Barmer district of Rajasthan will get 70 solar tube wells (run by converting energy from solar panels) installed that will be used to harvest solar energy for critical utilities. The State government of Rajasthan is hopeful that the project under Mukhyamantri Solar Adharit Nalkoop Yojana (MSANY) will be completed by December. The project, when fully functional, is expected to power an entire district. The Rajasthan Electronics and Instrumentation Ltd is currently handling the project. It will spend Rs 11.91 crore for the entire project.
Tackling water shortage through innovation
For the district reeling under acute water shortage, this project is indeed hugely welcomed as it is supposed to get round-the-clock water supply from December. Besides, the region will have enough water supply for agriculture through irrigation and thereby opening up more avenues for farmers to expand their crops. The government is also partnering with Mukhyamantri Jal Swavlamban Abhiyan (MJSA) to come up with water conservation techniques and make the state self-sufficient in the usage and consumption of water.
The Public Health Engineering Department is monitoring the project. The government is planning to set up 1,000 solar tube wells and 400 defluoridation plants in the entire state.
The Logical Indian welcomes the initiative taken by the Government Of Rajasthan. Such initiatives should be replicated across states where there are acute water shortages and abundant solar potential.


Are you ready to go a little wild in your garden? Miriam Goldberger says there are 60 ways to do it. (Don’t get your rubber hose in a knot quite yet.) We’re talking sixty of her favourite native wildflowers and grasses. She knows what she’s talking about. Miriam is founder and co-owner of Wildflower Farm, a wildflower seed production company in Ontario. She’s also an expert on organic and sustainable gardening. (She was a celebrity speaker at Canada Blooms 2014.) In Taming Wildflowers, her new book, she rolls out all the info you need to understand the relationship between the buds and bees and choosing the right plants for your garden. There’s even a guide to her favourite non-natives that will have your head-spinning–so many drop-dead gorgeous choices, so little time. Her chapter on growing plants from seeds is entitled “Making Babies”. Yep, this wildness is hot stuff but the book is PG-rated throughout, as in Perfectly Great. Here’s a peek at her pages.

A peaberry is an abnormality of a coffee cherry in which only one seed (“coffee bean”) develops, instead of the typical two. So instead of two flat-sided seeds (or beans), one round seed grows. The peaberries, which are on average five percent of coffee cherries, are seperated to be sold as a lot.

These past few weeks, we have been affected by rain showers which scour our environment. However, our plants have also felt the effects of these torrential downpours. Besides the Willow, Popular, Alder, and certain Maple trees, most greenery prefer to live in drained soil and cannot tolerate flooded soils for more than 3 days. Despite this, plants are not helpless to the drenching waters. If excessive waters remain, rotting can occur in the stems and/or trunks of the greenery. The water could also cause pale or yellow leaves and overall weakness of the plants. In addition, these spots become easy habitats for breeding grounds of insects, mold, and fungal and bacterial diseases. These are a few ways you can help improve the draining potential of your soil to prevent flooding problems from spreading further in your landscape.
1. Remove Excess Mulch
2. Cultivate Around The Plants
3. Poke Holes to Aerate the Soil
4. Create Drainage Channels or Tiles Away from the Plants
5. Pump Out Puddling Waters
After the excess water has subsided, fertilize weakened trees and shrubs to strengthen them and thus provide for a healthier landscape!

GrowGeneration Corp . (NASDAQ: GRWG) is buying San Diego Hydroponics & Organics, a four-store chain of organic, hydroponic and aquaponics garden centers in San Diego, California. The company said that San Diego Hydroponics & Organics is San Diego County’s premier hydroponic equipment supplier, with annual revenues approaching $10 million. GrowGen did not say what it paid for the company.
This latest acquisition brings the total number of GrowGen hydroponic garden centers to 50 stores. In California, the country’s largest legal cannabis market, GrowGen now has 17 stores, with eight of those stores located in Southern California.
“Southern California is a priority market for GrowGeneration, and we are excited to add San Diego Hydroponics & Organics to our ever-expanding footprint there,” said Darren Lampert, GrowGen’s CEO. “As the leading hydroponics supplier, San Diego Hydroponics & Organics strategically positions GrowGen to conveniently provide our services to commercial growers in the Southern California market.”
San Diego Hydroponics & Organics was founded in 2001 by Todd Kent. The company first opened its doors with an 800-square-foot store in Pacific Beach, California, and has since expanded to four locations with more than 20,000-square-feet of retail space and 20 employees, who will join GrowGeneration’s team of over 500 grow professionals as part of the transaction.
“Since 2001, we’ve remained committed to our goal of supplying Southern California with top-quality products, cutting-edge horticultural technology, and unbeatable customer service. Our partnership with GrowGen, the nation’s clear leader in hydroponics, allows us to marry decades of combined cultivation expertise and knowledge to better serve the Southern California market,” said San Diego Hydroponics & Organics’ founder Todd Kent .
The San Diego Hydroponics & Organics acquisition is GrowGen’s fourth this year and follows yet another quarter of record earnings. In January, GrowGen pre-announced fourth-quarter revenues of $61.5 million, bringing full-year 2020 revenue to $192 million, up 140% from 2019. Same-store sales increased 63% for full-year 2020, compared to the previous year. The Company also raised its 2021 revenue guidance to $335 million – $350 million and raised its 2021 adjusted EBITDA guidance to $38 million – $40 million. GrowGen plans to have 55 garden center locations by the end of 2021.
The four analysts covering GrowGen have an average price target of $56.43 according to Yahoo Finance. The stock was lately trading at $49.50, down from its 52-week high of $67.

