Garlic plants. This is pretty cool. The first picture shows the growth of individual cloves of garlic that were planted last October. They have wintered-over. By the time May or June rolls around they will each have grown one big white ball of garlic that will break into individual cloves as the plant matures. In the second photo, are bunches of stems of garlic. These garlic cloves were planted a year ago March and were hidden in my indigo patch and never harvested when they reached maturity. Since then, the cloves in each head have started to make their own garlic plants. I need to gently pull them out and replant them as individual garlic plants. * Check link in profile for spring gardening guide. #garlic #backyardgarden #urbanfarming #homegardener #growingvegetables
I love that my seedlings decided to emerge from the soil during the night. I don’t know the how of it all, but I’m thankful the pea, radish, spinach, and lettuce seeds all got the message to sprout (a full three weeks after I planted them). I was thinking the four nights of temperatures in the teens had done them in, but alas, it only slowed them down. Let the growing season, where every day holds a surprise, commence!

OMG! Today is my lucky day. Ever since I was a young girl watching the kitchen staff at school make our lunches, I’ve wanted to use a commercial Hobart mixer and now here I am making apple cinnamon muffins for 80! #pinchme
The chickens love weed-eating. They are the ultimate composters. They especially like the gnarly radish and turnip greens from last fall’s crop. Check link in profile for spring gardening guide. #feedingfrenzy #chickensofinstagram #backyardgarden #urbanfarming #backyardchickens
Chitted (sprouted) Yukon Nugget seed potatoes. These fall into the category of “Early Potatoes.” This variety is considered a higher yielding replacement for Yukon Golds. The day before you plan to plant, cut into pieces or “seeds” and allow raw sides to callous over. I’ll plant them tomorrow or Sunday depending on when the rain stops.

Have been experimenting with gluten-free bread-making this week. I used a recipe from @breadin5 . Here are some of the GF ingredients I used (all new to me): tapioca flour, brown rice flour, potato flour, sorghum flour (had to order this one online), and xanthan gum. The flours have the texture of cornstarch. I ate the bread hot out of the oven with fried eggs. It was very good. No toasting necessary. I am amazed that you can grind seeds to make either flour or oil. Looking forward to studying the milling process a little more. #glutenfree #breadmaking #glutenfreebread
