Exploring Thomas Jeferson's Garden
As we celebrate President's Day, it’s important to remember that our leaders are regular people with interests and hobbies just like us. In addition to being one of our first presidents, a Founding Father and authoring the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson was an avid gardener. His diplomatic duties often required that he travel to other countries where he learned about new herbs, spices and foods that came back to America with him, influencing American culture and cuisine to this day.

Spring Companion Planting
Companion planting is one of the best ways to practice sustainable gardening. Whether they benefit from each other by trading nutrients in the soil, providing structural support for one another, luring pests away from a more sensitive crop or blooming nearby to attract pollinators, certain crops strategically grown together can help create a symbiotic farm ecosystem that doesn’t require the use of harmful fertilizers and pesticides.