Based on 10 years of Texas Tech University research, integrated cotton-forage-beef cattle systems are just as profitable as cotton monoculture systems. But there’s more. Integrated crop-livestock systems use less irrigation water, are more energy efficient, preserve soils by reducing wind erosion, and have a lower economic risk related to specific-loss events, such as a drought.
This bulletin covers 10 years of Texas High Plains economics analyses, from 1999-2008.

'BEEP scheme won't be bureaucratic'- Minister Creed
Minister for Agriculture Michael Creed said he doesn’t envisage that there will be bureaucratic issues in relation to farm inspections and procurement of scales which will be part of the new BEEP scheme (Beef Environmental Efficiency Pilot).
Minister Creed launched the BEEP scheme this week which has set aside €20 million to target the weaning efficiency of suckler cows and calves - measuring the live weight of the calf at weaning as a percentage of the cow's live weight.
Farmers who take part in the scheme will be inspected to ensure data submitted as part of the scheme is accurate.
Minister Creed said that he doesn’t imagine the scheme will be bureaucratic in terms of procuring scales or farm inspections and estimates that the uptake will resemble the amount of farmers in the Beef Data and Genomics Scheme.
“There will be correlation with the BDGP but it is not confined to farmers in the BDGP. It’s open to all suckler farmers,” he said.
“We have designed the scheme to make it as user friendly as possible. We will have a wide network of availability of the scales. The purpose and design of scheme is on making it as user friendly and making sure the overwhelming majority of funds is allocated to farmers. I don’t anticipate any bureaucratic issues.”
He said that schemes like BEEP and BDGP are ground-breaking when it comes to the climate change agenda and said that those knocking the industry should remember that.
“It’s a pity that people who knock the industry all the time and whose solution would be to the climate agenda would be to slaughter the herd are not aware of the potential that is there in this scheme to drive the climate change agenda.”
Sean Coughlan of the ICBF stated that the BEEP in conjunction with the Beef Data and Genomics Scheme has the potential to reduce Greenhouse Gas emissions per cow by 10pc.
“There aren’t many tools available to reduce Greenhouse Gases that don’t cost money. Here we are able to continue to increase profitability at farm level and reduce overall Greenhouse Gases,” he said.
“A 10pc reduction in Greenhouse Gases per cow is forecast in 2016-2030-that’s an absolute figure. This is the holy grail. We are increasing profitability and reducing the impact of Greenhouse Gases.”
Mr Coughlan pointed out that the new BEEP is an excellent opportunity to focus on weanling efficiency which is a key driver of farm profitability and sustainability.
Scales to record weight data as part of the BEEP can be owned, rented or borrowed and must be pre-registered and approved. It is understood that scales are set to be made available at local co-ops for farmers in the scheme to use.
Applications for the scheme will open on February 4 and will close on February 22.
There is provision for payment of up to €40 per cow.
Submission of weights will take place from March 8 to November 1 2019 and payments will be issued in December.
All animals submitted for weighing must have been born between July 1 2018 and 30 June 2019.

Mission Peak Unitarian Universalist Congregation marked its 20th anniversary of serving the Tri-Cities area with a work party Saturday at the Stone Garden, on the corner of Mission Boulevard and Mowry Avenue. The event was followed by a barbecue and concert in the garden.
Mission Peak’s own band “Peak Rocks” provided the live music.
The Stone Garden project is a partnership between Mission Peak Unitarian Universalist and Local Ecology and Agriculture Fremont. As part of the Unitarian Universalist Association Leap of Faith program, Mission Peak is implementing an all-congregation project to fulfill a mission to “live compassionately for a sustainable world.” Mission Peak partnered with LEAF, whose mission is building community through learning and actions that promote sustainability and local food, to create a new community garden and nursery project. LEAF identified the private half-acre site in the Niles District. This site is owned by Dr. Chris Stone of Mission Valley Veterinary Clinic who has offered it to LEAF on a 10-year lease at $1 per year.
The project’s goal is to create a self-sustaining community garden that will provide fresh produce to volunteers who work in the garden and to low-income households in the Tri-Cities area. Other goals include creating educational opportunities for children in the Tri-Cities area and a gathering place for garden volunteers.

Don't panic - plan ahead.
We are living in some unprecedented times regarding supply and demand. As many of you know, there has been a considerable amount of press about glyphosate and other CPP product shortages for the 2022 growing season. There are several different factors for the herbicide shortage including a decline in the number of laborers to unload tanker ships at gulf ports, lack of truck transportation from the ports to get the ingredients to U.S. formulation plants and formulated products to the retailers, reduced supplies of some of the inert ingredients of the formulation, shortages of materials to make containers and packaging, and Hurricane Ida that damaged a glyphosate production plant in Luling, LA.
The last several months have not gone without time and effort by the Premier Cooperative staff actively working on getting ahead of these supply challenges. Working closely and often with vendors and manufacturing companies, I feel we are in a good position to meet your needs for the 2022 growing season. That doesn’t mean we won’t have challenges. It’s extremely important for you to take the time now to work with your Premier Agronomist to reduce rates and possibly improve your cost per acre with an alternative herbicide program. There are options and we look forward to providing you with best-of-class recommendations. Give your Premier Agronomist a call to get the planning and profits for 2022 in motion.


Revision history [back]
I won't claim to be an expert, so I might be out of line here and should let others handle this. Could the decay process be accelerated by regular tilling? I' know Vavuniya, and at this time of year the area is dry and hot. The rains shouldn't resume until late September or so. If the area was tilled to 8-12 inches every week or so, would that enhance the decay process?
This is an agricultural area, so there should be plenty of equipment available to do the work. Are there any biological supplements (could you inoculate with a digestive bacteria?) or fertilizers that might also accelerate digestion? At this time of year, they might actually make some of Tim's temperatures for a week or a month, too. It's predominantly flat, hot, dry and exposed, or at least it was when I worked there.


