What we are GROWING in 2023!

Every year we plant a garden and in recent years we've also planted in our greenhouse. We love to bring you along as we do our planting and then throughout the growing season, we love to show you all how well the plants produce their fruits. Each year we also share the varieties we grow in our videos but we always get requests for a written list of what varieties we grow and where we have found them. This year we are providing that to you.

This year, many of the seeds we purchased were from MIgardener. Much like Living Traditions Homestead, MIgardener is a small business owned by a husband and wife team (Luke and Sindy Marion). Luke and Sindy are avid gardeners and have a passion for providing resources to people about growing food. Similar to LTH, they share informative videos on YouTube and have a website full of information, but they also gather seeds from many small seed producers to sell to gardeners like you and us at an affordable price. We admire their enthusiasm and their business and we are proud to recommend them to you all.
