Let’s keep it simple. Start the same way I did this morning: just go outside and snip a handful. Mix different leaves together—arugula, baby kale, red lettuce, spinach if you’ve got it. The darker and more colorful the leaves, the more they have to offer. If the flavor feels a little strong, you don’t have to fight it—you can balance it. Add avocado (fat softens bitterness beautifully) Toss in something sweet like a few berries or a drizzle of honey Finish with olive oil, lemon, and salt You don’t need a complicated recipe. You just need to eat them. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/early-april-to-do-list monthly 0.5 2026-03-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1743113567799-06T0HBTXDHZELM1SHDXB/IMG_7635.jpeg Garden Journal - Early April Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/954f039b-647b-4086-923e-3a937d69fa4f/IMG_2319.jpg Garden Journal - Early April Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1743113570278-XWXFWJ6E5ONDWO9NHDPM/IMG_7617.jpeg Garden Journal - Early April Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/24fdbe07-23b8-4192-ae97-0f873ac7ba43/IMG_4799.jpeg Garden Journal - Early April Garden To-Do List https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/midcenturymoderndesign-78p6x monthly 0.5 2026-03-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1773368475523-FSUIT3WPW8NXYKSDE7FS/IMG_8452.jpeg Garden Journal - A Backyard Worth Wandering: Building a Retreat Behind Woodmont Boulevard https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1773368505405-2Y7L573WJO3CMC7IZY7C/IMG_0365.jpeg Garden Journal - A Backyard Worth Wandering: Building a Retreat Behind Woodmont Boulevard https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1773368624279-OBBEHHH6NSKP7CQTV7DW/IMG_0367.jpeg Garden Journal - A Backyard Worth Wandering: Building a Retreat Behind Woodmont Boulevard https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1773374317289-H0RXE0SU2KOO1FLZK42V/IMG_9422.jpeg Garden Journal - A Backyard Worth Wandering: Building a Retreat Behind Woodmont Boulevard https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1773374430142-594CUJ1A3TYONQ7Y3PI1/IMG_0373.jpeg Garden Journal - A Backyard Worth Wandering: Building a Retreat Behind Woodmont Boulevard https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1773374344121-VFHL2RJXHRJBO4WZJCMH/IMG_0370.jpeg Garden Journal - A Backyard Worth Wandering: Building a Retreat Behind Woodmont Boulevard https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/blueberries-before-the-freeze monthly 0.5 2026-03-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1773365571449-XE1Z1OF55IFW3X1A7KWP/blueberry+blossom.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: It’s going to freeze next week!

Now I realize "cool" is attitude, not activities. And I am a very cool gardener. I'm chill when I plant peas in February. I transplant cilantro into spring soil without fear. I keep frost cloth handy and carry on. I experiment a little, replace what fails, and harvest greens while everyone else is still waiting for permission from some garden calendar that was probably written by someone who doesn't live in Tennessee. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/cbe11fd8-fa74-411a-8934-1816c5925872/Image+4.jpeg Garden Journal - Why the Cool Gardeners Plant Early For me, March gardening carries a kind of thrill—the secret confidence of doing something a little bold, a little rebellious. I am that person calling the garden centers this week asking when their veggies seedlings will come in. They try to tell me it's too early. Too early to have a lot of inventory? Sure. Too early for me to experiment and put some seeds in the soil? Never. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/is-my-pant-dead monthly 0.5 2026-02-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1741915934105-L9VY960LED20EI6BS8C9/Image%2B61.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: My [INSERT PLANT NAME] looks dead.

These are typically larger, more dramatic flowers that anchor the arrangement. Great garden focal flowers include: Zinnias – prolific, cheerful, and available in endless colors Dahlias – bold, romantic, and incredibly special (worth the extra care in staking) Sunflowers (pictured)– cheerful and dramatic, especially pollenless varieties which are best for cutting (no messy pollen on your table or your guests!) You don’t need many varieties here. One or two reliable focal flowers can carry your bouquets all season long. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/d619ac3c-b6ae-4a77-adbe-ef8bb05ead40/IMG_2341.jpg Garden Journal - From Garden to Vase: Building a Balanced Bouquet - Add Something Spiky for Shape and Drama Spiky flowers add height and contrast, keeping arrangements from feeling flat or round. Some favorites: Snapdragons (pictured)– tall and elegant with long-lasting blooms that add vertical drama Larkspur – airy and romantic, especially lovely in spring bouquets Salvia – sturdy spikes that add rich color and attract pollinators Celosia (plume or spike types) – bold texture and vibrant color that holds up well in summer heat These give your bouquets a sense of upward movement and structure. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/917bab7a-1f4f-431a-820d-9375ade878e0/IMG_7725.jpg Garden Journal - From Garden to Vase: Building a Balanced Bouquet - Fillers: The Unsung Heroes of Bouquets Fillers do exactly what they sound like: they bulk things up, soften edges, and help connect all the pieces. Easy, garden-friendly fillers: Yarrow (pictured)– sturdy clusters that add soft color and blend beautifully between bold blooms Feverfew – tiny daisy-like flowers that lighten arrangements and make everything feel cheerful Ammi (Queen Anne’s lace type flowers, pictured) – airy and delicate, perfect for adding movement and a romantic feel Statice – long-lasting filler with papery texture that also dries beautifully Bachelor Buttons – charming cottage-style blooms that tuck easily between larger flowers and add a pop of blue, pink, or white These plants are workhorses. They produce a lot of stems and many of those stems hold clusters of florets. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1770934363878-3NHLLD3Q7P3CWCLKG4RN/IMG_3963.jpg Garden Journal - From Garden to Vase: Building a Balanced Bouquet - Don’t Forget the Whimsy This is where bouquets get playful. Whimsical flowers bounce, wiggle, and move with the air, making arrangements feel alive instead of stiff. Try: Pincushion flower (Scabiosa) – delicate, airy blooms that bob above the stems and add softness and bounce Gomphrena (pictured)– cheerful, clover-like globes that thrive in heat and last beautifully in both fresh and dried bouquets Amaranth (pictured)– dramatic, trailing tassels or upright plumes that add texture and a slightly wild, romantic movement to bouquets These are often the flowers people comment on most—“What is that?” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/24fadbb8-bd48-4ef1-abc8-9ab3a0be171b/tempImageSmJthZ.jpg Garden Journal - From Garden to Vase: Building a Balanced Bouquet - Foliage + Scent = The Secret Ingredient It’s easy to overlook, but a lush green backdrop makes your flowers’ color pop. Texture and fragrance matter, too. And you know that impulse to stick your nose into a bouquet when someone hands it to you? Reward it with stems that smell amazing. Lemon basil (pictured)– bright citrus scent that instantly freshens a bouquet and the whole room Cinnamon basil – warm, spicy fragrance that pairs beautifully with rich summer tones Mint – abundant and easy to tuck in for softness, with a cooling scent that feels luxurious Rosemary – sturdy, evergreen sprigs that add structure and a subtle herbal aroma Dill (pictured)– feathery foliage and airy umbels that add softness, movement, and a subtle fresh scent to summer bouquets If you let these herbs bloom, they can also serve as subtle fillers or spikes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1770849051712-WNBD4N63UT6CNSJ6GA5J/IMG_6845.jpeg Garden Journal - From Garden to Vase: Building a Balanced Bouquet - Cool pinks and blues https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1770849142539-D9I8R2VW2XGEXCF6ASJW/IMG_2827.jpg Garden Journal - From Garden to Vase: Building a Balanced Bouquet - Gold and maroon https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1770934520886-FFFLTCS7L3LSQLXWIE4P/IMG_8049.jpg Garden Journal - From Garden to Vase: Building a Balanced Bouquet - Jewel tones https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1770937409967-K04R3V2F48DUXSEOBW7A/IMG_8281.jpg Garden Journal - From Garden to Vase: Building a Balanced Bouquet - High contrast https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1770938402347-9V7IGIT6UZ056LDVMBE0/IMG_3069.jpg Garden Journal - From Garden to Vase: Building a Balanced Bouquet https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1770938355689-C19UISW4FCF2JE1E21V7/IMG_5854.jpg Garden Journal - From Garden to Vase: Building a Balanced Bouquet https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1770938447562-DNTJMLVNOJNTDMDS0ULT/IMG_6693.jpg Garden Journal - From Garden to Vase: Building a Balanced Bouquet https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1770938419238-3SHCA2TO06B3210KEZDJ/IMG_8979.jpg Garden Journal - From Garden to Vase: Building a Balanced Bouquet https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/winter-storm-damage monthly 0.5 2026-02-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1769787719753-J1W75DXLP34C4DQX1QO6/IMG_9705.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: What damage has this winter storm done to my garden? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1769787730815-9PGVEF04R8R14XE64NKC/Screenshot+2026-01-30+at+9.41.15%E2%80%AFAM.png Garden Journal - Q&A: What damage has this winter storm done to my garden? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1769787848564-OQZP54VJGWNB2HEII57B/IMG_4079.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: What damage has this winter storm done to my garden? https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/february-to-do-list monthly 0.5 2026-01-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1738259159928-6RLM2FJXDV0SM7KTZJB7/IMG_7067.jpeg Garden Journal - February Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1738259169301-1HQ523WNIDJTDUOJ5CH9/64358296309__62415C8D-405D-4C2B-A178-5F765F113D18.fullsizerender.jpeg Garden Journal - February Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1738259532460-2JEX8O0I1WKIPU1HFQO7/IMG_7121.PNG Garden Journal - February Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1738259534992-UHYAVAFQNNPSK9Q9VFML/IMG_7648.jpeg Garden Journal - February Garden To-Do List https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/2026-staff-client-goals monthly 0.5 2026-02-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/b331c52d-5f2e-4140-9241-281e42acac01/IMG_9723.jpeg Garden Journal - Garden Goals for the New Year: Inspiration from Our Team & Clients - Emily: Starting Early I’m working toward getting an earlier start on seed starting this year. I have just set up my basement with racks so I can start seeds and avoid our kitchen looking like a big science experiment. Starting seeds on cold days last year was not super fun outside, so I’m looking forward to using my little makeshift potting table inside. Last year, I realized I could have done more cool season veggies, so I don’t want to miss out this year! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/bfd37962-15fb-42d9-8465-3e7b7f3a0289/IMG_2480.png Garden Journal - Garden Goals for the New Year: Inspiration from Our Team & Clients - Melissa: Growing Up I have a suburban backyard that I've thoughtfully utilized to maximize every inch for both growing and outdoor living for my family. My 2026 garden focus is vertical growth-adding more trellises and upright supports to create additional growing space. The sky's the limit! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/f6dd0627-72af-4ee0-b835-4d2c524be7e2/IMG_0409.jpg Garden Journal - Garden Goals for the New Year: Inspiration from Our Team & Clients - Justin: Trusting in Nature In 2026, my primary goal in gardening is quite simple: Don't fight nature. A few years ago, I moved into an adorable house that's surrounded by mature oaks and maples and hackberries. For most of the year, especially the growing season, my yard is almost entirely shaded. Still, I've tended to view the “successes” and “failures” in my gardens by the same criteria as when I was growing in full, unadulterated sun. This year, I’m determined to fight nature less – whether the shade; the rain; the dry; the critters; the weeds; or the acorns and leaves and dropped limbs. Because nature knows best! And it’s incredibly unfair to measure my gardens here – in this space, in this ecosystem, in this microclimate – against any other garden I’ve grown in any other scenario. My intention will be to trust the earth, the seasons, ecology, and our environment, and to stop reducing my relationship with the plants around me to “successes.” Gardening isn’t a competition, nature isn’t something you can win or lose. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/b6db0dfe-4259-482a-84d8-66f6382b4f1f/IMG_8603.jpg Garden Journal - Garden Goals for the New Year: Inspiration from Our Team & Clients - Kate: More focused, More flowers I have 3 main garden goals for 2026. Goal #1- is growing vegetables we will actually eat and enjoy. I have a quirky habit of planting ones that look fun in seed catalogs that we don’t really use enough. However, I always do at least one “new to me” vegetable a year —kalettes are up for 2026. Goal #2- expand my cut flower garden by 25% which should make it profitable!! Goal #3- properly label all my dahlias this year with the intention of being able to sell tubers on a small scale in 2027! https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/gardenparties monthly 0.5 2026-01-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1768540815090-RCSHHAM856V6ZF681IAR/IMG_0230.jpeg Garden Journal - Just Here for the Party: My Garden Why https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1768541119034-X4X0P1XUPWOAQUXA9ODW/IMG_5439.jpeg Garden Journal - Just Here for the Party: My Garden Why https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1768541222482-SXICCUON9ODS518BP4FU/IMG_0481.jpeg Garden Journal - Just Here for the Party: My Garden Why https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1768541381570-BH7M1EYT7CV3XOWLYMTZ/IMG_4017.jpeg Garden Journal - Just Here for the Party: My Garden Why https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/january-to-do-list monthly 0.5 2026-01-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1735844064791-JXI0DTGJRK17DGDI227D/IMG_6550.jpg Garden Journal - January Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1735844038565-EYBVM9KGSENO7MNCUP7P/IMG_6512.jpg Garden Journal - January Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1735843043965-IV0L2R5XZ1M3Y5GB3K2T/IMG_6518.jpeg Garden Journal - January Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1735843896909-MJBD3QVSDD88RNV5EPS4/IMG_6561.jpg Garden Journal - January Garden To-Do List https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/52-weeks-of-harvest monthly 0.5 2026-01-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1767305815579-VN0F810QZCCVPY0FIPJL/IMG_2275.jpg Garden Journal - 52 Weeks of Harvest (Almost): A Delicious Reflection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1767305865475-P5CZS0IXK2AG9NME9VH0/IMG_2265.jpg Garden Journal - 52 Weeks of Harvest (Almost): A Delicious Reflection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1767305783074-VXPBREZ656N1YKJXEJ9O/IMG_2271.jpeg Garden Journal - 52 Weeks of Harvest (Almost): A Delicious Reflection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1767305882177-HJDY3K8LH7FAY2OLRMJ7/IMG_2263.jpg Garden Journal - 52 Weeks of Harvest (Almost): A Delicious Reflection https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/fiveyearsinwittkg monthly 0.5 2025-12-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/18df68de-e5e1-4dcc-8bca-f08100477a66/IMG_0765.jpg Garden Journal - Five Years In: The Garden Metrics That Matter - The Right Work Since the beginning, this growth has felt less like a surprise and more like a confirmation. It often seems that this garden company was simply answering a question people were already asking. People wanted to connect with the land beneath their feet, to taste basil and tomatoes that hadn’t traveled across the country, and to slow life down just enough to notice what was growing. I registered the business name, launched the website, and built Barbara’s garden in October of 2020—not with a grand plan, but with a quiet sense that this might work. By November, two more clients had called—friends and acquaintances who wanted to yank out their boxwoods and grow something useful. There wasn’t much convincing involved. People were already curious, already ready. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/6aafdfe3-fd5a-46a8-956b-082d80a47728/EDE1F52A-C63F-4CBB-AD55-C8579F70F5E5.jpeg Garden Journal - Five Years In: The Garden Metrics That Matter By the time 2021 rolled around, I met Kim, a passionate new gardener whose husband had built a sprawling pandemic garden out of pine posts that were slowly tumbling down the hill in their Nolensville yard. I redesigned the garden of my dreams for Kim, then dusted off my Spanish at a Franklin irrigation shop to enlist help from a team of incredible masons, carpenters, and landscape specialists. Together, we built raised beds into the hillside and this beautiful garden became home to Kim’s extensive dahlia collection and every tomato she could imagine. We capped it off with a drone video, a few Instagram posts, and then the calls kept coming. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/5c93710e-4c2d-4b1b-8343-e5a339b4f0b3/IMG_5001.jpg Garden Journal -

