Can you tell I'm lovin' all that minty stuff?
You CAN take control of your life, your health, and your happiness...
It starts with homegrown, nutrient-dense food!
All fruits and vegetables start losing precious nutrients as soon as they’re picked. So how can you tell how fresh and healthy grocery store produce actually is? For some crops, you can be eating them weeks or even months later.
For example, did you know that most grocery store carrots are 1 to 9 months old depending on when you buy them?
Cold storage does help fresh vegetables last longer. But chemical coatings, gasses, waxes, and soy-based proteins are also used to keep produce from spoiling on the long trip from the farm to your table. And they aren’t very good for your immune system, either.
The true solution to better health and better food is right in your backyard… It's gardening!
Because gardens HEAL.
When you plant a garden, you aren’t just growing your own food. You’re planting seeds of hope.
Hope for a healthier body with less pain and more energy.
Hope that you can feed your family and rely less on the grocery store.
Hope that you’re healing the planet for your kids and grandkids.
We call them seeds of hope because gardening gives you real, solid proof that you’re taking a step forward to claim your health and independence.
In the spirit of garden hope, we’d like to invite you to the 7th Annual Superfood Garden Summit.
From July 17th-21st, 15+ visionary growers will share with you their wisdom to supercharge your garden…and your health! When you have experts in your corner helping you make great garden choices, growing food becomes simple.
Here are just a few things you’ll discover in this online event:
The simple steps to growing nutrient-dense superfoods… anywhere, all year long.
Common mistakes to avoid so you can grow a more abundant harvest with less work.
An action plan to create NOW to be READY for your peak growing season so you can avoid the overwhelm.
How to grow bigger, healthier harvests by optimizing the nutrient density of all your edible plants.
Start supercharging your soil and choosing a composting system to make your gardening easier and more bountiful.

| Are you a Marvel movie fan? I am, and I was a comic book nerd before that. Why? Because I love the idea of everyday people having secret super powers. It's just something I love. Which is why one of my favorite events every year is the Superfood Garden Summit. It is all about how a normal everyday garden can grow some "super powers". I am going to have a LOT more to tell you about it next week but I saw that registration was opening today so I figured I would shoot you a quick email.

It's 108 deg F today 
My "new zealand" spinach was doing well but being in containers, I had to water them every day. Forgot today and they are fried! I don't thin they will survive the summers here (or need to have less direct sunlight)
My "new zealand" spinach was doing well but being in containers, I had to water them every day. Forgot today and they are fried! I don't thin they will survive the summers here (or need to have less direct sunlight)
Can you put a lattice panel up to give them partial shade. That's a true shame spinach is so good. You might grow it for baby leaves for salads, I use spinach instead of lettuce in most of my saladsIt's 108 deg F today

This guidebook from Food Revolution Network contains a detailed list of 10 superfoods that have documented cancer-fighting capabilities and improve overall cell health, so you can enjoy delicious foods while reducing your cancer risk. You’ll also learn which foods have been correlated with an increased risk of cancer, so you can eliminate or reduce them from your diet.

Earth Conscious Life created an inspiring, award-winning film about the solutions Earth so desperately needs!

The focus of this film is on soil, food, and the future of our species — told through the lens of three extraordinary and very likable characters and their journeys as solutionaries. The Earth Conscious Life team spent over five years making this movie. This is a story that needs to be told — and it is told VERY well.

I grew it years ago in hanging container... worked great (in this same city) but it only got morning light. The small one in a small clay pot is toast but the ones in a bigger container came back. They have been in the shade all day. Need to find a good spot to hang it (container came with a hanger)
By the way, it's not spinach (just resembles and sort of tastes like it... and okra) It's high in oxalic acid so best to cook it or at least par-boil a couple minutes.
If you’ve ever been through a hard season fighting pests, diseases, or weeds... you’ll probably relate to this.
And if you’ve been gardening for a while and haven’t dealt with pests, diseases or weeds, we’d love to talk to you.
Do you find yourself frustrated at fighting off more pests, diseases and weeds than you could shake a rake at?Cabbage moths all over your crops … Spotted wilt making its way through your tomatoes … Weeds choking out your zucchini plants
Playing a game of “whack-a-mole” running from problem to problem can be discouraging. And if you’ve ever had similar problems before, you know how much this can drain the joy for our gardens.
Your garden starts to become a “chore” instead of a hobby that you love!
But do you want you in on a little secret?
You can get Mother Nature to get rid of pests, diseases, and weeds for you!
Yes, it sounds incredible or too good to be true. But we’ve seen it (and taught it to others like you) firsthand. And you can do this all with completely organic methods that show these uninvited guests the door.
This way you can enjoy the fruits of your labor instead of having it stolen right out of your own backyard by these unwelcome guests.
We have a download that will help you get on the path to doing this (more on this in a minute).
You see the secret is that most experienced gardeners we know hardly spend any time controlling or treating pests, diseases and weeds.
Do you want to know why they’re able to do this?
Because they have the right mindset to stop these guests cold before they ever become a problem!
Experienced gardeners are “clued in” to some foundational truths like:
Pests are part of your garden’s ecosystem just like worms, bees, bacteria, and fungi. And you can make each of these creatures “grow” or “shrink” by controlling the conditions in your garden first.
Your garden is speaking to you every day! That means you have to learn how to listen and pay attention to the signs of pests & diseases before they even show up to cause trouble.
Your plants have built in defense mechanisms that you can activate and strengthen with the right attention and care.
Experts know intuitively that pests, diseases and weeds are only a symptom of the deeper problem… their gardening mindset!
Lucky for all of us, there’s a lot of good news here.
You can gain the mindset of a wise, experienced gardener in just a few hours!
We have a whole downloadable worksheet for it too! And we want you to have it for FREE so you can start “thinking” your way to a happier, healthier garden today:
>>> Download Your Free Copy of Successful Pest Management for the Organic Grower
You’ll get the same exercises we teach our students on how to control pests, diseases and weeds in our paid workshops and courses. We always start here because pests and diseases are just a symptom of a mindset problem.
We have to work on our thoughts about gardening first before anything else. Otherwise you might quickly end up playing “whack-a-mole” like Stacey did.
So save yourself a TON of time, energy, money, and heartache! Grab your own copy of our free pests & diseases workbook today (normally part of my paid courses):
>>> Successful Pest Management for the Organic Grower
Then once you download and go through your workbook, hit reply and let us know what you think!
We’re always interested to hear what you found most helpful from our materials!
To your peace of mind,
The Grow Your Own Vegetables Team

