Month: August 2022

Yesterday I was a bit sulky and pouty that my garden hasn’t been maturing and I am not in food “preservation season,” like I usually am this time of year. Last night I stepped out my back door to head to the garden to see if any tomatoes had started showing any signs of turning green to pink and there it was. It hit me.

I guess since my tomatoes are not turning, I can’t really say I am in “tomato season.” It’s about to be peach season in my kitchen, as I soon have 4 lugs coming. But for today, it just doesn’t seem right to sit her idle and not be laser focused on a “season” of life! So I guess, I am in the middle of fly season.

Now that we are full on into back to school mode, I thought it was time to talk about a subject that was near and dear to my heart because my dearest babies are involved. It is time to slow down and observe that this time of year means you are now sharing the road with school buses and that is a heavy responsibility that requires your full attention!

Fresh, sliced, pickled, spears, let’s take a look at cucumbers today on Fun, Fact Friday, right here on Ranch Raised.

Cucumber, tomatoes, peppers, corn, oh my. Let’s do a little garden check in, right here on Ranch Raised today.