“Garden Sarah”: On friendship, loss, and the tasks that steady us - Rebecca in June 2024, at a “Los Poblanos” Lavender Farm in Albuquerque. I love how the “live photo” on my phone catches her laughter. In the days that followed, I couldn’t explain the sadness. Rebecca had been a work friend who presented at education conferences with me around the U.S., and no one in Nashville had ever met her. Our friendship happened in small-town Hampton Inns, launching burpee competitions at the hotel gym and eating hummus and carrots for dinner because the only other option was Red Lobster. She was the kind of human that kept purple star-shaped sunglasses in her purse and roller blades in the trunk of her car, “you never know when an adventure might be more fun on wheels.” No one knew of our trail running conversations in New Mexico— how she had persuaded me to leave the corporate world and start Tennessee Kitchen Gardens. In her phone she dubbed me Garden Sarah, long before I had earned the title. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/46a88fc6-8446-462c-8be0-2fcba72bf98d/IMG_7168.jpeg Garden Journal - “Garden Sarah”: On friendship, loss, and the tasks that steady us I’m grateful for readers who resonate with the life the garden offers us.

With frost coming this weekend, they will all die and turn to mush, so harvest now if you want any more yield from the summer plants. Remember: blushing tomatoes will continue to ripen at room temperature and any pepper can be enjoyed green (even if they were labeled “red snack peppers”). One you’ve harvested all you can, go ahead and cut the entire plants out at soil level and compost them now — before they get gross next week. And the fall-planted veggies are really coming on now. I’ve seen gorgeous arugula, kale, lettuce, Chinese cabbage, collards, and radishes ready to eat in gardens all over Middle Tennessee. Dill, parsley, fennel, chives, oregano, and rosemary are looking great, too. Mint is making a glorious comeback in lots of gardens. Harvest and dry some for winter teas. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/can-i-save-seeds-from-my-plants-to-grow-next-year monthly 0.5 2025-11-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1728576627066-U54M01CVSTCUFPJMVTTX/unsplash-image-5Tzsn-Z0NPs.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: Can I save seeds from my plants to grow next year? As the garden season winds down, many of our clients have peered down at their dried up zinnias and wrinkled tomatoes and nostalgically asked, “Can I save seeds from my garden veggies to grow next year?” The answer is yes! Seed saving is a savvy way to enjoy your favorite plants season after season. It’s also a practice that connects communities of gardeners as we select and share the plants that we love most with our friends. My tables and shelves are currently strewn with dried flower heads, paper bags and envelopes, and giant okra pods waiting to be sorted and stored for next year’s garden. You don’t have to go deep, but it’s wonderfully gratifying to grow just one or two plants from seeds you collected from your own garden. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1728577177314-2QTAO0RE1Y6PVT250S15/unsplash-image-K1bdl3OgFxg.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: Can I save seeds from my plants to grow next year? - Make it stand out Dill Flower https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/38cb71e9-f352-41fc-b4fa-8293c922a896/Screenshot+2024-10-10+at+11.30.34%E2%80%AFAM.png Garden Journal - Q&A: Can I save seeds from my plants to grow next year? - Make it stand out This bright zinnia flower isn't ready to harvest for seeds yet, but in a couple of weeks, you'll get the pile on the right. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/68cf23a6-62aa-4773-acb8-b40457b5548d/Screenshot+2024-10-10+at+11.33.11%E2%80%AFAM.png Garden Journal - Q&A: Can I save seeds from my plants to grow next year? - Make it stand out Seeds and "gel" inside a tomato. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/fallgardenbuilds monthly 0.5 2025-11-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1761272017125-9FC4MJBZ57VC7SSVWKXJ/Screenshot+2025-10-23+at+9.12.42%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Slow Down for Garden Design: Fall is about Craftsmanship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1761272380412-H4414PMG86IH88UPLV6P/Screenshot+2025-10-23+at+9.19.21%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Slow Down for Garden Design: Fall is about Craftsmanship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1761272709366-OPKJR0WKE6KSZ3LFLO8N/Screenshot+2025-10-23+at+9.24.53%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Slow Down for Garden Design: Fall is about Craftsmanship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1761272969583-FJUZSDOAFB9WS5DV7K9W/IMG_4792.jpeg Garden Journal - Slow Down for Garden Design: Fall is about Craftsmanship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1761271262405-YWYFOYSQCOYTMDJX03QP/Screenshot+2025-10-23+at+8.59.23%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Slow Down for Garden Design: Fall is about Craftsmanship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1761271264431-Y7UKPNNLGBJN7VF9Q7MM/Screenshot+2025-10-23+at+8.58.56%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Slow Down for Garden Design: Fall is about Craftsmanship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1761273161107-V2WRTXZ4L5ZWH0TN6TL7/Screenshot+2025-10-23+at+9.32.25%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Slow Down for Garden Design: Fall is about Craftsmanship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1761273536498-94PH40V7HKE234CD87JQ/Screenshot+2025-10-23+at+9.00.39%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Slow Down for Garden Design: Fall is about Craftsmanship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1761271623130-PCNHE8WPK30OXMFITSDA/Screenshot+2025-06-21+at+8.14.18%E2%80%AFAM.png Garden Journal - Slow Down for Garden Design: Fall is about Craftsmanship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1761271622535-MWINO3TP22V7SYJ4R5MV/Screenshot+2025-06-19+at+4.53.21%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Slow Down for Garden Design: Fall is about Craftsmanship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1761271839196-M2JALJEDHPXK6ISTV4BL/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.50.14%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Slow Down for Garden Design: Fall is about Craftsmanship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1761273588889-VKB0X9BP3ZONGPKRZU9Y/Screenshot+2025-10-23+at+9.02.12%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Slow Down for Garden Design: Fall is about Craftsmanship https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/late-october-garden-to-do-list monthly 0.5 2025-10-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/0fd0a994-4659-4ec7-a166-9500ae31216f/IMG_5482.jpg Garden Journal - Late-October Garden To-Do List - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/558f39d6-dc09-4eab-96dc-91e11ff253ff/IMG_5468.jpg Garden Journal - Late-October Garden To-Do List - Harvest: We are seeing fresh fall-planted lettuce, arugula, and radishes ready to harvest in gardens all over town. Many kale plants are also putting on size and can be harvested from, especially as baby greens, which are extra tasty. Cilantro, dill, parsley, and chives are looking great, too. Keep harvesting your tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, and okra. If it feels like your tomatoes are taking forever to ripen, lean into it. It’s a great time to cook fried green tomatoes or make a green tomato relish. Many gardens have lovely oregano, thyme, sorrel, lemon balm, rosemary, and sage at the moment. A snip of fresh herbs in your eggs or salad is always a win.

