the sequential harvest of potatoes just went a bit deeper into the season with the addition of two mare late starters in the spud irruption...looking like early blue to me...the more rhyzomes the better as far as this gardener is concerned...the pole bean vine in the second photo has found the maize ...which was the whole idea...buffalobird woman is in the garden...along with some fine sweet corn in the third photo...the bottom photo is pod corn posing in front of maize, pole beans, and squash...the three sisters are building a home.
Organic rather than transgenetic. Labor instead of chemicals. Diversity in place of monoculture.

About Me
- fred
- an ex- industrial worker ( the continued automation of jobs, condensing of ownership, plant closings, trade wars, and degradation of living standards here has rendered me a former industrial worker...now just part-time lumpen proletariat) and university student (everyone needs a hobby...my hobbies have evolved and, to keep things straight, i have left my formal student career behind for reasons that are too detailed to delve into here...continuing to be a student of life however and not adverse to learning...stasis is death ) sliding down the back side of middle age...a social loner with collectivist leanings...explain that.
