Better Tomatoes
by Jack R.
My tomato harvest has jumped just over one third since I began to use the cottonseed meal organic fertilizer and adding composted cotton burr just like you say. But the best thing has got to be the taste! My neighbor still uses chemicals but can't figure out why mine taste better than his, what do you think? And there is no way I am going to eat another tomato that has been spread with a toxic chemical!

Bokashi Buckets
This Fall I have been working on some new raised beds for use this coming Spring. They have provided a convenient spot to put all those leaves falling off the maple tree.Earlier this year I began using Bokashi Buckets to recycle all our kitchen waste. I always thought it was a shame that I couldn't do something constructive with all the orange peels we generate in our household. Bokashi Buckets have provided a perfect solution and a great way to build soil in the raised beds all throughout the winter. Bokashi Buckets are a great alternative to composting, especially in the winter months.
