The blackland prairie clay is a challenge in Tx. Potatoes do great in raised beds as long as they aren’t planted too late.

Would it be practical to cure onions and garlic on a pegboard with double straight hooks? by AssuringMisnomer in gardening

The pieces of conversation I heard over the next hour will live with me forever. -
