Sunday, April 19th. These kimchi vegetables are two days into a short fermentation. This is a Korean Kkakdugi recipe from Maangchi. The garden shared new chives, nettles, and grow light daikon radishes. The fermented garlic ingredient is from 2024. The Korean chili powder is sharing all the red hues. #fermentation, #kimchi, #Kkakdugi, #Maangchi, #minnesota, #zone4b.

Saturday April 18th. Garden journal notes. The perennial nettle plant is wonderful. This harvest aspired to be steamed with sambal kelapa spiced carrots. This is an early green for southern Minnesota. Also the plant spreads aggressively by shallow runners and deep runners. Also the common name is stinging nettles. #nettles, #growyourown, #nodig, #compost, #minnesota, #Zone4b, #gardening

@Broadfork@mastodon.green, @LifeTimeCooking@mastodon.au The Garden Amendment book is a great reference book. It’s on the kitchen table today. #gardenamendments, #fermentation, #soilbiology, #nettles, #comfrey, #dandelion, #minnesota, #Zone4b

Sunday, April 12th. The bloodroot plant is a lovely sign of spring. The plants make happy colonies, spreading by rhizomes and seed dispersal. The pollinators appreciate the early blossoms. And later in the season the ants like to carry the seeds off as treasure. #nativeplants, #pollinators, #minnesota, #zone4b

March 18, 2026. Field notes. The wind and heavy snow of the weekend covers native plants. This round headed bush clover stem is sturdy, often lasting two winters. This stem will return to the upright position as the snow melts. These plants have lovely winter color and striking seed heads. The seeds are attractive, they are small legumes. #minnesota, #nativeplants, #pollinators, #megafauna, #Zone4b

@joewynne@mindly.social Thank you for adding diversity to the habitat for the pollinators. The stiff goldenrod is an attractive plant through the seasons. We also have stiff goldenrod seeds doing the cold stratification in the refrigerator. #nativeplants, #minnesota, #Zone4b
