http://path-to-sustainability.blogspot.com/2014/08/a-surprise-in-mail-that-brings-me-back.html
Tuesday, August 5, 2014. A surprise in the mail that brings me back to blogging. It has been 9 months since my last post, wow how time flies. I had just about given up blogging, until yesterday when I received a parcel in the mail with some very encouraging words. To explain, I need to go back a bit, a year back to be exact. On the 3 August last year I posted about buying borax in bulk. And how I found a fantastic supplier, kcatz soap crafting. So yesterday my thank you parcel arrived and I am so gratefu...

Our Path To Sustainability: Spring already?
http://path-to-sustainability.blogspot.com/2015/09/spring-already.html
Tuesday, September 8, 2015. I can hardly believe my last post was around this time last year. I was determined to blog more often and, well obviously, that did not happen. I have decided that I will continue to blog as and when I feel like posting something. Could be once a week, or even once a year, but I won't shut this blog down yet. We still have big dreams of moving out of the city and if that happens I would love to document the journey here. Tuesday, September 08, 2015. November 10, 2015 at 1:11 PM.

Calico Hen: pine mulch
http://calicohen.blogspot.com/2012/05/pine-mulch.html
Tuesday, May 15, 2012. I anxiously await the taste of our first strawberry this year. I have switched to pine needle mulch this year as I read that it helps to produce a "wilder" tasting strawberry. And, unlike the straw mulch used in years past, it's free and gathered from our land. Regardless of any taste difference, I will probably proclaim these berries as the sweetest. Posted by Calico Hen.

tamborine patch: November 2010
http://tamborinepatch.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 13, 2010. A large branch on my grand old lemon tree was dead. I cut it off and immediately discovered the cause. Bronze Orange bugs. They are everywhere. Now, accoring to my sources, October and November are the big months for these guys and as they suck on the sap, they cause damage to the branches - hence the dead one! An inspect spray that works, but also kills the 'goodies' - of which I have plenty. spiders, ladybugs etc. Labels: bronze orange bug. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

tamborine patch: summer update
http://tamborinepatch.blogspot.com/2012/03/summer-update.html
Friday, March 2, 2012. Of mung beans and millet. These crops like rain - sigh, I wonder if they LOVE rain? And should do some good for the soil. Still, no point in complaining (although I will, make no mistake! I am planting the autumn/winter crop this weekend, but only in seed trays so they can get a good start without battling all this rain. Thanks Green harvest. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
