Choosing seeds and plants can be daunting. The most important consideration when choosing seeds is to plant what your family will eat! If they won't eat broccoli or lima beans, why plant them?

I got out with the dogs last week for our first long walk of the year. A couple of us are showing our age. I limp a bit more than I used to, and although I didn’t think it possible, Ace has gotten even slower. Never a fast dog, Ace has paced himself his entire life. It’s served him well.

A middle dog, he always slipped under the radar, hunting behind older, better-trained...

A church service was an excuse to bring people together and often the services would be followed by a community picnic. If there was no money to build a church, services were held in homes or schools. The Midale Church was built in 1920. It was known as the Margaret Boles Memorial...
