How to Make a Terrarium

March 6, 2013 by Jeanne

The workshop at B & M Greenhouse in Farmville on how to make a terrarium was so much fun. As someone in the group said, “There wasn’t a bad one in the bunch.”  About 20 people came and made beautiful terrariums using tropical plants, mosses and rocks. Tina brought a gorgeous array of mosses that would have made its own lovely planter. People used wonderful colors and textures to decorate their planters.  It was a lot of fun, and although I was a helper and thus did not make a terrarium, the class inspired me to write a new article called How to Make a Terrarium. I hope you enjoy it and I’d welcome it if you would share the link to the article on your favorite social media platforms.

Work continues on my new home and garden lifestyle website, Get Your Hands Dirty Gardening, and on the book revisions. I’ve been in the middle of a large content writing project and enjoying it enormously since it is about one of my favorite topics, horses – but I haven’t had much time to work on my book and personal writing. It’s always a trade off, isn’t it? Sometimes you have time to work on your personal projects, but no immediate income comes in from them and the bills still need to be paid. At other times, the consulting and writing work is busy, so there is no time for personal writing. I hope to work a little bit on it later this week. I’m so happy to be sharing some of my off beat gardening tips, recipes and thoughts with you on the new site!

Watermelon in the Home Garden

Growing watermelon in the home garden is not for the faint of heart. I have plenty of room, and it still threatened to take over the garden. You will either need to leave a lot of room for the sprawling vines or look for varieties specifically marked for containers. Growing it on a trellis is…

Growing Zucchini in Raised Beds

Growing zucchini in raised beds ensures that this prolific vegetable has the best conditions to thrive. You can grow zucchini in pots or containers, but I prefer growing it in raised beds. This is a great vegetable to grow if you have a “black thumb” and kill plastic plants, because it’s hard to grow a…

Wondering how to grow onions? I’ve grown onions here at Seven Oaks Farm in several ways: from “sets” or starter plants and from store-bought onions that sprouted in the bag! Onions don’t require much space, and you can grow a lot for the money you spend on starter plants. Let’s take a look at how…
