Today I spent some time looking up gardenining on the internet. Love Google news. I found great how-to articles. Also, found out that the White House planted an organic garden on the South Lawn. There was the picture of Michelle Obama planting with her hoe.

Also, the USDA is growing a garden on the Mall. I guess everyone is planting this year, not just me. I'm glad I'm planting seeds this year.
Mother Earth News keeps on being a supply of wealth. I think I might make my own worm farm for composting. Right now I through all my kitchen scraps in a garbag can near the porch stairs. Over the winter it turns into a black liquid that smells like death, but I'll pour it over the garden. I think worms might be easier. I saw a couple of places. It seems red wigglers are the best, but can you imagine getting 2 pounds (1000) worms in the mail?
