In The Raw: How Green Does Your Garden Grow?

  • Lauren519 · 5 months ago
    I agree, all the rain has really made my garden BOOM! :) We have cucumbers and tomatoes that are almost ready! Can't wait!

    Seriously? I have itty bitty cucs. The tomatoes went gang-busters this week though. Now, to wait until they ripen. My peppers are growing like weeds now, but again, have to wait for them to ripen. C'mon sunshine!

    All that's growing in the sand pit I call my yard is weeds! I have to go out and mow them, and probably have a heat stroke doing it, so I can pretend I have a lawn! lol! Your pictures are beautiful.

    Love & Sunshine!

    Hey, better check those weeds before you mow – never know what you might forage right in your own sand pit of a yard. I hear dandelions are a wonderful tonic for the liver. :D

    Aren't you just in heaven with the summer lettuces? I'm so happy.
  • EarthMother - In The Raw · 5 months ago
    I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am to walk out my back door and pick lunch, or have to decide "Hmmm, what shall I juice today?" The BEST feeling, growing your own food.

    You have peaches. I have greens. Together, we could make a killer smoothie! :D
  • Johanna B · 5 months ago
    Such luscious fresh greens. I can only imagine.
  • EarthMother - In The Raw · 5 months ago
    You have no greens in Kansas? I'll share mine with you.

    I LOVE to juice! I wish my garden was larger so that I could juice from my own garden. That is definitely on my agenda as I look for a new place to live & create my retreat center. I can't wait to take in teens & teach them about how much food affects their moods, etc.
    I discovered you the other day & am completely mesmerized!!!
  • EarthMother - In The Raw · 5 months ago
    Ah, I sense a kindred spirit in you, Cyndee. Love to juice. Created and managed a retreat center. Worked with teens. Ran a large commercial gourmet vegetarian kitchen. Spot any similarities?

    Delighted to have been discovered by you! Hope you'll visit us In The Raw again.

    Many Blessings to you.

    Wow, you garden is much further along than mine. But we had a very cool spring for NM and I also got mine in late. These photos look incredible. I just love photos of garden produce or fruit. Lately for my morning drink I combine all kind of baby mixed greens, ginger and a touch of fresh coconut milk. So so good. It has been fun to run across you at twitter. Are you on FaceBook? Under EarthMother?? I'll have to check. Sending you hugs and love, Robin. :)))
  • EarthMother - In The Raw · 5 months ago
    I'll often throw ginger into my morning green juice too! Love the extra lil' zip!

    No FaceBook for me. Just started tweeting a month or so ago.

    Thought you might like to know that I was approached to do a radio program and teach a living foods class this summer — both predicted by YOU, Robin the Oracle, months and months ago. :D

    Oodles and oodles of love!

    Mmmm...looks good! I bet is SMELLS divine! We just moved and are trying to get settled in but once our kitchen is organized and I know where my juicer is I'm going to start juicing again. And juice things from our garden. :)
  • EarthMother - In The Raw · 5 months ago
    Whoa, what an undertaking after having just given birth! What happens with Sam's garden now that you've moved to a new home?

    Blessings to Mom, Dad and lil' Sprout.

    I should clarify: I'm just going to be adding a fresh juice to my diet - hopefully daily. No juice fast for this girl! :) Love having a fresh juice; makes me feel so good. I've gotten out of the habit and need to get back into it. Oh with the garden, we live closer to it now! Yay! And his garden is looking fantastic. I keep encouraging him to blog about it but hasn't had the time yet. Hopefully an update on that soon.

    Things were 'exploding' into some quite stunning plants - sadly though, most of my parents lovely Veg Patch was subsequently wiped out by torrential rain up here in Glasgow over the last few days. Im really going to miss that Lettuce. Oh well, just have to start again! :/

    The pictures are awsome, I dont know about the stuff in the glass though, it looks a little dodgy!
  • EarthMother - In The Raw · 5 months ago
    LOL! Might look "dodgy," but tastes delicious. Try this —> juice a bunch of your favorite greens, 2 cucumbers, 2 sweet apples and a knob of fresh ginger root.
