Reply:  To Questions About Situating A Greenhouse  In The Garden & Growing Food, Okanagan Valley North, BC.      July10/13

Greetings Elisha,
As indicated in the previous e-mail of July 7, 2013, Part ii, GreenHouse Orientation & Development Plus Garden Recommendations are attached;  The GreenHouse Crop Fact Sheet Authored earlier, appears below in four pages. Voila !

To help prepare the Garden & GreenHouse Site for the next  Growing Season,  the lawn grass needs to be brown & turned over so it has a chance to be decomposed before this time next season.

My beautiful picture

Broccoli Grows Well In The Cool Climate Near The Start & End Of The Growing Season. No Pesticides Are Needed In Central Newfoundland.

Available at garden supply/nursery outlets are rolls of black porous nylon/polyethylene weave material to cover the grass & weighted down with rocks/weights on top. The artificial porous mulch material blocks out the light but allows the rain water through. The artificial black porous plastic nylon weave mulch material is designed to prevent weed growth but not restrict water from reaching the Tree & Plant roots where it is being utilized. The additional area being covered during this summer would allow more time in the late summer early fall to turn in the  brown dead sod for the start of early decomposition in preparation for the next growing season.

Thank You Letter,   July10/13
Wow, wow, wow! I have yet to truly “dig” (hah,hah) into your e-mails here about the Vegetable Garden and Greenhouse but at first glance I can see I have just received “Gardening 101 by Uncle Ed”.

Have you thought about a Video series on your Sustainable Lawn Web Site? Your passion for your work would come through beautifully in video. Too bad you’re not here on an extended stay, we could work on the project together and record as we go !
Thank you, thank you for helping point me in the right direction (literally with Greenhouse orientation !) I just killed the potted strawberry plants on my deck.The kids are not pleased with me. Perhaps I will have better luck working directly with Mother Earth.
I will send pictures as I go. My Plans are to devote time in August to working up in the Orchard.  We leave next week for Vancouver Island and Kootenays for some much needed   R & R with Family.
Muchest Love To You Both !
Elisha, Kelly, Olivia & Zakk   Kittson,   Okanagan North,  BC.
