Channeling Sophie's Garden

Carol's garden is in Port Hope MI, in a rural, lakeside community. She has lots of space and expertise. Laura' garden is located in Centralia WA, in a small suburban yard challenged by access to sun and space. Debbie's garden is in Deckerville MI, in a smaller rural yard, where rules are ignored.

Each of us is applying what we learned at at our mother's and grandmother's knees in space once owned by Sophie Mayer Birg Harter on Rangeline Road. Sophie immigrated to Detroit in 1908 from Heufeld, a once German (Donauschwaben) community of Hungary. Her hope lives on.

Overnight lows dip - taking cover

Our unseasonably high level of rainfall is now accompanied by unseasonably low overnight temps. Most everything is fine, but my young chard, beets, radishes, mustard and lettuce need some protection. These should also help in the daytime to create some more warmth and help them grow.