Arugula! Baby Kale! If you planted seedlings of these leafy greens a few weeks ago, you should be getting your first fall salads now. Cut the largest leaves from around the outside of the plants and let them continue to grow from the center. Tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, okra, and late-planted squash and beans are still producing if you’ve got the plants. We’ve found a few fat carrots hiding under bigger plants in gardens over the past couple of weeks. Sweet potatoes will be ready to dig soon. When they’ve been in the ground for 120 days and foliage has yellowed and died back, dig up a small section and see if the tubers are big enough. I prefer to wait as long as possible to get the biggest harvest, but you don’t want this crop to freeze, so dig few days before the first frost at the latest. Speaking of unusual crops the grow underground, you can harvest ginger and turmeric this month. Like sweet potatoes, the longer you wait, the bigger crop you’ll get, but DO NOT let the plants freeze — the edible parts will be ruined. Keep cutting and harvesting and deadheading flowers like zinnias, celosia, cosmos, marigolds, and dahlias. Unless you want to save seeds from these plants, then let a few flowers completely die and dry on the plant so the seed can fully mature. For more details on how to do this, check out the mini-course from floret. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/late-september-garden-to-do-list-6ysfr monthly 0.5 2025-09-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/8b0a6327-c59b-407f-93f7-d25639127d52/unsplash-image-HFnMa0WUtuw.jpg Garden Journal - Late-September Garden To-Do List - Pruning/Removing: You may have already removed a lot of summer produce from your garden, but it rained a lot this week, so you amy have another busy weekend of cutting back basil and squash. Also, if you’re like me and accidentally spilled bloodmeal in the same general area of growing summer plants, you may have too many pepper and eggplant leaves, so be careful that they don’t shade growing fall plants too much. Pro tip: It’s best not to prune when plants are wet, as this is when fungi spreads more easily. Wait for a dry sunny day to grab your shears. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1d4538a8-e880-4a64-a55c-0e20ccc9358f/IMG_8558.jpeg Garden Journal - Late-September Garden To-Do List - Pest Watch Cabbage worms, harlequin bugs, and aphids haven’t gotten the memo that it’s fall. Keep checking the undersides of leaves (especially brassicas like kale and collards), and squish or spray as needed. A little Bt can go a long way for caterpillar control—just don’t forget to reapply after rain. Slugs and pill bugs may also show up in wet weather. Trap them with boards or terra cotta saucers, or sprinkle diatomaceous earth around seedlings to protect them. Harvest Tomatoes, okra, peppers, and eggplant are still producing in many gardens. Even if they’re winding down, be sure to harvest often and remove any fruits with blemishes to keep pests from moving in. We’re also starting to enjoy arugula, baby mustard greens, and the very first salad turnips in a few gardens—what a treat! https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/keepgreensfrombolting monthly 0.5 2025-09-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/b9e06c6f-a49d-4d38-ac0f-669554ac0167/unsplash-image-8kkK7wFJCK8.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: How do I keep lettuce and spinach from bolting if we get another hot spell? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/b8ff2c02-4526-4e87-b284-129bb4a0b45a/IMG_3717.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: How do I keep lettuce and spinach from bolting if we get another hot spell? - Lettuce and spinach love those crisp fall nights, but a surprise September or October heat wave can send them straight into bolting mode (shooting up a flower stalk instead of giving you tender leaves). Here’s how to keep them happy: Pick the right varieties. We have planted heat-tolerant lettuces in our gardens. Look for “salanova,” “winter density” and “red star.” You can even try bolt-resistant spinach varieties like ‘Malabar’ (technically not spinach, but works in the heat). ⛱ Give them some shade. Tuck them on the east side of taller crops (tomatoes, peppers, trellised beans), or rig up a bit of shade cloth during the hottest part of the day. Even a scrap of row cover or an old sheet draped over hoops can lower the soil temp. Water deeply and consistently. Dry soil + heat = stressed plants that think it’s time to reproduce. Keeping the soil evenly moist cools it down and helps leaves stay tender. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/how-to-use-the-bountiful-late-summer-tomato-harvest-xsbxs monthly 0.5 2025-09-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1758857608083-4QHSR2I357LU2Q9YJIBA/Screenshot+2025-09-25+at+10.25.46%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - The Annual Tomato Recipe Collection (Volume 2) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1758857776820-5TFZH5S4Y6S3X1QJZ8GL/Screenshot+2025-09-25+at+10.36.06%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - The Annual Tomato Recipe Collection (Volume 2) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1758859873740-QW2CWAWBL8JXZR4S2PGK/Screenshot+2025-09-25+at+11.11.07%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - The Annual Tomato Recipe Collection (Volume 2) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1758859920332-NJKRFPOACTNYHXFA082E/IMG_6511.jpeg Garden Journal - The Annual Tomato Recipe Collection (Volume 2) https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/what-tkg-planted-in-fall-gardens-the-grocery-store-staples-and-the-garden-only-goodness monthly 0.5 2025-09-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/b9f0fb18-ec27-4961-87b1-a7ecb9ae35fc/IMG_6742.jpeg Garden Journal - What TKG Planted in Fall Gardens: The Grocery-Store Staples and the Garden-Only Goodness - Fall gardening in Middle Tennessee is all about abundance. Don’t you remember that basket-style cornucopia tumbling with veg in your third grade drawings of the Pilgram’s Thanksgiving? That’s the food from a fall garden, people! We’ve got the summer tomatoes, okra, peppers, beans, squash and eggplants coming out our ears, and, as the heat dies down, we get a fresh round of greens that thrive in the cooler nights and shorter days. This week, the Tennessee Kitchen Gardens team has been filling your gardens, and our own, with a mix of familiar favorites (the kind you’d find in any grocery store) and funky, garden-only gems you’ll never see on a shelf.

Sometimes that’s because they don’t ship well (too tender, too delicate), sometimes it’s because they’re funky-looking and “unmarketable,” and sometimes it’s simply because big growers stick to the most common varieties. We plant our fair share of kale and green cabbage every year, but we just cannot resist trying greens that are strange colors and shapes, or just unheard of. Romanesco, anyone? Kohlrabi? Radicchio? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1757651951082-ZJ5XDZ6R8E48P5M75ZBP/IMG_8343.jpeg Garden Journal - What TKG Planted in Fall Gardens: The Grocery-Store Staples and the Garden-Only Goodness https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1757652019436-MR7MSZ7C4UFQTTDF2SO6/5df5ac60a3b74de090b47f7dd20d4bc8+2.JPG Garden Journal - What TKG Planted in Fall Gardens: The Grocery-Store Staples and the Garden-Only Goodness https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1757651947472-F81U0F5B2FFUHPO4CY99/IMG_0410.jpeg Garden Journal - What TKG Planted in Fall Gardens: The Grocery-Store Staples and the Garden-Only Goodness https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1757652213336-4R3QP3J2R89JCZXCOF3C/IMG_8345.jpeg Garden Journal - What TKG Planted in Fall Gardens: The Grocery-Store Staples and the Garden-Only Goodness https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/mid-september-garden-to-do-list monthly 0.5 2025-09-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/2302365c-338d-4733-afb3-55be5b9f3dec/IMG_4814.jpg Garden Journal - Mid-September Garden To-Do List - Pruning/Removing: If basil is getting wild and full of flowers, cut them back by half and they may give you one more flush of fresh green leaves. If you’ve had enough basil (check out Lisa's WAGON-FULL in the photo), cut plants at the soil level and let roots decompose underground. Just because tomatoes, peppers, okra, and eggplant will live until the frost, it doesn’t mean you have to keep them. It’s your garden. If a plant doesn't look or taste good anymore, it’s totally fine to remove it. It’s getting to be a bit too late to do a significant prune on perennial herbs like oregano, thyme, sage, and rosemary. You can do a little shaping or harvesting here and there, but wait until spring to really prune these back to a tidy shape. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/l3c8ndrndsy387q10fe9x4s9ea6p91 monthly 0.5 2025-08-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1756436056644-US3OZPNOWU39M6AS7J65/unsplash-image-4VmRGhO9x4Q.jpg Garden Journal - Sip the Season: Hydrating Teas & Immune Boosting Herbs from the Garden - Thyme & Honey Soother (perfect for sore throats + stuffy days) If using fresh thyme, simmer 1 Tbsp chopped fresh thyme in 1 cup of water on the lowest setting, covered, for 10 minutes.

Just because they want to grow every direction, doesn’t mean you have to let them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/a11626f9-1f95-4932-a302-b7d5e536e785/Screenshot+2024-08-29+at+4.32.29%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Early September Garden To-Do List - Ahhhhhh….

Plant cool-season crops like lettuce, arugula, kale, and carrots in the partial shade of peppers or tall tomato plants. The extra cover helps seedlings stay cool during hot afternoons. Interplant thoughtfully. Sow seeds in open gaps or at the edges of beds. As the days cool and summer crops wind down, fall crops will take over. The photo shows lettuce and radish sprouts under the shade of okra, tulsi, peppers, and even a tall kale “tree” that was planted last spring.

