About Me

My photo
I have lived all my life in Ontario, Canada and moved from Toronto to a small town in rural Ontario almost 23 years ago.  I love it here! Everything moves at a slower pace and there is room to grow lots of various plants.  I have 5 children whom are all adults now and two granddaughters that I adore.  I love to learn, learn and learn some more about the various uses for plants, companion gardening, natural methods of pest control etc. etc. etc.

Anyone else experiencing a slow start to their veggie garden??







I am slightly disappointed so far this Summer with my vegetable garden. Though I realize we had very late frost in early June that was followed by hail and a slight snow fall, everything seems to be growing soooo slow. Perhaps it's my impatience. I wait all winter and Spring to see new life and so far my herbs are the only thing that is thriving. Anyone else gardening in Central Ontario experiencing this?? I sure hope things pick up quickly. I was sure to add lots of organic manure to our soil in early April and have already used Organic Fish Emusion fertilizer once but wish I was seeing a little more action in the veggie department.
Would love to hear from other Ontario gardeners on their experiences so far.
