Welcome to the epic tale of our backyard’s prized possession – a majestic peach tree that dances with the promise of sun-drenched, succulent peaches every spring. But, alas, we weren’t the only ones lured by this fruity haven. Enter the mischievous squirrels, ready to challenge us for the ultimate peachy feast!
Garden
Pea Shoot Microgreen
Pea shoots grown in reused mushroom container. I haven’t had luck growing pea shoots in just water, they tend to rot and the stems get tough. I had better result growing them in coconut coir, but noticed that the shoots were slender and looked like that they could benefit from some added nutrition. This time, I used our home made compost, which is decomposed woodchips from our last year’s tree trimmings. It worked great. The shoots are healthy, vibrant and tender.
Time for Tea
It’s November and Ju-Hua Chrysanthemums are in bloom. It’s time to harvest the flowers to make Chrysanthemum tea, the herbal infusion that is served at every Dim Sum place.