Most of the other booths leaned heavily on trees, shrubs, and perennials — all beautiful — but our edible-filled raised beds really stood out. And that was nerve-wracking. We figured the judges would either love it or… well… not so much. But they loved it. That blue ribbon felt extra sweet, especially for Sarah. She has a competitive streak a mile wide, as anyone who's played pickleball with her knows. But it wasn’t all smooth sailing. We could have prepped more off-site — our crew was still cutting and sanding the raised beds during setup — so what took most teams 2–3 hours took us closer to ten. Finding healthy, lush veggies in mid-August was another challenge, but thanks to some strategic up-potting and a lucky find of big peppers and green basil at the local Lowe’s, we pulled it off. We had some good laughs along the way — like when the guys meticulously swept the gravel and pavers before leaving for the day… only for us to come in with armloads of plants and soil and promptly undo all that neatness. Classic. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/qampa-what-should-do-if-my-tomatoes-get-too-big-for-their-trellis monthly 0.5 2025-08-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/2d4c3260-a3be-4e70-9e5d-a92b9226300c/58523711693__B8A23490-7E13-46B3-8703-57501E333778.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: What should do if my tomatoes get too big for their trellis? - Option 1: Tip them over Once the main stem reaches the top of the trellis, gently bend it down and weave it sideways along the top or down the opposite side. This keeps the stem supported and prevents it from flopping in the wind. Even with our tall arch trellises, tomatoes can try to grow straight up rather than over the arch the way we want them to. Careful weave or tie the stems the way you want them to go. Option 2: Prune for height If you’ve been letting the plant grow freely and haven’t removed many suckers, now’s the time to get more selective. Cutting the top growth will slow upward momentum—but yes, it can encourage more suckers from lower down. In mid-to-late summer, that’s not necessarily bad. Those suckers can grow, flower, and produce fruit before frost, especially on cherry varieties that have a shorter time to maturity. Option 3: Let it sprawl If you have space, you can let the extra growth cascade down. Just be mindful of airflow—tangled, dense foliage can invite disease. And once those stem become heavy with ripe fruit, they can easily tear or break. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/your-august-reset-button-starting-fresh-with-a-fall-garden monthly 0.5 2025-08-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/8f4eb99d-9ab2-4963-94e4-cad631b6ae32/IMG_0594.jpg Garden Journal - Your August Reset Button: Starting Fresh with a Fall Garden - Step 1: Clear the Decks If a plant is producing poorly, looks sickly, or is crawling with pests, it’s not worth the real estate anymore. Pull it out and compost it (unless it’s diseased — in that case, toss it in the trash). Common August culprits: Tomatoes with advanced blight Cucumber vines with bacterial wilt or powdery mildew Squash plants past their prime You know, it’s like tossing the stinky lunchbox with last year’s SpaghettiOs. You’re tossing what’s broken and making room for the fresh start. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/2e107955-5be0-48a0-b6b9-9a430309137c/IMG_3101.jpg Garden Journal - Your August Reset Button: Starting Fresh with a Fall Garden - Step 2: Refresh Your Soil Summer crops are called “heavy feeders” — they require a lot of nutrients. After months of growth, your soil is ready for a boost. Here’s how to get your beds back in shape: Add 1–2 inches of compost on top of the soil. Mix in a balanced organic fertilizer like GardenTone from Espoma to replenish nutrients. Water deeply to help amendments settle in before planting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/f0d940f2-1f4f-4b9a-b7ab-acf3f71c6c97/62083789643__382C9BEC-82F7-4D1B-AE04-2C32BFB283F6.jpeg Garden Journal - Your August Reset Button: Starting Fresh with a Fall Garden - Step 3: Plant with Purpose (and a Shorter Calendar) Fall planting is a race against the first frost, which usually arrives in late October for Middle Tennessee. That means now is the time to choose crops with shorter maturity dates so you can harvest before the cold sets in. Days are also getting shorter, so we need to plant fall crops in early September so that they have enough time to gain size before the winter darkness creeps in. Great options to plant in late August: Leafy greens: lettuce, arugula, kale, spinach, mustard greens Roots: radishes, turnips, beets, carrots Herbs: cilantro, dill, parsley Want to experiment? Try varieties you skipped in spring — red mustard for a spicy salad mix, rainbow carrots for color, or an heirloom kale you’ve never grown before. This is the same kind of thrill that I experience on the yearly August Target School Supply trip — anyone else remember Trapper Keepers and Jelly pens? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/329e4d69-871e-44ec-bf2f-57597a15c68e/IMG_4989.jpg Garden Journal - Your August Reset Button: Starting Fresh with a Fall Garden - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/mid-august-garden-to-do-list monthly 0.5 2025-08-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/86c90ff4-e674-49ae-ba18-0ff0c9fed8bb/IMG_4353.jpg Garden Journal - Mid-late August Garden To-Do List - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1723582534819-FXDCRD4Q9OIUSAZAM2X3/IMG_4181.png Garden Journal - Mid-late August Garden To-Do List - Hornworm https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/276f3023-9854-4317-aa88-0a960eccfaad/IMG_3272.jpg Garden Journal - Mid-late August Garden To-Do List - Squash Bug Eggs https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/3a57242c-ff12-49d2-a5de-3c6bbcc16633/IMG_3183.jpg Garden Journal - Mid-late August Garden To-Do List - Striped Cucumber Beetle https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1723583369743-7CAKGNI0FN8SOWY7PCHB/IMG_4437.jpeg Garden Journal - Mid-late August Garden To-Do List - Flea Beetle Damage on Eggplant https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/earlyaugust-garden-to-do-list monthly 0.5 2025-07-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1722284305124-LI8ITG405GATE6PA0KXG/unsplash-image-YxJcb7QpsV0.jpg Garden Journal - Early August Garden To-Do List - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/why-dont-i-have-tons-of-tomatoes monthly 0.5 2025-08-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/5f947e30-0155-4c30-b5a3-4822f2bdf6d3/IMG_9932.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: Why don’t I have tons of tomatoes yet? - Every Variety Has Its Own Timeline It's important to remember that different tomato varieties have different timelines for ripening. For instance, Cherokee Purple tomatoes often take around 80 to 85 days to mature, while Sun Golds (pictured) can start ripening in as little as 55 to 65 days. So, if your tomatoes are taking their time, that’s totally normal. Plus, according to the Tennessee Department of Agriculture, August marks the peak of the growing season, so the best is definitely yet to come. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1754015389208-H74H9KSOUVUIOZX4JPYL/IMG_9926.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: Why don’t I have tons of tomatoes yet? - An August '24 Harvest Log https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1754001635728-AC8V0EH2LWGQ5US3ZIS3/71243398539__014B91B8-AF09-4F25-AADC-62F63BCE064C.fullsizerender.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: Why don’t I have tons of tomatoes yet? - Making Sauce in September https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1754001638453-EVH65N97CZCTX3B1LZ35/IMG_4729.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: Why don’t I have tons of tomatoes yet? - October Bounty https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1754015362414-Z4B14OSZ5TB2VM29Z1TD/IMG_9933.png Garden Journal - Q&A: Why don’t I have tons of tomatoes yet? - Still harvesting in November https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/no-lettuce-no-problem-summer-salads-from-the-garden monthly 0.5 2025-08-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/ee5e376f-2405-46cb-bad2-ab53dcfc94f9/Screenshot+2025-07-30+at+11.25.53%E2%80%AFAM.png Garden Journal - No Lettuce? No Problem. Summer Salads from the Garden - First up, a cucumber salad with pantry staples. You all may have noticed that I love New York Times Cooking. I spend as much time flipping through recipes as I do on Instagram. I will confess, my very favorite NYT cucumber salad has avocado in it, but in effort to keep us from buying produce from California and Mexico, I choose this Cucumber Salad with Soy, Ginger and Garlic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/6ce2d077-513d-4aab-be68-6bef6dc0d47e/Minimalist+Baker+Spicy+Watermelon+Salad Garden Journal - No Lettuce? No Problem. Summer Salads from the Garden - Next up, watermelon. I’m obsessed with watermelon right now. My own melons won’t be ready for several weeks, but I’ve been picking them up every Saturday at the farmers’ market, and even Sybil the pup comes running when I pull out the cutting board for a juicy chop session. I am excited to try this True-Food Kitchen inspired Spicy Watermelon Salad from Minimalist Baker, though it does require that imported avocado. I’m also well acquainted with MB’s Mint Watermelon salad, and oh baby, I have all of that produce in my garden. It’s the perfect party contribution. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/a4011d04-41e4-48bc-b656-daf7166ca06f/Screenshot+2025-07-30+at+11.25.31%E2%80%AFAM.png Garden Journal - No Lettuce? No Problem. Summer Salads from the Garden - Third, tomatoes and basil, of course. Now, I will admit, my cherry tomatoes aren’t really popping yet. I’m only collecting 5 to 10 little guys a day. But my next door neighbor, who was itching for summer while it was still frosty in April, planted her tomatoes super early and was generously rewarded with Early Girl tomatoes, and I've been “helping” her handle the harvest. This Caprese Pasta Salad recipe from Half-Baked Harvest just makes me happy. A little comfort, a little fresh. Bring on the heat, I can handle it when it’s paired with this kind of summer flavor. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/0c5169db-7f8d-41ee-98f7-6d646f6d5f0d/Screenshot+2025-07-30+at+11.25.10%E2%80%AFAM.png Garden Journal - No Lettuce? No Problem. Summer Salads from the Garden - Fourth, what to do with the green beans? This! I love a cool, crisp green bean salad, and this one from Bon Appétit incorporates some of our prolific cucumber harvest too. It seems that rice vinegar, ginger and miso are my flavor profile this summer. Hope you are into it, too :) Sidenote, do you have purple beans in your garden, too?! I love how they look while they are growing, but when you blanche them, they will turn green. Kinda sad, but the green goodness is a happy compromise. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/prioritizing-lifestyle-over-layout-our-evolving-perspective-on-garden-design monthly 0.5 2025-07-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1752802782777-GZ950WW05YC99AKU6LJD/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.37.26%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Prioritizing Lifestyle over Layout: Our Evolving Perspective on Garden Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1752802765617-9OV7TVESWZ7ZGBM3X0R0/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.36.53%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Prioritizing Lifestyle over Layout: Our Evolving Perspective on Garden Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1752802868812-EW1NQYPZCBE66HQ8Q9UA/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.38.49%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Prioritizing Lifestyle over Layout: Our Evolving Perspective on Garden Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1752802804405-94SNLHZKYB3QBPHK97CN/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.37.56%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Prioritizing Lifestyle over Layout: Our Evolving Perspective on Garden Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1752803217844-6OJDOLFONEIT4PDL1889/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.44.41%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Prioritizing Lifestyle over Layout: Our Evolving Perspective on Garden Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1752803212927-YODU9OQXMWWL1R4TKWQ4/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.45.23%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Prioritizing Lifestyle over Layout: Our Evolving Perspective on Garden Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1752803211196-DGM0GRZVSXB754VUEXGB/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.43.26%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Prioritizing Lifestyle over Layout: Our Evolving Perspective on Garden Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1752803215778-C6SXIR4PH42GH19DKES1/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.45.08%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Prioritizing Lifestyle over Layout: Our Evolving Perspective on Garden Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1752803532971-LV50Q6NOCJAET84HJRNW/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.50.21%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Prioritizing Lifestyle over Layout: Our Evolving Perspective on Garden Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1752803556624-VL0R1AKC7Q6T46EM80YV/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.49.55%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Prioritizing Lifestyle over Layout: Our Evolving Perspective on Garden Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1752803547989-IT9Y9A6D7YWDHKOZILZ3/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.48.56%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Prioritizing Lifestyle over Layout: Our Evolving Perspective on Garden Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1752803695500-46O4GSYAFLIQ9ODJXWA3/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.54.45%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Prioritizing Lifestyle over Layout: Our Evolving Perspective on Garden Design https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/late-july-garden-to-do-list monthly 0.5 2025-07-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/a4d0de8a-92c7-47d0-9dc1-26620dddc7fb/13652C6E-FD1D-4C83-B7B4-07CB5F321D99.jpg Garden Journal - Late July Garden To-Do List - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1714687877623-WWKEI9C1NVQX1VX3CQ82/Screenshot+2024-05-02+at+5.10.04%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Late July Garden To-Do List - Planning for fall and next year: A productive gardener is always thinking a few months ahead.

