At Cottage Seed, we believe summer is for savoring—not stressing—and some of the season’s most delicious fruits are also the easiest to grow. Whether you’re new to gardening or a seasoned organic grower looking for a little less upkeep this year, these low-work summer fruits will keep your baskets full and your kitchen bursting with flavor. Come take a walk with us . . . https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/4460a213-125a-49ec-aa8a-500a7b29bf2f/strawberries.PNG Garden Journal - Low-Work, High-Flavor: Easy Summer Fruit - 1. Strawberries: Sweet Simplicity Few things say summer like a bowl of fresh strawberries. These perennials are surprisingly low-maintenance once established. Plant them in a sunny spot with well-drained soil, give them a little mulch to keep the weeds down, and they’ll reward you with juicy red berries year after year. Plus, kids love picking them—no ladder required. Seed tip: June-bearing varieties produce a heavy crop over a few weeks, while everbearing types give you smaller flushes all summer long. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/9f845d90-8ffc-4a93-bef8-30599cb0efdc/raspberries.PNG Garden Journal - Low-Work, High-Flavor: Easy Summer Fruit - 2. Raspberries: A Tangle of Treasure Raspberries practically grow themselves once they get going. With minimal pruning and decent sun, these hardy canes will produce plump, tart-sweet berries perfect for snacking, baking, or preserving. They’re also incredibly resilient and can tolerate a bit of garden neglect—ideal for busy summer schedules. Seed tip: Choose a mix of summer-bearing and fall-bearing types to extend your harvest. In our garden, we have a gorgeous arch covered with Raspberries, Boysenberries, and Blackberries. Berry vines and bushes are very easy to trellis or create an espalier version - if you have the space. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/c5814d7e-8571-4338-850b-7e93746413dc/blackberries.PNG Garden Journal - Low-Work, High-Flavor: Easy Summer Fruit - 3. Blackberries: Wild Flavor, Tamed Blackberries may conjure up memories of foraging on trails, but they’re just as happy in a backyard garden. Thornless varieties are especially popular for easy picking. Once planted, they’ll come back stronger each year and need little more than sun, space, and a trellis or fence to climb. Bonus: Their arching canes make a natural barrier—perfect if you’re looking to create a fruit hedge. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/bd1d9b0c-f1d3-4df7-8886-e5b6d5391fcd/cantaloupe.JPG Garden Journal - Low-Work, High-Flavor: Easy Summer Fruit - 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/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/ea036478-96e1-4c1e-bdce-947c70f0c437/squash-1.PNG Garden Journal - Low-Work, High-Flavor: Easy Summer Fruit - 5. Summer Squash: Yes, It’s a Fruit Technically a fruit (we won’t tell if you still call it a veggie), summer squash like zucchini is a garden MVP. These plants are prolific—plant just a few seeds, and you might be sharing baskets with friends and neighbors in no time. Squash thrives in heat, needs minimal care, and is perfect for grilling, spiralizing, or tossing into summer pastas. Yum! Best thing is, your kids will love them too. Our organic, open-pollinated squash varieties also mean you can save seeds for next year—just another way nature pays you back. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/3e7c58bb-8906-4142-b2ae-0cc030752618/trellis.PNG Garden Journal - Low-Work, High-Flavor: Easy Summer Fruit - Make it stand out Berries on a trellis with straw mulch in a cottage raised bed. #cottageseed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/602a1bd1-b693-4a5d-a0f5-e30cc1522096/butternut-seeds.PNG Garden Journal - Low-Work, High-Flavor: Easy Summer Fruit - Grow Goodness, Naturally You don’t need acres of land or hours of labor to enjoy fresh, organic fruit this summer.

