I started cleaning the yard a few weeks ago on a beautiful sunny day. I've been doing some of the mulching too. It is SOOOOOOOOOO much work! It is good that I love it so much!

Can anyone give tips on how to keep bugs off apples?

Is that really true? I've never heard of that. Has anyone else done that?

This is a great thread... I'm really thinking about starting a garden this year. I do a small herb garden every summer, but I'd love to grow more veggies. One thing I have been doing is learning more about organic gardening, and not using pesticides of any kind. I guess working for an organic yogurt company is making more 'granola' after all . I've got a little time before I can start my garden..we've always been told not to plant until after the second full moon in May.... so I'll be doing a little more research and looking here for lots of tips. Love the marigold idea.

I think I'll be using the marigolds along with landmines. The deer ate ALL my crocuses last night. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Thanks for the article. I've never had a Jersey tomato and didn't know that Jersey was famous for them. Around here everyone goes crazy for Arkansas tomatoes. When they come out, I make a special stop at the store for them. We'll each eat one at night in either a salad, as the salad, or stuffed with tuna salad. I'm ready for tomato season.

My grandfather used tomatoes and rhubarb to keep out the deer. He had a HUGE garden! We have some small coyotes here in the country where we live now that keep the deer in check, so we don't worry about it a whole lot. Ants are our big problem. I spray cucumber juice wherever I want to keep them out and keep them in line.

Tomatoes keep deer out? I thought the deer liked tomatoes? Does Rhubarb really work?

OK, so far I bought 5 pots of beautiful herbs. I now have 5 pots of dead herbs.

I shall keep trying, though!

I've been twice but no one wanted to stop and 'smell the roses'. Hopefully you'll have more time to explore. Have a great trip!