It seems crazy, but if you want to have a fall garden you have to get started in July. In the next couple of weeks, plan what you want to grow this fall and start figuring out where it might go in your garden. If you are starting your own seeds indoors, clean and take stock of your supplies, including seeds for the varieties you want to grow. Tennessee Kitchen Gardens offers complete fall planting services, but spaces are limited, so book now. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/quick-pickles monthly 0.5 2025-06-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1750376878972-AKF427ZWVX356RDQ0JUW/IMG_4034.jpeg Garden Journal - Quick Pickles https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1750376878071-53CTSQVM98NQ5PXQJUQ1/IMG_3332.jpeg Garden Journal - Quick Pickles https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1750376934603-JAXZATUU0HRYUPHSMJJB/IMG_3111.jpeg Garden Journal - Quick Pickles https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1750376884354-SM1F8D2PUWIBYGVVQHBW/IMG_5305.jpeg Garden Journal - Quick Pickles https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/late-june-garden-to-do-list monthly 0.5 2025-06-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/f42a13ec-c70f-445f-96ca-39c7be4636e7/IMG_3426.jpg Garden Journal - Late June Garden To-Do List - Summer crops https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/276f3023-9854-4317-aa88-0a960eccfaad/IMG_3272.jpg Garden Journal - Late June Garden To-Do List - Pests Squash bugs lay a cluster of eggs under leaves. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/when-is-it-too-late-to-plant-a-garden monthly 0.5 2025-06-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/9ca12dbe-6ea2-4209-b824-76254047df47/Screenshot+2025-06-14+at+1.41.07%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Q&A: When is it too late to plant a summer garden? - Make it stand out An abundant spring harvest, thanks to a well-timed March planting https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/28ada7bc-857a-439c-8a5a-f91f31b7ee3d/Screenshot+2025-06-14+at+10.37.35%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Q&A: When is it too late to plant a summer garden? - Make it stand out Instead of jumping the gun with tomatoes, stay focused on the sweet greens of the cool season https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/0e085c2e-558d-4878-8ea7-a65f1b158c69/TKG+SHISHITO+PEPPERS Garden Journal - Q&A: When is it too late to plant a summer garden? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1749956857467-MSHJOBK1Z9AFPAKRXSEE/unsplash-image-TiTU0k1E0UE.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: When is it too late to plant a summer garden? - Make it stand out Short harvest crops: zucchini and yellow squash take 60 days, but butternut squash take 120 days. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/add953bc-734f-443e-b916-b7452d1bf5b1/Screenshot+2025-06-14+at+11.03.28%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Q&A: When is it too late to plant a summer garden? - Make it stand out The late September garden.

November 2023. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/39d8bb15-da6e-4f65-a67c-a17012e178c0/Screenshot+2025-05-08+at+9.35.18%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Q&A: What kind of trellis should I use for all of these summer crops? “Obelisk”: A very strange word that I dare you to say three times fast. But it’s a lifesaver in the garden. Especially when you accidentally buy 7 tomato varieties and don’t have a place to put them. Buy more obelisks. The trick to selecting a great obelisk is to find something that is as large as possible without looking like the Seattle Space Needle. We have some that are 72 inches tall and others that are 96 inches tall. The taller version is easier to maintain when the plants are really going gangbusters, but some people think they look too big when the garden is bare. Personally, I still recommend that you go big :) What crops to plant on an obelisk? In my opinion, the obelisk is a great place for cucumber. Because the cucumber is a shorter-lived summer crop, it’s not going to ruin your whole garden focal point if it’s tucked into an obelisk and it croaks in July. Also, cucumbers are hard to train up and over an arch, so I think the obelisk is just right for this spiky veg. But what else? A large obelisk is a great place for large tomatoes like BetterBoy, Carbon, Mortgage Lifter, or whatever big Daddy tomato you picked up this year. They will be well supported and the fruit will be easy to find. I also like obelisks for tomatillos or eggplants, as those crops get surprisingly tall by summer’s end. This is another great opportunity to put in a plug for winter squash or pumpkins; you may just need to keep winding those wandering vines up the obelisks because they would love to sprawl across your entire garden. You could plant pole beans on an obelisk, but you may need to add some string to help the beans climb. Check out my next section on panels for the real deal on pole beans. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/3224ac6a-b08c-4ae5-8181-25b4f0ff72ac/Screenshot+2025-05-08+at+11.08.20%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Q&A: What kind of trellis should I use for all of these summer crops? - Panels We often use panels because of the design of a garden. Imagine a long garden bed like this one, there’s just not a side-by-side set up that’s right for an arch, and the panels in this garden provide growing space that it would take 12 obelisks to match. Our panels are either made of steel or galvanized wire with a cedar frame. We need them to be beefy because they will eventually support a lot of weight. Honestly, anything can go on a panel, and often it’s the only option in a garden, so we get a little OCD weaving the tomatoes through the grid. Panels are a great options for pole beans because the vertical lines allow for lots of vertical growth, which is exactly what pole beans want to do. In fact, in a garden like this one, we have planted those classic summer field peas on the fence panels and got a nice crop. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/mid-may-to-do-list monthly 0.5 2025-05-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1746754633048-E8VIB4MKSA75WYHNE6TE/IMG_8275.jpeg Garden Journal - Mid May Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1746754635700-0L6PERRN64ZAEFHX4HE6/IMG_8280.jpeg Garden Journal - Mid May Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1746754729162-RXFVQ903PASAJOR8MCXS/IMG_8240.jpeg Garden Journal - Mid May Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1746754644544-9XB5J0HO44LGBPGYJ011/IMG_8265.jpeg Garden Journal - Mid May Garden To-Do List https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/beyond-tomatoes-9-plants-worth-trying-this-summer monthly 0.5 2025-05-09 https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/thinning-carrots-and-more monthly 0.5 2025-05-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1745522252840-8EFW1QJ50FKWM6160DOX/IMG_8057.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: Do I Need to Thin My Carrot Seedlings?

They will grow back! You could take every single leaf except for the “terminal bud” at the center and the whole plant will likely bounce back, and if not, plant more! And while you’re out there, grab some herbs! Dill, parsley, cilantro, thyme. You can mix them into your greens or add to dressing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1744339020686-U0O07LTPZ65ADKDY8YY3/unsplash-image-PmsMVBSOkhs.jpg Garden Journal - Go for the Green (or: How to Become a Salad Eater) - 3. Master a Few Easy Dressings Forget the bottled stuff. Homemade dressings are simple and infinitely better. Bonus: you already have most ingredients in your kitchen—or even your garden. True story: I once handed my dad a bottle of store-bought Italian dressing and told him to read the label. We walked into the garden and found every single herb listed. That was a proud health-hippie moment. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/late-april-to-do-list monthly 0.5 2025-04-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1744320128663-PASLMENFKVDDO9S59F68/IMG_7753.jpg Garden Journal - Mid-Late April Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1744320203030-TYIQ5VD2XDDNCAOCJW9R/IMG_5881.jpg Garden Journal - Mid-Late April Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1744320154486-KFUT5GRZOC765PUVIJJ8/IMG_7811.jpg Garden Journal - Mid-Late April Garden To-Do List https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1744320085720-JLPATQCCJRO96BMEIP68/IMG_4673.jpeg Garden Journal - Mid-Late April Garden To-Do List https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/gardenonanewfamilyhomestead monthly 0.5 2025-05-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1d1cd1d3-cb65-4d15-a562-d033e122a26c/IMG_5817.jpg Garden Journal - Garden Tour: Reducing the Overwhelm on a New Family Homestead - Make it stand out Sidewalk to nowhere.

Spray Bottle A spray bottle allows you to water seedlings gently without washing away soil or damaging tiny sprouts. Why? Seedlings are delicate, and heavy watering can dislodge them. Options: Any basic spray bottle works well. My favorite: a pump sprayer saves me from getting hand cramps. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/7fbca6b5-384f-4ce1-9697-ff879520395a/71YSUOKKl8L._AC_SL1120_.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: What equipment do I need to start seeds indoors? - 3.

They ensure that you can access all your plants. Paths should be wide enough for a wheelbarrow or garden cart (about 2.5 to 3 feet) and made from materials that suit your needs and style—gravel, wood chips, brick, or even stepping stones. Choose materials that are low-maintenance and provide good drainage, especially in areas prone to heavy rain. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/b5f3d67e-1569-485b-b99a-8e2ab01d27ed/4T8A7577+%281%29.jpg Garden Journal - January Planning Series Part 2: Your Garden Design - Edging Good garden edges keep things tidy and add structure to your space. Whether you’re using steel, stone, or wood, edging helps define pathways and keeps weeds at bay. It can also make the garden feel intentional and finished, which is especially helpful if you’re working in a highly visible part of your yard. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1878fc51-5ef0-4f7f-a632-1927d3c6a852/4T8A7469.jpg Garden Journal - January Planning Series Part 2: Your Garden Design - Vertical Elements Incorporating vertical structures like panels, arches or obelisks or arbors is a great way to maximize space in smaller gardens while adding visual interest. These structures support climbing plants like cucumbers, tomatoes, beans, or even decorative vines. Vertical gardening can also make harvesting easier and improve airflow around plants, reducing the risk of disease. Don’t forget to place vertical elements strategically to avoid shading out sun-loving crops. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/6d2eef95-0525-4877-ba2f-c9252c5cd586/4T8A7376-Edit+copy.jpg Garden Journal - January Planning Series Part 2: Your Garden Design - Make it stand out Abi and Sarah enjoy the bench that was included in this garden space for nearby grandparents https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/gardentotable-kale monthly 0.5 2025-01-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/54777b5f-4574-47e4-8f35-74a0cb9fa5a4/IMG_5446.JPG Garden Journal - Garden to Table: January Edition As I wrote in a blog last fall, winter has become my time of rest. I spent the holidays at the beach, and when I returned to Nashville just in time for our beautiful winter storm, I entered what I’ve deemed “the great hunker-down.” I’m outside for just a quick shot of Vitamin D each day, but I’ve gotten a little obsessed with several AppleTV series; I keep trying to beat my sleep score on my Oura ring, and I’ve left my house as little as possible. Thankfully, I’ve got a stockpile of grains, chicken broth, freezer meat and dried beans, and although my garden is looking pretty bare, I’ve got greens! When the winter temps have dropped and I don’t have the umph for frost-cloth, I’m so grateful for the self-sufficient and resilient buffet of winter greens. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/9abb5fe1-bde4-404e-afa0-8e0b72dca3b8/59b590f7a10345a79729b1a32a19993c+2.jpg Garden Journal - Garden to Table: January Edition - Make it stand out Kale standing tall under the snow in the Thomas garden.

