Gardening and Homesteading Goals for 2015

Gardening and Homesteading Goals for 2015

Goals for 2015The gardening season has ended for 2014…for the most part. I still have a variety of peppers and some flowers doing well. I also have a cold frame with greens going strong but I have done a massive fall cleanup and most of my garden beds will rest until spring. With everything I learned this year I am already making plans for next!

My organic garden goals for 2015 are to grow everything I grew in 2014 and:

  • Make potato cages and grow alot more
  • Start my seedlings earlier!
  • Add leeks and brussels sprouts for fall/winter
  • Grow more carrots
  • Grow different pumpkin varieties (jarrahdale and lady godiva) and grow more
  • Add another raised bed and a hoop with a fabric covering
  • Add more herbs and veggies
  • Plant spring bulbs
  • Add another rain barrel

My homesteading goals for 2015:

  • Add bees/beehive
  • Start making homemade gingerale
  • Ferment fruits/veggies/juices with help from Oh Lardy’s Guide to Fermenting Fruits and Vegetables
  • Ramp up our aquaponics installation and add bass or tilapia to the mix
  • Make soap

What are your goals???
