Presto!

We recently had another harvest! This time it was the aquaponic basil. Very proud, we turned it all into the most delicious pesto. Add some chicken, pasta, and wine, and we have a nice date night in.

Beehive

We now have the power of the hive.

Along with producing honey, bees are excellent polinators. On a beautiful day like today, you can observe hundreds of bees, busily flying in and out.

Compost Harvest!

We harvested compost earlier this year, and distributed it to all of the neighborhood compost program members. It was a great experience to see this fine, loamy compost come out of the Good to Grow heap!