Nature doesn’t wait.
Berries don’t magically save themselves for when it’s most convenient for you to pick them.
Two weeks ago, after sleepy weather and rain, the temperatures rose. It was Friday, and we had plans to go to a friend’s farm to pick strawberries at the beginning of the following week. However, that morning, Julia came downstairs and told me that if we didn’t get out to the farm that day, the berries would succumb to the heat; the opportunity would be lost. We put aside our plans for the day, jumped in the car, and drove out of Northfield, past endless fields, eventually reaching the farm. It was scorching hot–my t-shirt was soaked, my hands and knees itched with bramble scratches, my neck was sticky. But I ate a strawberry breakfast as I picked, amazed at the abundance of little ripe red fruits. My thoughts wandered to the 5$ I had shelled out for a carton of Dole berries just two days earlier. I wished I could pick them all; seeing the rows of berries we would not be able to get to seemed such a waste.
So we came back the next day. It had rained overnight, and already you could taste the difference in the berries–the burst of red seemed more subdued, yet they were still delicious and sweet in a way that store-bought berries will never be able to achieve, no matter how large they are. I will never underestimate the beauty of labor, and the feeling of a truly earned reward after a hard day’s work.
Jars of jam, berry pies, tarts, smoothies, or just by themselves–a movable berry feast.


Question From: Livonia, Michigan, United States
Q: Like another questioner the robins are staying away from my serviceberries. This is the second year in a row. Before that it was a yearly feeding frenzy as they got close to being ripe. Now quite a few are ripe and ready to fall to the ground.
A: David., I am not an ornithologist, so I can't your question. My hunch is there is some other food source they like better, and a long cold spring delayed the ripening of fruit. Timing is everything in nature. Best And Happy Yardening, Nancy


THIS WEEK’S SUBSCRIBER MENU:
• Sugar Snap Peas (some folks got Shelling Peas)
• “Tokyo Market” Turnips
• Arugula or Red Lettuces
• Stir-Fry Greens
• Fresh Garlic
Click on the links above for information and recipes about these crops.
Every morning, and sometimes throughout the day, I pinch myself. I just can’t believe it’s really summer! But it must be, because we have so many peas, the squashes (including zucchini) are in full bloom, the beans are blooming, the herbs are growing, and there are lots of vegetables showing now in colors other than green!
If you haven’t yet, I urge you to come and help yourself to the u-pick peas. There are Shelling Peas, and Sugar Snap Peas, and you can take as much as you want to pick—for free. Yes, they are FREE, so get down here and pick some to eat, or to eat and freeze for later, when you need a taste of summer. Many people just pick a handful, but it makes me SO happy when I see people come out of the burgeoning rows with big bags bursting with peas! You can easily pick $50 worth of sugar snap peas, for FREE! I’m sure there will be peas for one more week, but if it gets hot they won’t last more than two weeks.
Something else to take advantage of is the U-Pick Cutting Garden. We plant all these beautiful flowers, and weed and water them, just for you—our loyal subscribers! So please come down and get a HUGE bunch of blooms. Kim here did herself proud and got enough for FOUR VASES! It makes me so happy to see people enjoying them! See my separate post about cutting flowers here.
The zucchini were blooming this week, and we actually did scrounge to get enough to give everyone two tiny zucchini, but don’t fear, there will be more. I ate my first green bean today, and while there aren’t many yet, there will be soon. The cucumbers are spilling off of their trellises now, and they are covered with 2-3″ fruits, so it really won’t be long until they are ready, as well as the new cilantro and dill crops. Just in time.
The poor hens that I wrote about last week are still traumatized, and are coping with a serious case of PTSD. We try to be calm when we go in to feed or collect eggs, but even that sends them into a panic. The mink really did a job on them—and we lost 30 hens. Mike did a head count the other night to get a tally. We started with 100 in that flock, so we are down by one-third.
The last of the summer crops are going in this week, as well as the first of the winter crops. July is the peak of busyness around here. Long days make for good sleep.

NMSU’s Arrowhead Center to host inaugural AgSprint Assembly
LAS CRUCES - Leaders and entrepreneurs in the world of agricultural technology will join promising agtech startups to discuss ideas to help promote and develop agtech investments in New Mexico, as well as the global state of agriculture, at the inaugural AgSprint Assembly, which will take place Aug. 10 at the New Mexico Farm and Ranch Heritage Museum in Las Cruces.
AgSprint Assembly features exceptionally productive ag-market leaders who will talk about demands from the frontlines, translating ideas from vision to reality and the future of agtech investment. Zetdi Sloan, director of Arrowhead Technology Incubator, said the event represents the coming together of various contributors to the agtech ecosystem.
“The event is designed to bring together key players across the agriculture value chain – growers, suppliers and funders – that will lead to opportunities, strategic alliances and targeted support,” Sloan said. “This event is for thought leaders and innovators who share a desire for advancing New Mexico’s position in the agtech ecosystem.”
Rolando Flores, dean of the College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences at NMSU, said agriculture is becoming increasingly important as the world’s population grows.
“Agriculture is a very important industry to New Mexico, the U.S. and the world; succinctly put, it produces the food that we consume,” Flores said. “Nowadays more than ever, the interaction of the food producers and entrepreneurs is very relevant to be able to produce the food needed to feed the increasing world population with the appropriate and sustainable technologies that would continue the success of U.S. agriculture.”
The AgSprint Assembly event will give startup companies participating in the AgSprint accelerator program the opportunity to pitch their products and services, and engage with their corporate and funding peers in a one-on-one format. According to AgFunder.com, $3.63 billion was invested in agtech globally. While agtech startups in California, New York and Massachusetts accounted for 73 percent of investment in the U.S. last year, New Mexico received very little agtech investment funding, according to research by AgFunder.com.
“Tomorrow’s agriculture depends on the technological innovations of today,” said New Mexico Secretary of Agriculture Jeff Witte. “The AgSprint Assembly provides an exciting opportunity to showcase emerging technologies for agriculture and food production.”
NMSU alumna Vonnie Estes, one of the leading female executives in the biotech industry, will be the event’s keynote speaker. The Biotechnology Innovation Organization will recognize Estes with its Rosalind Franklin Award for Leadership in Industrial Biotechnology at the 2017 BIO World Congress on Industrial Biotechnology in Canada later this month.
Cheryl Clements, founder and CEO of PieShell, will also be a featured speaker at AgSprint Assembly. PieShell started as a small family pie-making business that eventually morphed into a business that fulfilled the need for a crowdfunding platform for food-based entrepreneurs.
The Arrowhead Technology Incubator launched AgSprint, a five-month venture builder program designed to support innovation in agriculture, earlier this year. AgSprint acts as a facilitator, connecting agricultural entrepreneurs to financing, demonstration and validation partners, academic faculty, corporate partners and more.
Presentation topics include investor insights, what helps and hinders producers’ adoption of new technologies, and lessons from New Mexico agtech startup stars on successes and failures. AgSprint Assembly is also featuring an Open Mic event where entrepreneurs can pitch their ideas to investors, corporations and community ecosystem builders who will help support business development.

