Yes to Victory Gardens for 2026! Even herbs or lettuce in a 16 inch pot helps, due to drought, heat, so many reasons. Where’d you get those tough looking plant cells? These seeds grew bazillions of crisp cukes-need a HUGE pot and strong support! www.burpee.com/cucumberr-mi... #VictoryGarden
Rows of onion sets, before burying them. They are in a high raised bed for accessible gardening.
Potted chives, turned out of the pit. They are root bound. I divided them. Most lost all but about 4" of roots. Then I planted in rows in the garden.
Onion raised bed, covered in tree leaves that saved last fall. the leaves will prevent most weeds, keep the soil more moist, and moderate soil temperature. It may be a hot, dry summer, so the leaves might be especially needed this year.
I planted the rest of the yellow & white onion sets. I divided a potted chive clump, replanted in rows
I mulched w/ tree leaves.
In these chaotic times, a way to boost food security is to grow a #VictoryGarden. Prices may rise, also scarcity. #Gardening is good for the soul. 🌱 # KitchenGarden
Tomato seed packets and seedling 8-pack
Tomato seed packets and seedling 8-pack
I planted an 8-pack of slicing tomato seeds (7 types) & 8 pack of sauce tomato seeds (2 types). As a gardener w/ limitations 👨🏼🌾, I mostly planted determinate varieties, disease resistant hybrids. Anyone who can, should grow a victory garden this year. #Gardening 🌱 #KitchenGarden #VictoryGarden

2 large grow bags with tomato cages and small transplants barely above the soil
Small grow bags with pepper transplants in front of a fence
Transplants in! 🍅🌶️🌱
Now we start the tomato and pepper count down! 😍
(I have many more tomatoes not included in the photos)
Trying some different varieties this year to see how they do.

I just made 4 jars of spaghetti sauce with 1 by adding in tomato paste, water, peppers, onions, garlic, and tomatoes.
Now my stuff won't go bad, I don't have to prep veggies to go in the pasta, and I have a months worth of sauce.
Hell yeah!

Beginners, I'll put you on a little #gardening game here.
These 3 products are staples in my fertilization process. They are vegan and organic.
In an incredibly simplistic break down.. your garden needs N-P-K.
Nitrogen.
Phosphorous.
Potassium.

Planting a chocolate cherry sunflower forest around my patio today. Theyre beautiful and at 7 or 8 ft tall they make great shade. They attract birds and bees. I try to keep my outdoor spaces natural. I even have a water feature. The HOA hates me but fuck em I love my birds & bees 🐝

A weedy garden plot with a small fire in the middle for burning off weeds
A very rough garden plot with a few beds marked out and a few things planted
a spring garden with peas, garlic, herbs, and native mugwort visible. Most of the beds are still full of weeds
a well tended early spring garden with newly planted beds, some herbs, overwintered carrots, onions, a raspberry plant, and basket weaving plants visible, as well as some trellises for peas to come
Progression: November 2024 - December 2024 - May 2025 - March 2026. All this was done by me alone, without any help. Keep digging, it's worth it. #selfsufficiency #gardensky #homesteading #foodsecurity #survival #patience #tenacity #victorygarden #gardening #veggies #herbs #fiberplants #fruits
3 days after planting, some cucumber sprouts are seen emerging from the soil of a seed tray.
4 days after planting, many cucumber sprouts are emerging and standing tall.
5 days after planting, all cucumbers have emerged and put on height, all melons and squashes have emerged, as well as basil and a few tomatoes.
6 days after planting seeds. Cucumbers are going gangbusters, all melons and squashed have emerged and continue to grow, tomatoes have begun to emerge, as well as basil and cilantro. The pumpkins are juuust starting to push the soil up.
Wow. This seed tray and dome paired with the heating mat. Just wow! First picture, 3 days after planting, then 4 days, 5 days, and the 6th day post-planting (which is today!). #seeds #seedstarts #garden #gardening #victorygarden
One fallen log, a pile of yard waste, and zero dollars are all it takes to build a self-watering food engine that outperforms the $2 billion raised bed industry.

A large black and white pitbull lays on a green lawn in front of a small folding table. There is a large bag of soil leaning against the table and a seed planting tray on the table top.
A small folding table has a large bag of soil leaning against the leg as well as seed packets and a seed planting tray sitting on the table top.
A seed tray is shown, topped off with soil and with multiple seed tags sticking out at the tops of rows.
A seed tray is shown sitting on a counter indoors. The tray is sitting on a heating mat and there is a plastic dome over the top to help trap moisture and raise humidity levels. There are also grow lights attached to the top of the dome.
Got our seeds started for the veggie garden this year! I've never started them indoors with a heat mat before, but it stays pretty cold here rather late into Spring, so I'm giving this a try. 🌱💖 #seeds #garden #veggies #victorygarden
Spring is coming! Got our first egg of the year yesterday & I can hear the ladies working on more. Also snuck a few more madder & basket roots out of the garden. Real homesteaders plan 1-4 seasons ahead. #cabincore #homesteading #cottagecore #spring #SelfSufficiency #survival #VictoryGarden

A rectangular container holding multiple seed packets, with jars of home-saved seeds, reusable pockets of saved corn, and loose packets of flower and herb seeds on a glass table.
Seed inventory and garden planning for 2026 are afoot! Some are home-saved seed, some are purchased. So much potential in a jar/packet!🌱

how was your thanksgiving?
#VictoryGarden
Ashley grew her own pumpkins. We raised her able to kill a cactus
are you prepared to play #ThanksgivingTopper and then lose, lose, lose again, lose in an entirely different kind of category of losing, until you share your loss with everyone else on the planet except me?
