Authored by @minismallholding

And we've passed the middle of the year already again! Are you in midwinter or midsummer? What's your garden looking like at the moment? I've been looking on enviously at some amazing gardens with tropical plants from our chilly spot on this planet. We only want what we haven't got...😉

This week's @ecotrain question of the week asks us what our favourite ways to show gratitude are.

The Garden Journal challenge with @riverflows is in full swing. You might just have time to squeeze in a quick entry before it closes.

Some highlights of the week




@plantstoplanks takes us for a stroll through her productive garden where food is being produced and nature is keeping life in balance with both pests being controlled and beauty emerging.

Add we begin our midseason month of July, @riverflows shares her new seed storage solution, which she's finding easier to access with those dirty garden hands. She also shares a footer of her own creation for Hive Garden Journallers to use freely.

Over on the @generikat homestead they've been having some hot days which have brought the lavender to an early harvest. Experience a little of a day/week of life on a homestead and the joys of working with lavender.

One of the hardest things when trying to move away from problematic for ingredients is finding alternatives or replacements for the occasional treat. After all, what is life if you can't find the occasional enjoyment. Thankfully, @cesarj21's oatmeal cookies cut out two problematic ingredients for me, wheat and refined sugar.