With savings earned tunneling for the Boston subway, he bought land near Fresno, California. His heart sank when he struck the soil—a brutal, unforgiving layer of hardpan clay and rock, nearly 6 feet deep, as impenetrable as concrete. The surface baked under a relentless sun; the earth below refused water and roots. Most would have surrendered. Forestiere saw a challenge worthy of his name—which fittingly means “woodsman” or “forester.” Armed only with a pickaxe, shovel, and staggering determination, Baldasare began to dig. Not dig-up, but down. For over 40 years, he chiseled away at the unyielding earth, carving out an astonishing subterranean world. He didn’t just dig cellars; he sculpted. Courtyards open to the sky captured precious rainwater. Arched passageways wound through cool, earthen halls. Living quarters, a chapel, and even fishponds emerged from the gloom. But the true marvel? His garden. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/69d5fc86-442a-459f-88f2-6bbbcaea6eed/005.JPG Garden Journal - The Unbroken Ground: Honoring the Grit of Gardeners Who Defy the Earth Forestiere understood what the surface denied him, the underground could provide. He planted fruit trees in sunken courtyards—citrus, figs, grapes, even a single, cherished avocado—grafting multiple varieties onto single rootstocks to maximize bounty in minimal space. Vines cascaded down walls; herbs flourished in niches. The earth itself became his ally: insulating roots from scorching summers, sheltering tender growth from winter frosts. He created a self-sustaining microclimate—a hidden, edible landscape thriving where nothing should have grown. His “Forestiere Underground Gardens” weren’t just functional; they were breathtakingly beautiful—a testament to human ingenuity married with profound respect for nature’s rhythms. He didn’t conquer the harsh soil; he collaborated with it, turning adversity into abundance through sheer, unwavering grit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/9a99e51a-3a64-4b1e-843f-2052fb891087/004a.png Garden Journal - The Unbroken Ground: Honoring the Grit of Gardeners Who Defy the Earth - The Seed of Resilience Blooms Anew Baldasare Forestiere’s story isn’t just a dusty relic of the past. It’s a beacon for every gardener staring down their own “hardpan”—whether it’s thin mountain soil, relentless urban gravel, parched desert earth, or compacted clay. It reminds us that fertility isn’t just found; it’s forged. It’s built with calloused hands, patient observation, and an unshakeable belief that life will find a way. At Cottage Seed, we stand in awe of this legacy. We believe the spirit of pioneers like Baldasare lives on in every packet of seeds we carefully select. Our mission is to provide you with the same resilient heart he embodied: Organic & Non-GMO: Like Forestiere working with nature, not against it, our seeds are nurtured without synthetic chemicals or genetic modification. They carry the inherent strength of plants adapted naturally over generations. Open-Pollinated: These seeds are stewards of diversity and history. They can be saved year after year, adapting to your unique conditions—be it a sun-drenched balcony, a windy hillside, or yes, even challenging soil. They possess the genetic flexibility to thrive where others might falter. Hearted for Hardiness: We seek out and breed varieties known for their toughness—tomatoes that shrug off drought, beans that climb through cool fog, greens that bolt slowly in heat, roots that push through heavy earth. They are selected not just for flavor, but for fortitude. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/e3a33020-af30-480d-9900-4ea8f298667b/003.JPG Garden Journal - The Unbroken Ground: Honoring the Grit of Gardeners Who Defy the Earth - Plant with the Spirit of the Pioneer Baldasare Forestiere didn’t wait for perfect ground. He created his own perfect ground, several feet below the surface. He reminds us that the most bountiful gardens often spring from the most determined hearts, and the most resilient seeds. Channel Your Inner Forestiere: 4 Modern Tactics for Tough Soil Like Baldasare sculpting abundance beneath the hardpan, today’s gardeners can defy poor soil with smart strategies. Here’s how to harness his spirit: Build Up, Not Just Down (Raised Beds & Berms): Like Baldasare creating fertile courtyards below, build fertile ground above. Construct raised beds filled with high-quality compost, aged manure, and mineral-rich topsoil. Shape mounds (berms) around moisture-loving plants. This instantly creates deep, loose, nutrient-dense root zones, bypassing compacted clay, rock, or sand beneath. Control your soil destiny! Embrace the “Underground Sponge” (Hugelkultur-Inspired Beds): Following Forestiere’s use of buried organic matter for moisture and warmth, try hugelkultur principles. Bury logs, branches, leaves, and straw deep within raised beds or trenches. As this woody core decomposes slowly underground, it acts like a giant sponge, retaining rainwater and releasing