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.

Spirits














We bottled the wine in March. 2010 is a good wine year for our Concord.

We started the Rhubarb in early May. We always use the frozen rhubarb as it juices up nicer and a lot less work than pounding the fresh to get it to juice well. There is rhubarb, sugar and water only in our rhubarb.