I have the patience to chop onions, garlic and ginger to add to Allison Roman’s chickpea + tumeric + greens soup that famously earned the name, “The Stew” several years ago. My Dad is still raving about it after I made a huge pot for them over the holidays. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/e55004e6-757b-4023-9d61-697b34356f9c/Image+55.jpg Garden Journal - Garden to Table: January Edition - Keepin’ It Simple If you don’t have time for chopping and dicing, I recommend sautéed kale, which is ready in minutes, and can be transformed into a fancy grain bowl by combining leftovers like rice, quinoa, whatever protein, and a dressing like smashed avocado or a tahini sauce like this one. This combination has carried me down I-65 many afternoons when I need to be on project sites. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/ff8ec4dc-d5b1-426b-b314-8b9c783f6f52/Screen+Shot+2025-01-15+at+4.49.52+PM.png Garden Journal - Garden to Table: January Edition - New Year, New Collards Greens Recipe The last recipe I’ll post today is focused on collard greens. Now, one of my health-whiz clients has gotten me hooked on collards: they are high in all kinds of vitamins and minerals, and I’ve been trying to eat more of them. But I must confess, I don’t like the taste of southern style collard greens. (Please don’t tell my mother! I’ve choked down so many bites to appease her on New Years Day!) Instead, I’ve gotten hooked on this unique coconut-braised collard green recipe from NYT cooking. It’s a five star winner! https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/qa-winter-sowing monthly 0.5 2025-01-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1737042658348-4891FD7XUG5R1C9FBXK7/unsplash-image--FMxvHTCRmw.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: Is there a way I can start seeds without any special equipment? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1737041499926-6N7B0IMV7B6HFY6YYZBF/IMG_6972.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: Is there a way I can start seeds without any special equipment? - Perennials https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1737041550269-KISFF5GGD25HX5NRXBCO/IMG_6971.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: Is there a way I can start seeds without any special equipment? - Cool Season Veggies https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1737041382350-FY1ZKYGYF8SLGU7IXLN1/IMG_6968.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: Is there a way I can start seeds without any special equipment? - Look for phrases like "cold stratify," "refrigerate," or "frost hardy." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1737041430571-HVXOOJL77U8Y12K43WXG/IMG_6967.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: Is there a way I can start seeds without any special equipment? - Hardy Annual Flowers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1737041834502-GVEPRJ6UBS9438XPMPAJ/IMG_6823.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: Is there a way I can start seeds without any special equipment? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1737041835399-UJPFHDIZPASMV2ICXZC1/IMG_6831.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: Is there a way I can start seeds without any special equipment? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1737041846594-LVP8UH1R64NY9RI1Q6DH/IMG_6899.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: Is there a way I can start seeds without any special equipment? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1737041832883-BWU763YWSPUL52O9YN7F/IMG_6869.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: Is there a way I can start seeds without any special equipment? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1737041841868-OAYE333NP1RUPN20UDK0/IMG_6974.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: Is there a way I can start seeds without any special equipment? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1737041838512-AZZB339LJYDOM2KQPPQS/IMG_6942.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: Is there a way I can start seeds without any special equipment? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1737041841904-OILMQR2LKAWK1AFSDTUV/IMG_6990.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: Is there a way I can start seeds without any special equipment? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1737041844351-U9AZNFD6HE6UJW01FMUO/IMG_7044.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: Is there a way I can start seeds without any special equipment? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/6513f06d-ef3c-406e-a9e1-3e7cc9145c00/IMG_7055.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: Is there a way I can start seeds without any special equipment? - How to Tend Your Winter Sown Seeds Winter sowing is a low-maintenance method, but a little care goes a long way to ensure your seeds thrive. Here’s what you need to do: 1. Check for Moisture While winter typically provides plenty of moisture through snow and rain, there may be dry spells. Check your containers occasionally to ensure the soil stays moist. If it looks dry, water gently through the ventilation holes or carefully open the container to add water. Just be sure not to overwater—moist, not soggy, is the goal. 2. Monitor Growth As spring approaches and temperatures begin to rise, keep an eye on your containers. You’ll start to see tiny green shoots emerging! Once seedlings appear, they’ll need more attention, especially on warmer days. Make sure they’re not drying out or overheating. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/plan-your-garden-with-these-5-questions monthly 0.5 2025-01-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1735860298468-OY6LVIADFVIX56XCRZIH/IMG_6571.jpeg Garden Journal - January Planning Series Part 1: 5 Questions to Guide Your Planning https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1735859969577-RD30J7Z8AKVH27MHG8UJ/IMG_0134.jpeg Garden Journal - January Planning Series Part 1: 5 Questions to Guide Your Planning https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1735862411005-B5IQMKOPNMAU109QBW3I/IMG_0479.jpeg Garden Journal - January Planning Series Part 1: 5 Questions to Guide Your Planning https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1735862481067-YMZMPXC3YHULZH5Z99W6/IMG_5134.jpeg Garden Journal - January Planning Series Part 1: 5 Questions to Guide Your Planning https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/8a7a9a01-fd4b-4409-a0e4-e47e2b8d0f41/Nance+Spring+Garden+Set+Up.png Garden Journal - January Planning Series Part 1: 5 Questions to Guide Your Planning - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/winterwatering monthly 0.5 2025-01-14 https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/reflecting-on-2024 monthly 0.5 2025-01-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/d390992a-f3d2-4e32-aa4c-2cd607d7f9e4/B199391F-CABC-4124-BC16-584BA9F05525.jpg Garden Journal - Reflecting on 2024 - I call my Dad for every major TKG milestone. He once thought that a business based on garden boxes was the most harebrained idea a kid could have, and he stood by watching— wondering how on earth he could talk sense into me. When he came to help shovel the final wheelbarrows of soil into my first big garden installation back in April 2021, he was impressed with my luck at finding a group of talented craftsman to build a beautiful garden. And when my client’s dubious Canadian husband posed a pop-quiz question for me about rhubarb, Dad was truly shocked that I knew the answer: yep, the leaves are poisonous. Even a Southern garden girl has come across that tidbit. Little by little, I’ve been working to convince my Dad that I— his endlessly messy and overly-eager offspring—will build a successful business based on garden boxes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/710c0517-724a-4d28-b0c2-d645c707453a/A03197CF-AE23-40F8-9450-6B2BBBC2011C.jpg Garden Journal - Reflecting on 2024 - This year, 2024, I stopped having to convince him. Now I just call for the encouraging woot, “Ring that bell, baby!” he always shouts, “Let the big dogs hunt!”(Does your Dad have weird phrases like that!?) 2024 has been a year of solid and steady progress. If a business can be measured in terms of Maslow’s hierarchy, I’m not fighting for the bottom two tiers anymore. This year, I’ve leaned into my team, started referring to us as “we,” and took time in gardens to laugh, dance, and learn. We’ve built gardens, planted lots of plants, and most importantly, we’ve leaned into our purpose as a garden biz: building gardeners. You all are the most important part of this gig, and I’m thrilled to report on 2024 with you all as the key part of the story. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1734660546753-5D38NBAELGH8DXZ1X88U/IMG_6341.jpg Garden Journal - Reflecting on 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/94146751-841e-4148-9584-5290f6faa09b/IMG_3889.JPG Garden Journal - Reflecting on 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/fd298e59-ac92-4388-928b-abfa5e540162/IMG_97ACE7C47CF4-1.jpg Garden Journal - Reflecting on 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1734659592227-W9BK71D0ZNCHDP2NHXSK/IMG_5741.jpeg Garden Journal - Reflecting on 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1734658823504-RBWUM9ZNPA9BKY0EYG5A/View%2Brecent%2Bphotos.jpg Garden Journal - Reflecting on 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1734658655762-ZN30DL7BQI9UYHD3811J/IMG_6339.jpg Garden Journal - Reflecting on 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1734658574821-QY7IJSNN3AI2QY3TS9M3/IMG_6337.png Garden Journal - Reflecting on 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/260e9457-4ea6-42a7-aa16-efe682368542/IMG_4622.jpg Garden Journal - Reflecting on 2024 https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/journal-prompts-for-reflecting-on-your-garden-season monthly 0.5 2024-12-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/8f2b729b-8512-4c4f-90cc-56c191a51514/IMG_5729.jpg Garden Journal - Journal Prompts for Reflecting on Your Garden Season https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/6c173283-2d8e-4918-9f28-e2fa70e706a2/IMG_5674.jpg Garden Journal - Journal Prompts for Reflecting on Your Garden Season https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1730924081402-76ISLBAZD0TMCNA0Y4WU/4T8A0482.jpg Garden Journal - Journal Prompts for Reflecting on Your Garden Season https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1734474093842-D84NZW7TTH8UEIJI6AQJ/IMG_5737.jpeg Garden Journal - Journal Prompts for Reflecting on Your Garden Season https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1734638728431-EOEOQ2DPDTQ74I5E7ZY0/IMG_5394.jpeg Garden Journal - Journal Prompts for Reflecting on Your Garden Season https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1734638789380-F393CURGNS5P5VIPLOCI/IMG_4374.jpeg Garden Journal - Journal Prompts for Reflecting on Your Garden Season https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1734638790633-L86ER37RPWM10D8C0NF7/IMG_3745.jpeg Garden Journal - Journal Prompts for Reflecting on Your Garden Season https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1734638880829-ZLXM56QU9TUBQ3VZ1ZA9/IMG_5069.jpg Garden Journal - Journal Prompts for Reflecting on Your Garden Season https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/dreamingofgreenintheblueprint monthly 0.5 2025-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/660a69fe-3c77-469a-aead-819e4e6869ec/Screen+Shot+2024-12-04+at+6.56.30+PM.jpg Garden Journal - Garden Tour: Dreaming of Green in the Blueprint Stage - The Design Phase Ebie called TKG on June 11, 2023. Her pal down the road, Carla, had installed a beautiful garden the year before, and Ebie was excited to have her own backyard harvests. Ebie and I hopped on a Zoom call to say hey, and she shared the architect Adam Gerndt’s blueprints, walked me through her general ideas, and together, we started a Pinterest board to collect inspo pics. Ebie had travelled to Croatia years before, and she fell in love with the gardens, fountains, and outdoor artwork of the area. I had seen pictures, and whoa baby, I was on board! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/4b2a69a8-38d0-4dcc-8919-6042182341ba/IMG_0334.jpg Garden Journal - Garden Tour: Dreaming of Green in the Blueprint Stage - Construction Begins Six months later, in December of 2023, Ebie called and said they had finally broken ground and the walls were up. She invited me to see the footers for the concrete wall that would form a courtyard at the back of their carriage house. It would join the living space to a large pavilion at the back of the property. I was thrilled with the idea of three tall walls that would “boundary” the garden, creating an enclosed, intimate space. At this point, we began to mark the three “rooms” to the garden. There would be a center potager with a fountain in the middle, a dining space at the front, just under the windows, and a firepit at the back, tucked next to a set of stairs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/26d5d23f-3422-4b98-8566-0b02a0f94971/IMG_3794.jpg Garden Journal - Garden Tour: Dreaming of Green in the Blueprint Stage - Time to Walk It Out Eight months passed, and we knew that construction was happening, but man it was a slow process! There were water codes to comply with, inspections to pass, materials to bring in… but at last, in late August of 2024, Abi and I went to walk the garden space. We remeasured the design and lo and behold, the numbers from December of 2023 held true: our design would fit perfectly into this walled nook! In this picture, Abi is staging a chaste tree so that we could envision the eventual height in two corners. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/ce18d7b4-af81-4aa2-b1c2-a9dd1497cfaf/IMG_5369.jpg Garden Journal - Garden Tour: Dreaming of Green in the Blueprint Stage - Breaking Ground on the Garden In late September of 2024, 10 months after our original brainstorming sesh, we broke ground. The guys had strings set in every direction, checking for our center, where the fountain would go, and determining how much we needed to level the ground. While walking to my car at the end of day one, I noticed a crate of leftover materials that became a last-minute change to the design, and whoa did this change-up add some wow factor. We ended up using cobblestones to emphasize the beautiful lines of the garden space— as you see in the picture here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/8b09b571-b1bf-4f9a-ad56-d562c2c5bc3c/IMG_0228.jpg Garden Journal - Garden Tour: Dreaming of Green in the Blueprint Stage - The Vision Takes Shape Once the cobblestone edging was set, the guys were full-steam ahead and the beds were built and filled within a day. Here, you can see how Ecorestore wood treatment darkens the cedar so that it matches the pavilion behind it. Meanwhile, Abi was in plant mode— we were determined to create Ebie’s Croatian dream garden in the middle of a Nashville meadow. We planted grasses, bee blossom, catmint, sage and coneflower. The Vitex trees went in and looked as elegant as we had hoped, and we added allium bulbs to emerge in spring. Along the back wall, we planted climbing roses for a vertical draw, and lavender to soften the long wall along the righthand side. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/what-can-i-grow-in-winter monthly 0.5 2025-01-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1733262005999-35TSDUDLNY4VY4Q4FAWT/unsplash-image-Akf6BuBjJss.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: Can I Grow Lettuce in Winter?

