Grow Food Not Lawns Canada: July & August 2020

in #growfoodnotlawns4 years ago

What's good #HiveFam? I hope you've been well 😘

I have some updates from the summer #growfoodnotlawns garden here for you today. I haven't been on social media very much the last couple months, been enjoying 'real life' to the fullest, absorbing moments with my sweet family. Relaxing, reflecting, re-thinking, a lot.

I feel my energies shifting now, it's time to begin outward expressions again!

A sign I rocked on my front door for a few years.

Looks good, it’s amazing how the veggies we get in the store are so different and weirdly uniform but when you grow they they do their own thing and also taste quite different lol we’ve been eating a lie

Growing food and trading are you nuts? Do you actually want people to be self sufficient and sovereign and not beholden to a government? This is terrorist activity lol

we've been eating a lie.

HAHAHA! That cracked me up :)))))) But soo true!!

Well good to see you back :)

Thanks, good to see you too @old-guy-photos!

Looks like a totally different planet o,o
Welcome back lynds
Don't be a stranger~
We miss your pictures

I am back haha, the boys are going to be posting more as well, part of their homeschool :D Keep an eye out for @alivefoxdeadfox and @animationimagine <3 xo

Your motto is great! Sounds simple but means a lot... #growfoodnotlawns

Thanks, it is a worldwide movement I'm proud to be a part of!

I always wanted to grow my own fruit and veg

Something tells me you would be a natural at it, you can do whatever you set your mind to! Thank you for growing #HIVE!!

Food, glorious food!

I must go stalk your page for garden posts, I bet you've been busy as always!

Not a whole lot so far this year, but that’s going to change very soon 😉

Yayyyy! Missed you. What a great blog post Lynds. Loooove seeing you, yours abd your abundant beautiful garden goods!! 😘✌❤🎶

Thanks for visiting me Jill, glad you're here tooooo!! I go check your page for urban farming updates now!!

Great idea!! Haven't even done one this year. I'll get a post on my garden out this week 🥰🌻🎶

Wow I would love to have my own plants too! I love fresh crops🥰

I hope one day you can @jaw-sea!

Yes I may, maybe when I get back in the Philippine.

Lovely and abundant lawn :D

I've been following a lot of homesteaders and urban gardeners on Youtube and Instagram, @siloe brought me to Steemit a year ago.

I plan to do #GrowFoodNotLawns when I settle down in a year or so ;)

Edit: Here's his YT channel suburban homestead which is shares your intentions of growing foods instead of just flowery/grassy lawns.

Thank you very much for the resource, I'm subbed now!

It should be a norm, no one's better than anybody ;)

@lynds Sooooooo good to see this post!!! What awesome veggies and fruit! They grow so well because of the love you give them of course. Amazing food, amazing lady, beautiful fam!!! Staying away from social media is part of a healthy balanced life. We all know that it’s good to get away at times xxxxxx

Thanks for your encouragement always SallyBeth <3<3<3 Was the longest media break I've taken since 2006 when it all began. I'm feeling very refreshed!

The veggies and the fam look so healthy and strong. Glad you had a good summer!

Thanks Winston, I hope you had a good summer as well!

Hey stranger! Will tune in to the video later but good to see you around! Also that carrot is C H O N K Y! ;)

LOLZ when a carrot is so big it turns from orange to yellow!

I am coming over to catch up with you too 😍

I can't wait to start growing food next spring

Oooh nice! I'm excited for you!!

Nice crops. I only tried to grow a couple of onions but the experience was a complete failure. When I dug them out there were no onions, only roots. 😑

I wonder what I did wrong... the plants were looking so good and healthy. 🤔

Oh that is disappointing! I had that happen with potatoes before...no clue why!

I'm jittery with envy for your garden.

That's how I'll picture you rolling up when you finally come visit me! :)))))

Nice to hear something from you again @lynds … some of us have missed you😎 and your take on the state of our increasingly, crazy society.

Good to see you after a long time @angryman, I'm coming by to visit and to share my take hahaha :D You know, I'm a tad angry, man :D. . . But preparing the best I can, mentally, emotionally, for the worst that is yet to come.

that is great to grow vegetable, becouse in this way you can get fressh vegetable

It gives a feeling of self worth too.

Exactly dear. I was a big fan of you on steemit. How about your chicken firm???

I still keep chickens, they are doing well except I had a predator come and attack my 2 month old chicks last month, I am still trying to capture it.

oh really sad news.you should be more carefull against predator. i hope you do well all of your self jobs. becouse you are too hard working person as i think.
