What's up Josh! How you been? Where I get the pepper spray man? Which is the best one to ward off critters? Thanks!

Forgot! Also looking and needing more Odawa soup beans and Potawatomi red dent corn for my gardens if anybody have those as well as Slovenian potatoes and Mushito Blue corn for next year. Please message me if you all have stuff from Michochan, Jalisco and Guanjanto in Mexico to help build a Mexican settler and tribal garden next year in my community to remember my local past.
Take care.

Good evening friends! How are you? Blake has been so devastated about the loss of all of his Choctaw red corn and they an heirloom to my Mississippi past. Had high hopes this year after the work I put into growing them this year, but all went to flames by critters chewing every last ear.
Don't know what to do or where to go. How we protect our corn this late without netting or other complex commercial material? Are there any natural or homemade remedies to stop squirrels or other pesky creatures? Did all I could to protect my corn, but weather and creatures are too much. Please drop off any feedback if you need me. Good night.

Good afternoon! Could dead hedgerows be used as brush piles and have vegetation grow over them to draw in pollinators and other creatures? I'm trying to draw more birds, insects and other small creatures to my areas of my gardens to create a community. Thanks!

What's happening folks! Could we also add scraps into the soil for it be enriched and make way for new crops to be planted to prolong new growth? Could old bread be thrown into the mix? Bread is grain isn't it?
 How deep we bury the scraps in order to plant crops in after that? I'd like to see the results from it. Thanks!

Good morning Anne. What methods are used for beginners to improve their soil to be enriched enough in place of fertilizer? What ingredients needed to build a better soil?
Never thought of that before. Thanks!

Could garlic or onions be dried out to create ground seasoning for recipes? How we dry the stuff? And how could they be grinded just as black pepper? We always see ground onion at grocery stores and have been processed. Good night.

Good evening. I'd like to find out if we could do the same thing for elephant leeks and hard neck or other types of garlic which I have right now. I have Cherokee garlic and Hanging Dog elephant leeks and don't know when they'll be ripe. Take care.