Be sure to purchase seeds labeled specifically for sprouting to ensure they’re safe and untreated. Wide-mouth mason jar with a sprouting lid or cheesecloth: A sprouting lid (often made of mesh or perforated plastic) or cheesecloth secured with a rubber band allows airflow while keeping the seeds contained. I’m partial to a kit like this that come with jars and lids, plus a rack to set the jars on as they drain and keep the whole situation tidy. Filtered water: For soaking and rinsing the seeds. A dark, well-ventilated spot: A cupboard or countertop away from direct sunlight works well. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/toeveryseason-am34r monthly 0.5 2024-11-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/df00722a-e388-44d5-a11b-41f492569b1c/Screen+Shot+2024-11-20+at+3.20.11+PM.jpg Garden Journal - A Garden-Fresh Thanksgiving: Bringing Your Harvest to the Table - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/53b1c0d7-32ed-4397-8367-3f10774212f5/Screen+Shot+2024-11-21+at+6.34.29+PM.png Garden Journal - A Garden-Fresh Thanksgiving: Bringing Your Harvest to the Table - So let’s start with the table setting. My aunt used to drive from Chicago with a hilariously large armload of herbs, and she’ll go down in history as the most Martha Stewart human I know. If you’re traveling this year, you’re going to want to snip large mason jars of sage, thyme, oregano and rosemary and snuggle them into a cup holder. All of these provide perfect greenery to wrap with twine and display above plates, as a center piece, or tucked into napkins and name plates. (This pic is from my garden bud in WI, Katie Oglesby. Check out her fabulous blog for SO MUCH INSPIRATION.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1732236097538-NF9YZEJ3SNAFT4CAJEWX/unsplash-image-frJqgIoK61g.jpg Garden Journal - A Garden-Fresh Thanksgiving: Bringing Your Harvest to the Table - And moving quickly to the cocktails… Before the craze begins, I make herbal simple syrups to add to whatever the heck the family is drinking. Simple syrup is a 50/50 ratio of white sugar and water stirred together over low heat until they form a sweet syrup. (Or 50/25/25 water to honey to sugar.) Add dried or fresh rosemary, thyme, lavender or mint to the syrup just after the sugar dissolves, and whoa buddy you can take a cocktail up a notch. Try this lavender lemon drop martini from the Spruce, for example. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/f2253a30-9c19-4402-a6a6-0bf8f6a53d75/Screen+Shot+2024-11-21+at+6.43.08+PM.png Garden Journal - A Garden-Fresh Thanksgiving: Bringing Your Harvest to the Table - Eggplant Dip— you’ll be amazed. Now let’s discuss dips— the real filler of the holiday belly. While it’s inevitable that there will be the much-loved dishes of phyllo dough, jam and brie and a cheesy seven-layer-dip, I have perfected this baba ghanoush recipe from Cookie and Kate this fall and I think it will pass even the most shrewd eleven-year old taste test. Everything tastes better with garlic and tahini! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/4acbfddb-50fd-4f63-8509-a22183358423/Screen+Shot+2024-11-20+at+3.20.11+PM.png Garden Journal - A Garden-Fresh Thanksgiving: Bringing Your Harvest to the Table - Roasted Winter Squash At TKG, we don’t often plant winter squash in the garden, because— like a pumpkin— winter squash are vining plants, and they take over the garden if not grown on a vertical support. But personally, I grow as many squash as humanly possible every year, and you may want to take note if you have the space. I love them— kabocha are my favorite, delicata and honeynut tied for second, then butternut, acorn and spaghetti. Check out this beauty from the New York Times. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1732236365912-QWY1KP19TY5GE1U7C3BT/unsplash-image-KGRXqbMW0q4.jpg Garden Journal - A Garden-Fresh Thanksgiving: Bringing Your Harvest to the Table - Candied Jalapeños Remember the sage-bearing aunt that I mentioned above? Well her daughter is Mini-Martha, and I love the candied jalapeños that she makes every year and sends as a Christmas gift in tiny mason jars. These little delicacies are perfect on crackers with goat cheese— like, perfect. They are sweet and spicy and jammy and crunchy. Out of control. This year, I didn’t have enough jalapeno peppers, but I had a bucket of banana peppers, so I amped up the cayenne pepper in this recipe and let it fly. Fingers crossed my bright yellow candied banana peppers win the fam’s seal of approval. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/2c8ca62f-e25e-4ffa-913a-739c39629b6c/IMG_3641.jpg Garden Journal - A Garden-Fresh Thanksgiving: Bringing Your Harvest to the Table - Make it stand out From my spectacular family of high foreheads and constant zingers to yours… Happy Thanksgiving.

Like many other good things in life, they can take some time to get established, but once they start producing, they’re a tasty and beautiful addition to the garden. They are perennials— so they return year after year without much hand-holding from yours truly. They produce fruit in abundance— so you’ll need to make space in the garage for a second freezer! They offer both color and structure— so they’ll help make the garden design pop. Incorporating berry plants into your design seems like an obvious choice to me, so let’s explore what you need to know to get started.

Blueberry plants grow like a typical bush, and can be trimmed like a boxwood or azalea. Because of their tidy growth habit, blueberries can be placed at the entrance or in areas where you prefer a neat plant. The leaves of blueberry bushes also turn a beautiful red in the fall, so they can be eye-catching as garden colors fade later in the year. . https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/the-most-essential-garden-tool monthly 0.5 2024-10-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/9cd946c2-5587-4ba1-a4fc-649fb3240975/IMG_5512.jpg Garden Journal - The Most Essential Garden Tool - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/how-the-garden-can-help-you-eat-30-plants-a-week monthly 0.5 2025-01-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/edbc57f7-d33e-453d-b772-9770b28dfa90/IMG_2979.jpg Garden Journal - Gut Health and the Garden: The Benefits of 30 Plants a Week - Monday Breakfast: Homemade Granola, Yogurt, & Fruit From the Garden: Fall Gold Raspberries Other Plants Included: Oats, Almonds, and Blueberries Running total: 4 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/3dff3788-3ae2-4e89-8ce9-1f2e6ac285a0/IMG_5015.jpg Garden Journal - Gut Health and the Garden: The Benefits of 30 Plants a Week - Monday Dinner: Veggie Ramen From the Garden: Green Onions, Carrots, Okra, Jalapeños Other Plants included: Brown Rice and Quinoa Noodles Running total: 10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/802f3810-9697-4256-ad0a-3449c3e35191/IMG_4690.jpg Garden Journal - Gut Health and the Garden: The Benefits of 30 Plants a Week - Tuesday: Dips for Dinner— Homemade Hummus and Pico de Gallo with Corn Chips From the Garden: Tomatoes, Onions, Jalapeño, Serrano, Cilantro Microgreens Other Plants included: Chick Peas, Sesame Tahini, Lemon Juice Apparently corn chips don’t count which is lame, but it’s OK, I can still get 30 without them!

With days in the 80s, we’ve seen some lettuce bolting. As soon as you see the stems elongate, harvest the entire plant and eat it before it tastes bitter. Plant more in its place. Last month’s planting of cilantro is probably big enough to start cutting from. Parsley has been putting on some nice fresh growth after all that rain, and radishes will be ready soon. Keep harvesting your tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, okra, squash and beans. I picked cucumbers in three gardens this week! October in Nashville.

