Hello fellow gardeners, this week I’d like to discuss growing edibles in your home garden. I’ve previously emphasized the use of compost in your soil, and any organic fertilizers, to “build up” the soil health, and that’s critical for edibles as well. Edibles can be anything from fruit and nut trees to tomatoes and herbs and there are just as many ways to integrate them into your garden setting as there are gardens.

Watch for suspicious emails A warning about possible email scams By Jodi Thomas What will they think of next to steal our identity? I have a Gmail e-mail account and I have recently found myself receiving emails from people I know that are on our email address list. My friends have been telling me that they’ve been having the same problem. I thought these emails odd at first sight because these people had never sent such emails before. Some of the e-mails were from people I only do business with, and rarely hear from. In each case these emails were
sent to a long line of the sender’s email friends. The lead in words on the emails would say, “Breaking News” or “Hello!” Scammers use words that catch your attention or seem familiar, yet are generic. In each case I usually do not open the links on these unsolicited non-business emails because I am generally too busy to wait for the links to open. Besides, it takes too much data to open them if they end up being a video. That is probably a good thing because the last one I received