The start of my birthday break. I just went down for the morning today and got the entire ledge weeded. There was lots of nettle – with very long, spreading roots – and an amount of bindweed to get rid of. There shouldn’t be too much mulching to do, as there’s still lots of compost there.
The compost heap has been disturbed an amount and more has been kicked down the back by the shed again. So I guess the rat is still around.


Welcome to contact us for site inspection
The sweet potato residue drying project that our company cooperates with Shaanxi customers has been officially completed. The installation and commissioning work of this project has been completed, and the equipment can be officially put into operation after the equipment test. In the Shanxi potato residue drying project, our company provides customers with equipment for dehydration and drying of sweet potato residue. The production line includes heat source equipment, dewatering equipment, drying equipment, dust removal equipment, and electronic control equipment. The production line equipment is customized by our company for the production needs of our customers.
“ Our equipment has been running steadily for a year, which has brought us considerable benefits. During the period, if there are any questions, we will be patiently answered, thanks. ”
“ To solve our problems practically, the service is very attentive. Not only can we provide one-to-one equipment production notes, but also be patient to train us professional production line equipment operators for free, without worrying about later use problems. ”
“ The dehydration effect is very good, and has done a lot of necessary work for the later drying of lees. Our company has customized several belt dehydrators to work at the same time, greatly improving the efficiency. ”
“ Dingli's technical engineers have designed a production line solution suitable for us according to our needs, which has saved a lot of costs and expenses. Thank you very much. ”
“ The on-site engineers are very patient and very careful. They helped us install the equipment for free, and conducted a series of trainings such as operation for our employees. ”
“ We have purchased a complete set of drying equipment, which has been operating well, efficient, and the quality of the final product is very good. Dingli's technical staff will call back regularly, and any problems can be resolved in time. Like your service! ”


A caving fork
We have a caving fork in our collection at Market Lavington Museum. This is not a piece of speleology equipment for potholers, but was used during the threshing process on arable farms.
Before the days of combine harvesters, threshing machines were used to separate the corn seeds from the straw. See Steam Threshing, Market Lavington, Threshing in 1945 and Threshing in 1976. This was quite labour intensive work and one person would use a caving or keeving fork to clear straw away from the machine.
Our fork belonged to Aubrey Williams, of Court Close Farm in Easterton, hence the initials AW.

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow, Ranking Member of the U.S. Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry, today issued the following statement after the Trump Administration announced their final rule to implement the relief Congress provided in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act to help farmers who have experienced losses due to the COVID-19 crisis through direct assistance and food purchases.
“In Michigan and across the country, so many farmers have been hit hard by the pandemic and need immediate assistance.
“As these new payments are announced, I’ll be monitoring closely to ensure that the relief reaches the farmers and ranchers hit the hardest. I have had concerns since the beginning of the Market Facilitation Program that the Administration’s assistance to farmers has picked winners and losers among crops and regions, while failing to address the overall damage felt by farmers.”
Stabenow has consistently raised strong concerns around the equity of the Trump Administration’s payments to farmers. In November, Stabenow released a comprehensive report detailing concerns that the Trump Administration distributed their trade aid unevenly across the country, benefiting regions and farms that have experienced less trade damage. This month, Kansas State University researchers validated these findings in an economic analysis of the distribution of trade assistance.
Unfortunately, the Administration has ignored suggested improvements and doubled down on its flawed approach. In February, Stabenow announced the GAO will investigate the integrity of the Trump Administration’s aid to farmers.

The walled garden is split into two sections - north and south, both
equally impressive. The North Walled Garden contains a large working garden, growing
vegetables and with a large selection of fruit trees on the western wall, which
turns the corner into an impressive bed of sunflowers of all varities. The centrepiece
to the northern section is a beautiful double herbaceous border running the length
of the middle and a haven for butterflies in the summer.
The South Walled Garden
consists of a herb garden to the east, which is entered through an arch of apple
trees, while, in the centre lies the grassy area of the garden laid out in a contemporary
style. There are various beds in the garden, each celebrating different varieties
Over to the western
edge sits the working vinery. In the eighteenth and early Nineteenth Centuries
a vinery was one of the ultimate status symbols, not only did it show you had
conspicuous wealth, by affording to build one in the first place, but also that
you could afford a highly talented gardener to keep the vines alive!
gardeners are no less talented, and the vinery is still in perfect working order
today, with an ingenious system for maintaining the temperature. Animal droppings
are placed in the dark coloured hatches under the vinery, as the black material
absorbs the heat of the sun, the dung heats up and releases warm gases which then
flow through pipes keeping the vinery warm.