nutrients for years – mimicking the self-sustaining fertility of his sunken gardens. Perfect for arid or quick-draining soils. Brew Liquid Gold (Compost Teas): Forestiere nurtured life in unlikely places; supercharge your soil biology. Brew nutrient-rich, microbially active compost tea. Regularly applying this “liquid gold” inoculates poor soil with beneficial bacteria and fungi, building structure, unlocking trapped minerals, and helping plants access nutrients – just as Baldasare fostered life in his underground ecosystem. Choose the Hardy Pioneers (Select Resilient Varieties): Forestiere knew success started with the right plant. Invest in high quality seeds bred for grit. Seek out open-pollinated, organic varieties specifically known for deep roots, drought tolerance, disease resistance, or ability to thrive in marginal soils, like our kale, deep-rooted carrots, or resilient beans. These genetic powerhouses, like Baldasare himself, are built to adapt and overcome. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/b678da6c-91b1-4d69-8670-04b6cd24e222/soil.PNG Garden Journal - The Unbroken Ground: Honoring the Grit of Gardeners Who Defy the Earth - Plant with courage. Tend with tenacity. Harvest with hope. So, when you face that stubborn patch of earth, remember the man who dug his dreams out of stone. Remember that grit, paired with the right seed, can transform the impossible. Cottage Seed doesn’t just sell seeds; we offer partners in perseverance. We provide the hearty, open-pollinated, organic beginnings that carry the same rugged spirit Baldasare embodied—seeds bred to endure, adapt, and flourish against the odds. Your garden, no matter the soil, is a testament to the unbroken ground within you. Let’s grow something extraordinary, together! https://www.cottageseed.com/journal-1/frost-and-food monthly 0.5 2024-12-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/3bcdac23-5d96-4dd4-80b6-4acd057d49d8/24-5-winter.JPG Garden Journal - Frost and Food - 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/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/c8577b50-7c52-4a9e-bc9e-35e6f99b35c0/cabbage.JPG Garden Journal - Frost and Food - Seeds that Brave Winter. Cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, carrot, potato, onion, lettuce leaf, radish, kale, spinach, and Swiss chard can be grown in raised beds during winter. For the best results, include straw mulch or leaf litter, and extra compost, to help insulate the soil. I generally cover my seedlings with 9mm plastic to keep the chill away. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/510b019f-90ea-4afe-ac6e-a1854a84ecdd/kale.JPG Garden Journal - Frost and Food - Our Favorite - Curly Kale. Curly kale is packed with nutrients and perfect cooked or served raw in salads. Some folks are not a fan of this lively green, because the kale was “too strong” for their taste. Kale’s taste strengthens as it matures or is exposed to hot temperatures. If however, you’re willing to give it a second try, pick the leaves early, while they are young, tender and sweet, and you may discover this truly delicious little wonder. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/080a7a7c-8f81-444f-a6ae-465373bcf948/greenhouse.JPG Garden Journal - Frost and Food - Warmth From Many Sources. Not everyone has the room or resources for a permanent greenhouse. I love them. I wish I had more! You can however use a few simple tricks to get a production result that is similar to what is achieved in a greenhouse. Thick layers of straw, compost, leaf litter will retain the warmth of the limited sun in winter. Watch for weeds or undesired growth and pick them as soon as they start. Small hoops with plastic covers over low-rows will provide a greenhouse effect. We use these but as we get snow loads and high winds, we run a 1x1 pole or a pvc tube along the top as a ridge post and anchor them at the base with stones, bricks, or similar materials to prevent them from flying away. Items as heat sinks such as dark colored buckets with lids filled with water to keep things warm. You can use any plastic jars, old liter bottles, etc. and fill them with red (food coloring) water. Any of these placed under your plastic and next to your plants will help keep them warm. If you are growing seedlings for planting later, or want an easy winter food, like microgreens, help keep them warm with an electric warming pad under the shallow grow tray. (some offer solar or battery