With spring really settling into most of the country, it is full-on gardening time! Get ready to sow and grow to your  heart’s content as we head into summer and and abundance of produce. Check out the monthly calendar for moon-calendar based growing tips, as well as a list of some vegetables, herbs, fruit and flowers to get under way for your garden.

This month we focus on Calendula as they are in full bloom – and such a quintessential part of a herb and vegetable garden. Read the October newsletter to find out about the amazing edible, cosmetic, medicinal and household uses for this bright little flower, as well as a recipe for making your own sugar scrub with calendula.
