? Apparently the rain from yesterday has turned to drizzle this morning and is going to degenerate into snow by this afternoon. I am sure it will be just a bit of the damp wet sort of snow, but darn it, I am ready for spring. If the snow arrives, look for a picture this afternoon.

Until then I am watching my little seedlings. I finally sowed the first batch last Thursday, and some of them are already showing signs of germination. Mainly the lettuces and basil. I realised when I was looking at them that I do not have a purple basil. I will just have to order a bunch more seeds because just one packet, plus postage is a waste. I wonder what else I will feel compelled to order?

Yesterday on the new radio show (www.radiosandysprings.com Americas Home Grown Veggie Show ) we talked about sowing seeds, average first frost, and getting way too many seedlings – one of my failings. The show was great fun, so take a listen when it is online.
