The cooler temperatures and earlier sunsets are leading my thoughts to inside. That’s the way of autumn. After five months of beautiful outdoor weather with engaging and gratifying garden projects, I am contemplating how to transition this pleasure to the interior sphere.

Intrepid Urban Farmer: Decadence in the Garden
It’s been a long, successful gardening season. Each year presents a different set of conditions to deal with. And this year, as always, each positive development has its own back hand. Rain, for example, has been just wonderful this year. I have barely had to water beyond what has been provided by nature. This […]

Intrepid Urban Farmer: Full of Beans
For me, fresh green beans are one of the most wonderful, sentimental vegetables of the summer garden. My grandfather (the epic old-school gardener), had an entire fifty foot row of willow sapling teepees loaded with pole beans. I can still see that sight in my mind today. It is one of my more vivid memories […]
