Dear Garden-lovers,
Sunday's information sessions with Connie were AMAZING!
I learned so much and it was all so great!
Huge thanks to Connie for the fantastic array of ideas.
One idea was to add comfry, horsetail and nettle into compost mixtures. Or to make compost tea to apply to organicly grown gardens, to foliar feed.
So I looked up a few links that might be of interest (see below). And I'm curious what other gardeners think about growing our own beneficial compost plants in pots or collecting horsetail and nettle, which grow on the island. and adding them to our compost? Enjoy these links and add any more you find useful in the comments below:
