Patience is a virtue!This is a tray of butternut seeds I planted April 7th.I kind of gave up on them and just shrugged that the germination rate must have been low but never got around to dumping the soil and cleaning out the trays and look at that! Im not great at patience so will take this as a lesson.#naganonaturally #growingbutternuts #patienceisavirtue ... See MoreSee Less

Live update from the quest for sweet potato slips. Got here 10 minutes early and I’m number 54 in line.Thinking my best bet is if there’s a scalper ahead of me as I’m willing yo pay double the tag price by now as the petrol getting here and back is getting ridiculous!Stay tuned for exciting updates on the quest for sweet potatoes!#naganonaturally #growingsweetpotatoes ...

I drove 20 minutes through a town that not only had their roads planned pre-car but also seems to feel winding mountain roads with blind corners are a good way to reduce traffic to get to a village that randomly has one of the best farm stores around. I have no idea how or why but it’s a store that has the seeds you can’t find elsewhere, it has the random hand-tool you’ve been dreaming of but didn’t know existed and it has more varieties of seed potato and sweet potato slip than the other stores around here combined. So when I went there for seeds on Mother’s Day and found these amazingly healthy sweet potato slips and they wrapped them up like a bouquet it made me laugh and smile all the whole day. I’m not a cut flower fan so this was me covered! I was able to get my yam type annoimo and some silky sweet variety but I really wanted Beni Azuma type. The buckets were empty but there was a sign saying “more stock 5/10”. No problem. I didn’t want to look too keen (uncool) so I turned up at 9:45 (they open at 9:00.) There was a new sign taped underneath saying “due 11am”. Darn it. That kind of wasted my trip but I really want those slips so sigh. I kind of stand out around here and was seen walking in to the shop, seeing the sign and walking out again so I decided I’d aim for 11:30 to go back. I mean I need to stay cool right? Braved the roads of certain death (again), and walked in to see half the buckets were full. Got some Kintoki. Waiting for a crowd of three old guys in front of me (it’s the kind of store where three guys is a crowd) and as I’m inching down the row of buckets I notice- darn it! Beni Azuma is empty. No problem. There’s one register operator and three women behind her bunching slips. Score! I’ll just ask for some super fresh, not even on the shelf yet Beni Azuma. She laughs all wide eyed and says they’re sold out. I ask if they have any more in back as they only went on sale at 11 right? “Yes! But there were so many customers!” She tells me they’ll have more Thursday at 11 but I should come early. Sigh, I’m going to have to throw cool to the wind and turn up at 10:45 to beat the old guys. To be continued. #naganonaturally

My happy place. In the sun, on the “lawn”, planting up seed trays. There’s so much optimism and positivity in sowing seeds you just can’t help being happy. It’s a very relaxing job that leaves plenty of time for reflection and pondering. The perfect time to remember the last growing season and think about what you want to do differently this time around. #naganonaturally #sowingseeds #myhappyplace ... See MoreSee Less