Future Plants was a collective effort among several companies intended to realize and market new products in the world of plants. The individual companies were specialized in breeding, propagating, production and trade of miscellaneous perennials.
By combining forces, a type of chain integration was established on which Future Plants could serve the market in its own special way. Future Plants has created and secured a strong position by protecting most of it’s perennials in Europe, USA, Canada and some even in Japan. The introduction of new perennials comes mainly by working closely together with other specialized breeders, but also by our own selective breeding efforts.
Gerrit and Hein Lommerse, current owners, are proud to continue to vision and work of Future Plants and are continuously testing and selecting new varieties

Gore Street Community Garden
The Mission Hill Health Movement has responded to community demands in 2016 for a Community Garden at 6-8 Gore Street. Since it was designated tentative developer in June 2018, the MHHM has been refining the initial plan in order to become the property owner in July 2019.
The vision for the Gore St Community Garden is to make a true community space that includes:
The garden will also have required open hours during certain daytimes which will allow people a place to sit outside. At its May 2019 Board Meeting, the MHHM adopted rules for operating the Gore St Community Garden to allow for smooth operation and
In Winter 2019, the MHHM worked with Landscape Design Laura Feddersen to develop a final plan and budget. Ms. Fedderson will also oversee the construction of the Garden. She will lead the Garden Committee through the material and contractor selection process to have construction begin late summer 2019.
The current plan shows berry bushes along the Gore St fence and 22 raised beds, including 3 that are wheel chair assessible. The MHHM has decided that a few beds will be available for "community gardening" for people who want to garden occasionally without a commitment to a gardening plot for a whole season. The MHHM has also reached out to the ABCD Head Start and Daycare to invite them to have a garden plot and learn to grow food. The remainder of the plots will be available for a 3 year term for community members. MHHM will allocate plots on a system for residents to use them for three years. The MHHM wants all residents to have a chance to raise fresh fruits and vegetables.
In May 2019, the City of Boston granted the MHHM PIP: Grassroots to fund in the amount of $62,000 for the construction of the Gore St Community Garden Wentworth Institute of Technology students will construct and donate the raised beds. The Mission Hill Health Movement is raising the remaining $10,000 in construction costs from foundations and individual donors. Please donate to this important neighborhood project.
Water to the 6-8 Gore Street Community Garden was initially going to be a challenge. In Spring of 2019, the City of Boston decided it should be responsible for making a water connection to the site as it is conveying the property for Garden purposes. The City plans to do this in a timely manner.
If you want to be on the 6-8 Gore Street Garden email list, please send a message to email@example.com. If you have questions about 6-8 Gore Street Community Garden or want to make a donation, Please email or call the Mission Hill Health Movement at 617-427-6919.
The next meeting of the 6-8 Gore Street Community Garden Committee is Monday, June 24 at 5:30- 6:30 pm at the MHHM office 1534 Tremont St. Committee Meetings are open to all interested Mission Hill Community Members.


Most people have a favourite citrus, and the Tangelo is mine! I love the sweet/tart flavour, and combine that with its easy peel nature and super juiciness, it is my ideal citrus. Very hard to find regularly in the supermarket, it pops up on the shelves occasionally between July and October, but rarely. Better to grow your own.
A Tangelo is a hybrid cross between a Mandarin and a Grapefruit, which give it the easy peel skin and sweet/tart flavour. They are all self-fertile and rapid growers that can reach around 4-8 metres tall by 4 metres wide. They are evergreen very attractive trees attractive. They make a great specimen tree, hedge or screen and are very hardy and cold tolerant. They prefer full sun.
A mid-season variety with large bright red to orange fruit and a glossy, thin skin. This one has a really tasty grapefruit flavour. The tree tends to bear fruit every second year (biennial bearing).
This tangelo was bred in the USA and has similar fruit to a Minneola except that the tree itself tends to over bear, making fruit smaller. It is wise for the home gardener growing this one to practise thinning the fruit. Fruit is late, ripening around July or August.


Hoxton Community Garden
The garden is owned by the Hoxton Trust.
Greenspace Management works with the trust to provide the overall care for the garden .
This is based on sustainable Organic principles and includes finding new ways to work with the community allowing best use of the space and a hands on gardening experience wherever possible
We are increasing species diversity with shrubs and herbaceous flowering plants and introducing rhubarb, currants, goosberries, apples, quince, bluberrries, grapes and annual vegetables .
Using cut wood from tree felling on site we are increasing and creating new habitat


There are two allotment sites at Highfield Park with a total of 82 allotments. Currently all the plots are let, but we do maintain a waiting list. There has been a lot of interest in allotments since the start of the pandemic in 2020 and the waiting list is currently over 40 people. However, if you are interested in joining the waiting list for an allotment, please contact the Trust on 01727 847242 or email at email@example.com
The majority of the plots are full size plot at £60 per year, although we do have a few half plots at £30 per year.