power). https://www.cottageseed.com/journal-1/natural-pest-control monthly 0.5 2024-03-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/63b0968f-0fc9-41a7-9a20-c8577904f5f6/ladybugs.JPG Garden Journal - Natural Pest Control - 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/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/095fd0e0-a486-47c9-a1f1-55970f34416f/cane-borers-rose-hydrang-berries.JPG Garden Journal - Natural Pest Control Cane Borers. These little critters can severely damage or destroy your raspberries, blackberries, hydrangea, and rose plants fairly quickly if left untreated. To be honest, I had no idea what this was a few years ago! Treat this problem by cutting well below the hole. If you make a cut and the hole continues, cut beneath again until there are no holes. You can swab the cut area with some warm beeswax mixed with Cayenne pepper (just a dash will do) to deter any new cane borers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/f0838e4a-c5a6-4396-9a49-21560937e317/hornworm.JPG Garden Journal - Natural Pest Control - Hornworms. Hornworms are predominantly attracted to tomato plants, but they’re also attracted to the leaves of others in the nightshade family such as Tomatillo, Eggplant, and Potato. Pick them off and toss them in the trash (or feed to your hens!) before they lay eggs. If the above fails, take additional measures. Hornworms overwinter in the soil in a pupae stage before becoming spring moths that start the next season's egg laying. Tilling your garden soil after your harvest and again in early spring can kill 90% or more of the overwintering pests and reduce Hornworm problems for the coming year! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/00137317-6ad1-42b7-b109-112638f7017b/aphid.JPG Garden Journal - Natural Pest Control Aphids. When I first planted my rose garden, I couldn’t believe how many lovely new rose buds I had in the first year. By the second year, the aphids had arrived just happy to suck dry my tender juicy buds. My first method of combating these little suckers, was to spray them off with a strong burst of hose water every morning until I didn’t see them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/8f3d8cbf-55ca-435a-8900-28d3a7069262/ladybugs.JPG Garden Journal - Natural Pest Control Second, the best way of keeping aphids at bay, is to use the natural borax Ant Traps so that you don’t have Ants accommodating the aphids - yes, that is a thing! Ants love to drink the sweet nectar that the Aphids produce from your darling plants. Oh the symbiotic relationship must come to an end! Therefore, the Ants around your plants must go. Lastly, ladybugs love to eat aphids and other pests. The ladybug solution that many of us use, can be improved by placing the ladies on your plants in the evening, and follow by covering the plants with plastic. Leave the plastic on through the next morning, but remove it by midday so as not to overheat or kill the ladybugs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/2c23b36a-ffc4-4a64-b4bd-2f13517521c9/leaf+miners.JPG Garden Journal - Natural Pest Control - Leaf Miners and Powdery Mildew Years ago Leaf miners loved my squash plant leaves as well as my pie pumpkin leaves. They don’t hurt the fruit and are not harmful, per se. Like powdery mildew, which its spores are in many garden soils, Leaf Miners can block the photosynthesis and greatly reduce your plant’s ability to produce large or abundant fruit. Thankfully, there’s an easy solution to both leaf miners and powdery mildew! As soon as you see anything resembling this design or a powdery substance, gently pick-off those leaves and throw them in the trash (not the compost bin!). You can then spray a neem solution on the remaining healthy leaves to prevent any remaining eggs from hatching (or mildew spores from growing). Some gardeners prefer to use commercial Neem Oil, but I prefer to use a concentration of Neem Queen Tea (Product of USA). Not only is it great for your own health, it is great for your plants too! Just spray a little on plant leaves in early morning each day until problem is resolved, usually just 2-3 applications are needed. For powdery mildew problems, be sure to only water plants when truly needed, and do not spray leaves, as splashing of soil on to the plant can cause additional powdery mildew spores to grow. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/1a9e0bcf-9856-49d1-84c1-bbf465359d48/slugs-snails.JPG Garden Journal - Natural Pest Control - Snails & Slug Control We don’t currently have a snail or slug problem, but when we did, we searched all over the Internet for a solution. We found many people creating beer traps and others using sticky traps. All those were too smelly, sticky, and messy for me. I wanted something that I didn’t have to “buy” or mess with. My grandmother loved gardens and nature walks. She’d take trips to the mountains when her children were small. One thing she used from observation alone - was Cayenne Pepper! Ground Cayenne pepper would be sprinkled around plants to deter snails, slugs, and many other intruding pests. I tried it, and it worked! I have zero of these pests now. I also use it for gopher control! Just sprinkle it down a gopher hole and they’ll head the other direction. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/084bcf7f-f433-4fba-836c-bd2da0d451c2/mustard.JPG Garden Journal - Natural Pest Control - Mustard. Mustard is useful in combating flea beetle larvae, invasive jumping worms, aphids, spider mites, and moth caterpillars. Mustard powder may be used similarly to how we use Cayenne Pepper. You may sprinkle it around plants, but don’t do so on a windy day, or if you have kids or pets who may be in contact with it. It can burn the eyes and skin, and cause breathing issues if inhaled. It is toxic to pets if they eat it, and may become sick if they sniff it. We found that the best way to use Mustard is to use it as a foliar spray, and to dilute it. We use 1/4 cup of mustard powder in a gallon of water. Then, we add one tablespoon of liquid organic non-toxic dish soap, and (optional) two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. Caution: some apple cider vinegar contains fruit treated with the “Apeel” forever chemicals, so please do your research. Stir all of this together and then spray it on your plants first thing in the morning, or last thing at night. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/1710274495278-251CSEARXIUHBHGK1H2Y/pinks.JPG Garden Journal - Natural Pest Control https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/1710274499932-YGYNSA396EAULXTBYUE7/pinkhoneysuckle.JPG Garden Journal - Natural Pest Control https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/1710274558214-03F85PZ5GEPRT5698KSY/mantis.JPG Garden Journal - Natural Pest Control https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/1710274626024-3OW8Q5OBX4YSONJ4ZGWM/gerty.JPG Garden Journal - Natural Pest Control https://www.cottageseed.com/journal-1/winter-surprises monthly 0.5 2024-03-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/af7a3328-b60a-4f82-aa94-59603afdc54a/IMG_1091.jpg Garden Journal - Winter Surprises - Baby Carrots left over from the harvest and seed gathering.

Lavender not only makes great kid-friendly bouquets, it’s scent will surely calm and sooth the active little ones. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/d775ea0e-6bd7-4880-9602-e19bb71328f8/mint.JPG Garden Journal - Growing Kid-friendly Bouquets - 5. Mint Fast-growing mint is a fun and rewarding plant to grow. The kids can grow it outside in the ground, in an outdoor container, or inside on a windowsill. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/1de32b85-4e46-432c-a070-c62152b56291/nasturtium2.JPG Garden Journal - Growing Kid-friendly Bouquets - 6. Nasturtium These are easy flowers to grow, with blue-green leaves and gorgeous blooms, they grow in climbing or mound forms. Nasturtiums come in an array of colors from peach and red to coral and rose and show off all season until frost. But the coolest thing about both the flowers and the leaves is that they're edible, so kids can toss them on summer salads and tasty no-bake desserts. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/382ab8eb-eff0-4ab8-88c9-f0c87a528bb9/rosemary2.JPG Garden Journal - Growing Kid-friendly Bouquets - 7. Rosemary A member of the mint family, Rosemary in a favorite in a kids garden as it has lovely violet colored flowers and needs very little attention. Gather flowering branches in the morning and gently pinch off the tender tops (easier for kids) as the lower, more woody stalks, may require the use of garden shears. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/c789fe05-b2cf-42d3-b4eb-0af7fc41af7a/strawberry+flowers+and+fruit.JPG Garden Journal - Growing Kid-friendly Bouquets - 8. Strawberry Kids love picking the flowers of the Strawberry bush as much as the bright berries fresh off the plant. New strawberry varieties are pretty, compact plants that produce fruit all season long and thrive in containers and hanging baskets. It's possible to grow these from seed, but it takes time. Look for plants, which will bear fruit the first season. Parental caution, strawberries (like peanuts) are not safe food choices for everyone. Please watch your child carefully for signs of allergic reactions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/3ec3bd36-8189-46ed-9b47-067955ea7864/sweet+alyssum+carpet+of+snow.JPG Garden Journal - Growing Kid-friendly Bouquets - 9. Sweet Alyssum This lacy-looking annual plant has a sweet fragrance that’s easily carried on in the breeze. Pollinators love it. Plus, it’s a sturdy plant that looks wonderful cascading out of window boxes and hanging baskets alongside other plants. And because it can withstand a light frost, it lasts a long time in the garden. It’s also easy for kids to pick and collect. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/13753951-138d-4822-b619-717eda56878b/thyme.JPG Garden Journal - Growing Kid-friendly Bouquets - 10. Thyme Like Rosemary, Thyme is a member of the mint family. Thyme is easy to grow and easy for kids to pick and create bouquets. Thyme is frequently prepared as tea as it contains many essential oils and antimicrobial properties. https://www.cottageseed.com/journal-1/we-planted-a-prayer-garden monthly 0.5 2024-01-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/eab4a891-332a-4c08-bdd0-f7c79089eb3a/angel.png Garden Journal - We planted a Prayer Garden - Elements of a Prayer Garden Please join us in our journey on how we created a simple and cozy prayer setting for our family and how you can do that too. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/0a798a15-2ce6-4b56-b677-52ee6134b22e/start.JPG Garden Journal - We planted a Prayer Garden - Here is the bare spot we started with. There was a pile of stones scattered in one corner, and others that looked like a funky and broken heart shape. The broken heart was truly symbolic for a prayer garden. God fixes all of the broken hearted! We brought all of the stones together to build up a small border for new plantings. The border already had a tall stone on one side that the birds frequently stood on. It was too deep to move without a lot of effort, so we decided to keep it there. An old deteriorating bench from the previous owners was left on the property, so we repaired it, moved it into this space. We then created a stone path with flagstones, that meandered into and out of the “sunken” prayer area. Boy did we move a lot of dirt! In the new stone planter, we added branches and leaves as a base before adding raised bed soil. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/13556d53-eadd-448d-ae9d-90a758437c5d/middle.JPG Garden Journal - We planted a Prayer Garden - We knew that with all of our other obligations, we wanted a relatively no-fuss, and easy to care for prayer garden. We also didn’t want to attract more gophers than we already had. So we planted rosemary, oregano (lots!), nasturtium, aromatic herbs, narcissus bulbs, and potted geraniums. If you don’t have a lot of space, a small bench, a little fountain, and potted plants make a great little prayer corner. Give it a try! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/103f5fc1-cb00-4b07-bffd-dbbfb8fffacc/middle2.JPG Garden Journal - We planted a Prayer Garden - There was an existing small water feature and a wisteria in this area, whose heavenly fragrance was perfect for a prayer setting. We also planted Russian Sage, Salvia yangii, previously known as Perovskia atriplicifolia, which is pictured here toward the walkway. It’s striking when in bloom with lovely purple flowers. It attracts pollenators and is easy to care for, a low water consumer, and is not only self-seeding, but you can also grow more from cuttings. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6556fa0e664f7204f1cd98d3/fb14e83b-68dd-44b8-9125-77a083d53a14/final.JPG Garden Journal - We planted a Prayer Garden - In the end, all of the work was worth it. We did lose the ground cover you see in the bottom right of this image, but we added some brightly painted songbird houses which seemed to make the other plant colors “pop.” I hope our journey inspires you to create a simple Prayer Garden of your own. https://www.cottageseed.com/journal-1/tag/%23PoorSoil monthly 0.5 https://www.cottageseed.com/journal-1/tag/easy+to+grow monthly 0.5