Dear Jimi,
We're delighted to extend an invitation to you for our upcoming free online workshop on profitable strawberry cultivation. This is not your everyday workshop - it's the essence of a decade's worth of practical farming experience and knowledge, made accessible to you in a convenient online format.
Although we have been growing strawberries for over a decade, they have become a pivotal crop in just the few short years we’ve been farming at our Farm on Central, accounting for a significant 20% of our farm's income within just four weeks each year.
Following numerous emails, DMs, and phone calls seeking our insights, we've finally distilled our expertise into an introductory three-day workshop. This is a golden opportunity for you to learn from our experiences, successes, and even missteps, empowering you to adopt a time-tested, profitable system for your own farm or homestead.
The workshop, scheduled from July 17th to 19th, is comprised of a daily video release, covering crucial aspects of successful strawberry farming:
We're thrilled to be able to finally offer this exciting workshop! The knowledge you'll gain could significantly enhance your farming approach and outcomes. This is an opportunity you don't want to miss!

- The differences between the three main strawberry growing systems; we’ll help you determine the one that best fits your farm, garden, or homestead
- An analysis of the potential profit margins in strawberry farming and how to make the numbers work for you
- How we consistently charge double our local competition and almost always sell out
- Gaining insights into running a successful and safe u-pick operation (over 3000 happy visitors were welcomed to our farm this year)
- The four-part system we've developed and refined over the years to consistently achieve success with this crop
We're thrilled to be able to finally offer this exciting workshop! The knowledge you'll gain could significantly enhance your farming approach and outcomes. This is an opportunity you don't want to miss!

Are you allowed hand watering in your district?
People make drip irrigation from empty water bottles of all sizes, even little ones. There are several YouTube videos about it.
Here is just one:
Yes they let you water gardens not lawns to a point but in the real bad they ban that too but I still do

Today I went to a workshop on culinary herbs put on by the county Master Gardeners. There was also a workshop on preserving herbs presented by the local Master Preservers. Interesting stuff.
I'm working on getting a raised bed and container garden going that will be irrigated by a drip system now that I have time to do it. I'm doing raised beds and containers because I have heavy clay soil and invasive Bermuda grass.

I wish they had a workshop like that here, I use a ton of herbs in my fight.
Now I know where to go when I have a question on them
Wishing you the best of luck my friend but I am sure you will do great
Hey Jimi... just a quick update on my New Zealand "spinach". It's ding fine now that I limit full sun to 3-4 hours a day. Here's a pic:

So much of water policy is underhanded politics. I hate it that we can't trust any governments anymore, not the local, the state, and certainly not the national.
I was listening to a podcast about how one rural area's local government tried to lock down their wells and charge them for their own water from their own wells they'd dug themselves. It turned out they wanted to sell that pure clean water to a bottler, and were trying to keep the pesky locals out of it. The people did get together and defeat the infringement on their water rights.
Hey it's lookin great buddy you did a great job of savin it
Almost ready for my first harvest of the NZ spinach. Going to par-boil (just a bit) and put it in an omelette. It may not do well with too much full sun but is OK with heat (unlike real spinach) Trim some off and it regrows quickly and for a long time. In Australia, it grows wild (especially along the coast) Some even consider it a nuisance weed (kind of like Purslane here... many people don't know how healthy it is to eat)
Anyway, if anyone want's to try it you will have to order seeds (they are not easy to find at local stores) There is a "trick" to get them to germinate (soak in water then lightly "scar" the top with an emery board)

I think the only way the bees will survive is through home gardeners leaving them alone, and especially making space for bee gardens with plants those bees especially like.
Then you get to have fun saying to people, "have I told you I have worms?"