The Arizona/California desert growing region is forecast to receive light rainfall starting Sunday, January 21 that will increase to sporadic/heavy showers on Monday, January 22 with up to .75” possible. Markon worked with suppliers to pack orders ahead to minimize disruptions. Harvesting, production, and loading delays can be expected through the first part of the week.
Recent freezing temperatures had already begun to affect quality and shelf-life potential in many lettuce and tender leaf items. The upcoming rain threatens to exacerbate some of these issues and cause new challenges to develop. Below is a list of defects and issues that Markon inspectors are observing or watching out for.
- Bottom rot
- Decreased case weights for commodity lettuce items
- Discoloration and/or decay on epidermal blistering and peeling
- Dirt/mud on the product
- Increased mildew pressure
- Premature pinking in some value-added salads or Washed & Trimmed leaf lettuce packs
- Reduced shelf-life potential
- Yellowing leaves/discoloration
Harvesting and processing crews will work to keep boxes as clean and dry as possible and will take steps to remove defects where ever possible, but can’t avoid these issues completely. Ordering for quick turns is recommended and as always, maintaining the cold chain is critical for maximizing quality and shelf-life.
Please contact your Markon customer service representative for more information.

You might want to wait until it blooms or you will likely sacrifice many blooms in the first bloom cycle. If just a light pruning back is all you want to do, then you would likely be okay. However if it is a big shaping pruning, I would wait until the first flush of blooms is just starting to die back. Then prune them back, feed them and water well.

Gardeners are used to the summertime heat, and this year’s Tomato Tasting temperatures were only exceeded by Amador County’s enthusiasm for all things tomato. The annual UCCE Master Gardeners’ Tomato Tasting held August 24th at the Sutter Creek Farmers Market drew 76 entries spread almost evenly among Red, Non-Red, and Cherry tomatoes. Two returning judges, Steve Muni and George Erdosh, as well as JoLynn Miller, UCCE Central Sierra Director and 4-H Youth Development Advisor, blind-tasted, spit, smiled, and pondered over all the entries while making their final selections.
First place in Red tomatoes went to Susan Price of Sutter Creek with her Mountain Magic variety.
Big Beef, grown in Ione by Susan Port and Joan Winter, took second place; and Susan Price’s Paul Robeson finished third place.
In the Non-Red category placing first was Cherokee Green from Susan Port and Joan Winter. Noreen Goff in Sutter Creek took second place with her Big Rainbow variety. Cherokee Purple was in third place, grown by Ed Morin in Pine Grove.
The Cherry category grew to 22 entries with many gardeners bringing in some more unusual varieties like Amethyst Cream, Tumbling Tom, and Chocolate Sprinkles. In the end it was Wes Schultz of Sutter Creek placing first with Tiny Tim. Coming in second and third place was Sun Gold with second place going to Abbondanza in Plymouth, and third place to Tim Jelsch, also from Plymouth.
A whopping Striped German tomato weighing in at 25.8 ounces was brought in by Joyce Jillson of Harold who was awarded the price for Largest tomato at this year’s event.
Amador Master Gardeners would like to thank all the home gardeners who toiled through the summer to bring in such an amazing variety of tomatoes. Perhaps, with the public tasting which followed the judging, Amador gardeners have some new varieties to try for next year. We invite you all to participate in 2020.

Pumpkins Are Covered in Black Mold
I have several very small pumpkins that are covered in black fuzzy mold. What causes this and what can I do to prevent it?
Certified GKH Gardening Expert
It sounds like it has a form of sooty mold, which is a side effect of a pest infestation. I would treat the plant with neem oil. This will take care of both the sooty mold and any pests on the plant. This article has more information on neem: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/plant-problems/pests/pesticides/neem-oil-uses.htm

MTHANDAZO NYONI TOBACCO farmers this week demanded to receive 100% of their proceeds in United States dollars, saying input costs were rocketing due to high inflation and exchange rate volatilities.
They spoke as the Tobacco Industry and Marketing Board (Timb) said auction floors will open on March 30, a day before contract sales kick off on March 31.
The bulk of the tobacco will be sold through the contract system after 118 465 farmers produced tobacco under funding from the private sector.
About 4 530 were self-financed growers, according to Timb statistics.
These will sell their produce through the tobacco auction floors.
The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe said in February that tobacco farmers would be paid 75% of their sales proceeds in foreign currency.
The remaining 25% would be paid in the local currency, converted at the prevailing auction exchange rate on the day of sale.
However, farmers told businessdigest that the 75% was inadequate.

“Expectations are that we retain 100% United States dollars (USD). Input costs were very high. Everything was paid in USD including labour,” Commercial Farmers Union of Zimbabwe president Shadreck Makombe said.
“Contractors need to improve funding per hectare. The dry spell has affected most late crops and most farmers will have challenges in repaying loans.”
Top quality tobacco grades for premium brands are likely to remain unchanged at between US$3,5 per kilogramme and US$5,40 per kg, according to the Timb. The Zimbabwe Tobacco Association (ZTA) said, in its latest newsletter, the forex retention level of 75% “will sadly negate all the anticipated positives for the season hence diversification and identification of alternate crops to tobacco remains key for all growers”.
“Demand for Zimbabwe’s flavour tobacco remains very high. However, it is poor, inconsistent monetary policies that are hurting the local industry and impeding its growth,” ZTA said.
Tobacco Association Of Zimbabwe president George Seremwe said farmers were expecting the Timb to iron out problems that affected farmers last season.
“We have had a situation last year where contractors failed to pay farmers. To date, some of the farmers have not been paid. We do not expect that situation to happen. We don’t expect the same contractors to be buying tobacco this season until they fulfil last year’s obligations,” he said.
“We expect that the grading and pricing system to be uniform. We cannot have one contractor paying one grade higher than the other. We want that to be addressed as well.”
Seremwe said following a bad rainfall season, the quality and value of tobacco had been compromised.
He said buyers should consider this drawback when buying the tobacco.
Seremwe said the Timb must remove cartels within the tobacco industry.
“We all know that this sector is regarded as one of the heavily infected with cartels. This should end. We want sanity in the tobacco industry and I urge Timb to make sure that all these things negating the industry are eliminated,” he said.
A total of 210 million kgs of the golden leaf were delivered at the auction floors in the last marketing season, generating close to US$1 billion.