Osbaldo cleared piles and piles of dirt, and little by little, he cut a square out of the hillside, 25 ft X 25 ft. At that point, the guys built a retaining wall to hold back the soil where we had removed it. We used 4X4 cedar posts to hold up the two-foot wall, and we installed four elegant steps as the entrance. The garden space still sloped slightly downhill to ensure water run off, but the incline requires a squat, and bubble level, and some squinty eyes to see it. It's hard to notice the slope of this garden from this perspective, but it sits nestled at the base of a 2-ft retaining wall. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/25209dc3-6933-4b25-9843-b392eca10e42/IMG_3760.jpg Garden Journal - Garden Tour: Building into a Sloped Yard All around the garden, we built a four-foot cattle panel fence, which we also painted black. On the low side, we planted a row of blueberries, and on the other side, a blackberry trellis. This tall, perennial greenery will soon hide this little garden from the driveway behind me— it will be a secret hillside nook. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/when-are-my-peppers-ready-to-harvest monthly 0.5 2024-08-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1724976255249-G0QJITC6VQ3CGK9976UC/image-asset.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: When are my peppers ready to harvest? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1724976335980-EMGZHWXKL6Y5D5REAYAT/image-asset.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: When are my peppers ready to harvest? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1724976336050-7LPVJ9DLDXJZX8AUR5D0/image-asset.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: When are my peppers ready to harvest? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1724976336945-3HD2WRLHJ4UABJZWPMD9/image-asset.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: When are my peppers ready to harvest? https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/garden-tour-maximizing-the-design-in-a-small-space monthly 0.5 2024-08-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/cb8e0560-962e-4f20-8437-a9af51085829/IMG_2367.jpg Garden Journal - Garden Tour: Maximizing the Design for a Small Space Amanda’s family loved to cook, and they couldn’t wait to grow their own vegetables, but they had just moved from the New York City, and they had no clue how to get started. “Can we grow citrus here? Can we grow microgreens?” Well, yes… but let me explain. How about let’s get started with the garden? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/dac59130-0dc1-4a52-8063-062792fca60d/Screen+Shot+2024-08-15+at+9.58.05+PM.png Garden Journal - Garden Tour: Maximizing the Design for a Small Space - Brainstorming the design And then I remembered the keyhole design. It’s a design commonly used in veggie gardening. In the practical garden, it’s crafted around a central compost bin so that a gardener can throw food and plant scraps into the center and the nutrients will spread throughout. I loved the design, but I needed it to be beautiful, too. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/12fa8302-6594-4a99-a27e-fbf500422380/74275932746__8F124D2E-70A3-48EA-88A9-70C542164A97.jpg Garden Journal - Garden Tour: Maximizing the Design for a Small Space - Make it stand out The center bed you see in the photo adds an additional 32 square feet of planting space, and it's convenient in that the gardener only needs to turn around in order to harvest from one bed or the other. In that center bed, we chose to place aggressive herbs: various mints + a perimeter of strawberries. It's always nice to reserve a spot for herbs that need to be contained. When the soil was in, we shifted our sights to the flower beds around the kitchen garden. There was just enough space to add a row of eight blueberries and 6 raspberry canes. We chose varieties that will ripen throughout the summer so that Amanda's family will have a sweet surprise on many a summer morning. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/14b2d423-1659-46c1-b8ca-9f0ca96ddeae/IMG_3895.jpg Garden Journal - Garden Tour: Maximizing the Design for a Small Space - Make it stand out The last step was the addition of vertical panels. For this garden, we decided to add upright "window pane" style panels to support the cucumbers, tomatoes and beans. They will wrap around two of the three sides of the garden to keep the space open and visible from the house. Our September plan: get that greenhouse in operation. It's too beautiful to sit empty! Stay tuned! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/acd260c7-3fd4-41b0-bc66-a0a10c112849/IMG_4361.jpeg Garden Journal - Garden Tour: Maximizing the Design for a Small Space - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/how-do-i-prepare-my-soil-for-fall-gardening monthly 0.5 2024-08-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1721342290436-V7CSHUMJT3GG2GPTX80C/new%2Beggplant%2Bseedling.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: How do I prepare my soil for fall gardening? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/garden-based-biohacking monthly 0.5 2024-08-02 https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/what-ate-my-tomatoes-hornworms monthly 0.5 2024-08-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1722292669126-G9SXC1N5N5RKTVMZT2SL/unsplash-image-aNrx_eg_GoE.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: What ate my tomato plants? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1714687877153-7LTLRLICV02I176X3ONN/Screenshot+2024-05-02+at+5.09.16%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Q&A: What ate my tomato plants? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1722293171654-H5HTJS5B3NND3LSZXQ6E/IMG_4181.png Garden Journal - Q&A: What ate my tomato plants? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1722293197809-H7XDX4YJ8DWQ45A45JRO/IMG_4179.png Garden Journal - Q&A: What ate my tomato plants? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1722294167452-0SRSOBA6NQLDWCG3S78S/unsplash-image-gCwZSrrdSLE.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: What ate my tomato plants? https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/10-ways-to-preserve-and-enjoy-your-herb-harvest monthly 0.5 2024-09-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1722366595756-T59LK556MB458UCBV14Y/unsplash-image-ZW8dIPP4S4U.jpg Garden Journal - 10 Ways To Preserve and Enjoy Your Herb Harvest https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1722366595386-4G3NIWZKE0ODENZPXWOV/unsplash-image-2lEoPVy3oJ0.jpg Garden Journal - 10 Ways To Preserve and Enjoy Your Herb Harvest https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1722366700458-WNN5YSE0ZR0OJFX8WI5I/unsplash-image-k94FbpisWto.jpg Garden Journal - 10 Ways To Preserve and Enjoy Your Herb Harvest https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1722366793608-SONT5K9VHKBH4FXS0GAD/unsplash-image-yPal9OOzAxg.jpg Garden Journal - 10 Ways To Preserve and Enjoy Your Herb Harvest https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/should-we-be-planting-summer-or-fall-veggies-right-now-mid-july monthly 0.5 2024-07-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1714687875780-MXTF4YD5LVXOJ8LF32IW/Screenshot+2024-05-02+at+5.06.59%E2%80%AFPM.png Garden Journal - Q&A: Should we be planting summer or fall veggies right now?

She and her kids had started the year before with a small metal box near the mailbox, she said, and it had become a neighborhood focal point. This year, Lauren wanted to take the garden to the next level. There was no HOA, no reason to hide the garden in the backyard. The whole neighborhood was eager to see the flowers sprouting, the tomatoes turning red. They loved their summer walks around the block and the chit chat about pepper varieties. This garden was all about community. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/14032e9d-dc11-4815-bd2a-73b2eee3a774/IMG_2880.JPG Garden Journal - Cultivating Community in a Front Yard Garden - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/bad2a2f7-e58f-45cd-a6ca-60001b69d084/IMG_3168.jpg Garden Journal - Cultivating Community in a Front Yard Garden - AFTER Lauren’s front yard garden is a a gathering spot for joggers, dog-walkers, texting teens out to escape their parents, and parents walking the baby after dinner. It was far more effective at slowing traffic than the speed bumps that are popping up all over town. The garden entices people to slow down, notice the blooms, and share a moment of delight with a neighbor. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/should-i-prune-the-suckers-from-my-tomato-plants monthly 0.5 2024-06-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1717516280527-W6WS9L0O4W8Q5KMO6I2W/image-asset.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: Should I prune the suckers from my tomato plants? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/how-long-should-i-run-my-drip-irrigation monthly 0.5 2024-06-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/a1a99768-46c6-4599-b863-b4c858d82b46/IMG_1887.jpg Garden Journal - Q&A: How long should I run my drip irrigation? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/should-i-plant-seeds-or-seedlings monthly 0.5 2025-04-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1717104363667-ZM7VAT3HGNA6OQEWB3NU/image-asset.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: Should I plant seeds or seedlings? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/how-do-you-know-when-garlic-is-ready-to-harvest monthly 0.5 2025-01-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1717103994507-W9EYI5UTUQR5FC27G1C7/image-asset.jpeg Garden Journal - Q&A: How do you know when garlic is ready to harvest? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/stone-and-steel monthly 0.5 2025-02-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1e6ba4e5-c819-4797-aa50-4337df7f8175/IMG_2414.jpeg Garden Journal - Stone and Steel Brett, a builder and Big Green Egg aficionado, wanted a garden near the grill. Linsey, a seasoned gardener, designer and certified beauty-hunter, knew that raised beds off the patio would complete the backyard space. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/e06d6c85-eb86-4c19-b611-bd6b402860d1/IMG_0878.jpg Garden Journal - Stone and Steel - Step one, we needed to take out the overgrown shrubs and extend the patio. The TKG team was quick with saws and stump grinders, and began their favorite task: masonry. The property is covered with old limestone walls, and with the help of our clients’ stylistic eyes, we built a ledge that mimics the gray, chunky stone. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/798c6dbd-1bb7-4195-849f-c1c1d9a421f8/IMG_2256.jpeg Garden Journal - Stone and Steel - Step four: Plant them up! We planted this garden in late April, and it is now home to tomatoes and squash, peppers, basil, lettuce and cucumber. To complete the space, Linsey stumbled on some vintage iron obelisks, and we grouped various sizes on either side of the raised bed so as not to ruin the view from the patio. Only a few nights later, Brett was on the Big Green Egg, and Linsey was enjoying a slow morning with her kitchen garden. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/gardenblog/early-may-garden-to-do-list

Once hatched, the larvae bore inside the stem and grow and feed until the stem eventually splits and your plant dies. What to do? You can hunt daily for the eggs and destroy, inject the stems of your squash plants with 1ml BT every 7 days, or replace your squash plants when they succumb to the pest. Many gardeners regularly sow squash seeds behind their squash plants so there are new plants ready to climb when the squash vine borer destroys the older plant. https://www.tennesseekitchengardens.com/growing-guides/tomato monthly 0.5 2024-05-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1715957959229-Y4DJ3V776QIRE1CVQZAJ/image-asset.jpeg Growing Guides - Tomatoes - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1714687874971-BAVR459Q6PS6H6N6WYD6/Screenshot+2024-05-02+at+5.06.14%E2%80%AFPM.png Growing Guides - Tomatoes - seeds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1714687876682-69XCF7ZVE5EMSKO1ZUO3/Screenshot+2024-05-02+at+5.08.08%E2%80%AFPM.png Growing Guides - Tomatoes - first leaves (cotyledons) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1714687875780-MXTF4YD5LVXOJ8LF32IW/Screenshot+2024-05-02+at+5.06.59%E2%80%AFPM.png Growing Guides - Tomatoes - at 3 weeks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1714687876134-4J0YXN6EXHNYQ07LEYYB/Screenshot+2024-05-02+at+5.07.38%E2%80%AFPM.png Growing Guides - Tomatoes - young plant https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1714687878009-LFUJJKD90JHE9LLYJJRP/Screenshot+2024-05-02+at+5.10.34%E2%80%AFPM.png Growing Guides - Tomatoes - flowers before the fruit https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1715958882649-N8LQ495F01JVFXVPWL21/image-asset.jpeg Growing Guides - Tomatoes - immature fruit https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1714687877623-WWKEI9C1NVQX1VX3CQ82/Screenshot+2024-05-02+at+5.10.04%E2%80%AFPM.png Growing Guides - Tomatoes - almost ready https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1714687874818-8SKAOORB8UMQ0CJPY6X3/Screenshot+2024-05-02+at+4.38.41%E2%80%AFPM.png Growing Guides - Tomatoes - time to harvest https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f60fc65059c2a44332749d3/1715968258842-CH0ZTX4YKJEDB4XDTKOZ/image-asset.jpeg Growing Guides - Tomatoes - Aphids Treat with neem oil or insecticidal soap, or spray them off with water.

This combination also fits beautifully on a hillside-- just imagine the terraced gardens of Italy or Greece! We recommend arches or obelisks for vertical appeal and climbing plants. Accessible from all sides, the trio can be perfect when the kiddos get involved in the garden.
