It looks like we have a theme here. When we started to plan our trip to Arizona we thought that the entire state would be much warmer than New England, however as we learned in Sedona, it’s snowy in northern Arizona in the winter. The altitude at the south rim of the Grand Canyon isContinue reading “Our Snowy Grand Canyon Day”
Wordless Wednesday-Snowy Grand Canyon
Words and people coming soon, I promise! Michele
The Seed Order Is Underway!
I’m working on the next post about our trip, but I thought I shouldn’t stray too far away from the garden. The Grand Canyon was pretty snow covered, so, not much garden activity to report. When I move on to Winslow that will change in a big way! Still wintery, but definitely some gardens toContinue reading “The Seed Order Is Underway!”
First Stop-Snowy Sedona!
We “just got back” from our family trip to Arizona and as I tried to figure out what to share here on The Salem Garden I decided to talk about it one stop at a time. We were a family of seven out on the open road, just like the old days! It was funContinue reading “First Stop-Snowy Sedona!”

A Postcard from Arizona
I’m on vacation this week! Here’s a few phone pictures so sorry if the quality isn’t 100%. I’m blogging from my phone while I do a load of laundry. Wishing you all a wonderful week! Michele in Arizona
Our 2015 Garden Year
The year is almost over and I thought that it would be fun to do a bit of reflection on our garden year. I considered limiting this post to simple photos without words, but I started to fuss about whether to include just the immediate garden or the garden, yard and basement or garden relatedContinue reading “Our 2015 Garden Year”
Wishing You a Happy Holiday…
… with the people, plants and decorations that you love! Here’s a few of my favorites… Love, Michele
No Trash At All?
The videos seem to be taking over, but here’s another one that’s too good to miss. I just shared it on my facebook page, then decided that it had to reach a wider audience. This one is about a town in Japan with the goal of producing no trash at all. The residents sort theirContinue reading “No Trash At All?”
Homesteading in LA: A Food Tank Video
This video about Jules Derves and his family homestead is truly inspiring… imagine growing most of your own food on 1/5 of an acre in Los Angeles! They’re blessed with a year round growing season and appear to be great food preservers, along with sharing and selling their produce locally. We’re working on extending ourContinue reading “Homesteading in LA: A Food Tank Video”