SGS, the world’s leading inspection, verification, testing and certification company and The Detox Project, owner of Glyphosate Residue Free certification, are pleased to announce that SGS laboratories across Europe, Asia and North America have been approved to provide testing against the Project’s Standard.
The Detox Project – Press Release
The accreditation comes at a time of increasing global demand for glyphosate testing and aims to make it easier for farmers, suppliers and manufacturers around the globe, many operating in locations where it is currently difficult to access testing services, to gain Glyphosate Residue Free certification.
The Detox Project has approved SGS’s state-of-the-art, ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratories across Europe, North America and Asia. The following laboratories are included in the program: Germany (Berlin), Turkey (Istanbul), Portugal (Lisbon), Ukraine (Odessa), USA (Brookings/SD), Canada (Vancouver), India (Chennai). South Korea (Uiwang) and Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh) are now approved to provide testing to achieve certification against The Detox Project’s Standard; with laboratories in Asia (Colombo and Taipei) and South America (Lima) expected to secure approval soon.
Glyphosate Residue Free certification verifies that ingredients or final food and supplement products do not contain the world’s most used herbicide, down to the European Union’s default Maximum Residue Limit for pesticides of 0.01 mg/kg (10 ppb).
Henry Rowlands, Director of The Detox Project, stated: “We welcome SGS on board as an approved testing provider. At a time of increasing global demand for glyphosate testing we want to support farmers, ingredient suppliers and brands around the world to gain Glyphosate Residue Free certification, especially in locations where it is currently difficult to find testing services accredited against our standard.”
Glyphosate is the most used herbicide in the world; its use has increased sharply over the last two decades with the introduction of GMO crops and pre-harvest spraying (desiccation) on some conventional crops. However, the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified glyphosate as “probably carcinogenic to humans” and linked it to Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, whilst the California Environmental Protection Agency has added glyphosate to the Prop 65 list of carcinogenic chemicals. A growing number of countries are banning its use.
Anna Theil-Gangl, SGS Vice-President for Global Food Compliance & Analytics, said: “Through our worldwide network of laboratories, our skilled technicians are best placed to develop and deliver the highest standards of food testing and certification services. The Detox Project is working hard to protect consumers by encouraging transparency in the food and supplement industries about toxic chemicals and we look forward to supporting them in their ambitions.”
SGS is the world’s leading inspection, verification, testing and certification company. SGS is recognized as the global benchmark for quality and integrity. With more than 94,000 employees, SGS operates a network of over 2,600 offices and laboratories around the world.
About The Detox Project
The Detox Project is a research and certification platform that encourages transparency in the food and supplement industries on the subject of toxic chemicals. The Detox Project’s Glyphosate Residue Free certification verifies that food and supplement products do not contain the World’s most used herbicide.

July 13, 2010 Weekly Square Foot Garden Update
The garden is progressing nicely and seems to be really enjoying this fine summer weather that we have had lately. I've had an unwanted visitor in the garden digging up my potatoes and I suspect it is a raccoon. I've left him a little surprise for his next visit. I had several pairs of robins nest on the property earlier this spring and I enjoyed talking to them as they fed their young and taught them to fly. I wasn't aware that they nest twice in the same season until this week when I discovered two new nests in the gardens.

All 4 colors can be displayed on one plant at the same time, creating quite a funky look.

Fresh from Rungis
Our buyer says: "There are lots of apples and pears. I recommend trying the fruit from our grower Fabien Vassout - varieties such as Reine de Reinette, Canada, Fuji, Jubilé, Calville, Clochard, Guyot, Passe Crassane and Williams Blanches. There are small volumes of black figs and the first quince. French lemons have started. Chestnuts are excellent. There are lots of nice mushrooms around, especially ceps.”
Other lines include: Romanesque, purple and yellow cauliflowers, black radish, carrots, leeks, celeriac, Lautrec garlic, salsify.
Fresh from Milan
Our buyer says: "We got the first bergamots and clementines this week. Cedro is in season. There’s some decent autumn asparagus. The brassicas and bitter leaves have started: castelfranco, trevisse, puntarelle, catalogna and cime di rapa. Our lovely mixed boxes of radicchio have not yet started. There are still some peaches from Sicily, a late variety. Italian kaki fruit (a.k.a. persimmons) are excellent – very soft, that’s how they are supposed to be. There are lots of courgettes about. Aubergines are really good. Tomatoes are expensive and not very good: the summer season ones are finishing and the winter ones have not really started. Lots of grapes everywhere as well. Delicious Italian Costeria navel oranges are on their way back to London”
Other lines include: chestnuts, basil, aubergine, chillis, fennel, peppers, prickly pears, Zerbinati melons.
Our buyer Gaelle is available on +33 789 866 675. She says: "French courgettes are almost end of season and being replaced by the Spanish. French cauliflowers and leeks are quite short and expensive. From Brittany new season coloured carrots, banana shallots and Jerusalem artichokes are available. Romanesco is currently affordable and there are still some coloured cauliflowers about. Muscade and gourds are full season in France, and Portuguese Muscade are also available. Spanish figs are still going to be around for a few more weeks. Spanish broccoli is available, as well as aubergines which have increased in volume the last week and are good quality. Tomatoes have been short for a few weeks, and we still have to wait for another few weeks for the Moroccan to start. Some Moroccan goods have started in small volumes (green beans, coco flat beans, kapya, chilies). There is currently a shortage on Egyptian sweet potatoes."

