Submitted by mredwood on May 4, 2009 - 8:46pm slow food baking and gardeningI have been on this site for over a month. I have baked all our bread. I can't see buying what I can do cheaper and better except for what I can't afford. I have a raised bed veggie garden. I am going again this spring. In the summer there's not much better than fresh bread & tomatoes or salad or greens or beans and onion. Fresh veggies always accompanied by fresh bread. I would to find a site like this in the gardening area. Fresh loaf is exceptional and that is what I am looking for in the gardening area. I do flowers, but food and getting the most out of my soil is what I am after. Just like the bread and the flour. Thanking you all in advance. Mariah

Have you checked out the Dave's Garden site?
Mariah, Have you visited the Dave's Garden site? DG is a wonderful online community, especially for those interested in gardening. There are many wonderful forums with a lot of good information there.

Thanks all. Between Taunton and seedsavers I may never get off the computer. So much to read & learn.

Mariah,
I grow all our fruit and veg, bake all our processed foods and butcher local animals, curing our meats. We have chickens and a friend up the street has goats that I milk and make cheese from.
I would second Dave's Garden but the best is if you can google for a garden forum or blog in your particular growing region. Where are you located? Seed Savers is great but the seeds are not meant for my climate so I buy from other heirloom OP seed sources. That way I can garden year round with little to no losses since the plants have been tested in my climate.
Good luck to you!
Warmly,
Annette