WARMINSTER, PA — Feeding America®, the nation’s largest hunger-relief organization, has partnered for the first time with Burpee Gardening to help spur action to end food insecurity in America. The 145-year-old Pennsylvania-based seed and plant company, which championed the successful “Victory Gardens” program during World Wars I and II, will donate some 11 million vegetable seeds to Feeding America-affiliated community gardens during September’s Hunger Action Month. The donation will ultimately reap fresh produce for distribution to local food banks.
With an estimated one in eight, or 42 million Americans, currently experiencing food insecurity, the seed donation comes at a time when many are forced to choose between basic needs like electricity, childcare, or medicine and feeding their families. Burpee endorses the hunger organization’s credo that “FOOD shouldn’t be an IMPOSSIBLE CHOICE.”
“The pandemic has thrust millions more Americans into a situation where a daily meal is not a given,” noted George Ball, chairman, Burpee Gardening. “We view the current challenges as no less significant than those that led to the creation of Victory Gardens during the two world wars when government food rationing along with labor and transportation shortages made home-grown fruits and vegetables a vital necessity and ultimately a source of civic pride. Burpee is proud to once again step up to help drive this critically important initiative from Feeding America.”
As part of its role in Hunger Action Month and on Hunger Awareness Day September 17, Burpee Gardening will give 500-1000 vegetable seed packets to community gardens that help support Feeding America partner organizations. Packets include multi-colored carrots, “Buttercrunch” lettuce, summer squash, string beans, “Fourth of July” tomatoes, snow peas, radishes, jalapeno peppers, and more. Since 1876, Burpee’s horticulturalists have taken pride in innovating countless varieties of vegetables. For the Feeding America selection, the company promises successful harvests in every growth zone.
“Every community in the country is home to families who face hunger,” said Lauren Biedron, Vice President of Corporate Partnerships at Feeding America. “As the pandemic continues to impact so many of our neighbors, we commend Burpee for their partnership and unique commitment to helping people put food on the table.”
In a 21st century update to its efforts enabling Victory Gardens, Burpee Gardening will use its popular Instagram, Facebook and Twitter channels to spread the word about Hunger Action Month beginning on September 1. Comments, shares, and likes of a series of Burpee/Feeding America posts during the month will trigger donations from the company to community gardens associated with Feeding America’s food bank network.

US wheat and corn futures settled lower. Paris wheat was steady and rapeseed slightly firmer.
- Chicago wheat December contract down US5 cents per bushel to 553.25;
- Kansas wheat December contract was down 3.5c/bu to 475.75c;
- Minneapolis wheat December contract down 0.25c/bu to 547.25;
- MATIF wheat December contract unchanged at €188;
- Corn December contract down 5c/bu to 353.75;
- Soybeans November contract up 4c/bu to 966;
- Winnipeg canola November up C$0.20 to C$503.70;
- MATIF rapeseed November contract up €0.25/t to €384;
- Brent crude November contract down US$0.36 per barrel to $44.07;
- Dow Jones index points down 808 points to 28,293;
- AUD weaker at $0.727;
- CAD weaker at $1.313;
- EUR unchanged at $1.185.
Wheat’s sell off continued with Chicago closing down a nickle to 553 1/4¢, KC -3.5¢ to 475 3/4¢, Minny – 1/4¢ to 547 1/4¢, and Matif unch. Corn also took a cut, dropping a nickle to 353 3/4¢ and beans were up 4 cents (Matif up a quarter euro, Winnipeg up twenty cents). Crude dropped thirty cents to $41.1 WTI / $44.1 Brent and the DOW sold off 808 points with a big move downwards in tech stocks leading the way.

We’re going into a long weekend, the USDA WASDE report won’t be out until later next week, and overall news situation around the world is quiet. It certainly feels like there’s been some profit taking after the rally on agricultural commodities. With a long weekend upcoming for traders to reconsider market ideas, what is going to be the big driver into next week? We know the USDA report will be there, but calling sentiment there after the recent rally is tricky. On one hand yield ideas on row crops are definitely lower than they were just a few weeks ago, but on the other corn and bean markets have already done a lot of the “job” needed to compensate for lower production. China’s still the wild card, of course, and a resumption to the semi-regular sales flashes today as helped stoke the fires for bulls.
- US futures markets will be closed next Monday and Monday night (Sunday night and Monday US time) for Labor Day holiday
- The next USDA WASDE report will be out Friday, September 11th (US time)
- Egypt’s GASC bought one Russian boat. With offers up into the low $230s per tonne CandF range it would seem GASC didn’t like the higher prices. The offers were all of Black Sea origin, the majority Russian and two Ukrainian. Price moves were largely in line with the broader market shift since last tender
- US export sales figures had corn sales at 2.4 million tonnes (Mt), beans 1.7Mt and wheat 585,000t. They were all at the higher end of estimates but still within expected ranges . Sorghum sales had two boats to China, and there was 250,000t wheat business to China, partially confirming old rumours.
- New flashes last night saw 450,000t of beans sold. Two boats unknown but the rest confirmed China
- There’s a little more rain pushing onto the forecast maps for the US corn belt. The big question now is how much damage has been done with the recent weather, and everyone is busy speculating and assessing.
- New crop bids soften by a dollar in Vic while the NSW Port Kembla zone remain relatively firm
- The GM canola discount to non-GM starts to narrow along the east coast, shrinking to $45-50/t range. It had previously got out to -$65/t.
- Mice issues become more of a problem up in Queensland cropping region with growers baiting
- AUD/USD peels back to .73 range after a short-lived overbought RSI reading
- Vetch hay starting to get dropped around SA and the Vic Mallee region
- Border closures and access to contractors and staff still front of mind for growers as we lead into harvest.
