Returning Home to a Jungle of Peas, Carrots, Basil & One Zucchini after Hot Days
Market Gardening in Southeast Alaska
Notes Week Ending August 9
Another week of nice weather in the 70s after a week of hot weather when I was gone last week. Large orders of some items, especially of carrots and more lettuce mix than usual with a few new customers. All three refrigerators stocked completely full with veggies. Check garlic and only about three leaves have died back, so will harvest next week after another forecast of dry weather; garlic maturing later than last year. Also, first week seeing ripe berries on the SW Hugelkultur raspberry plants.
Greenhouses:
GH2 a lot of basil growth after hot weather all previous week. Getting almost one ounce of basil per plant and estimate that I could harvest from both beds a total of about thirty larger 3-oz size bag this week, but only receive orders for 20 bags. Radishes planted at bed ends for slugs are mature to harvest if they had been grown for a crop. GH2S Orach harvest one row for lettuce mix. GH1 basil is not quite ready to harvest - definitely started and planted a little too late. GH1W three zucchini plants have one nice size fruit that I pick for myself and a few others growing nicely after most had been rotting during cool, wet weather.
Herbs & Onion Family:
NE3A Parsley continue harvest (about the right size bed at 20 feet) & NE3B Dill able to get a small harvest (forgot to activate dill in Food4All, so only get orders for a few bunches, so turn 10 smaller bunches into 5 larger ones, and sell them all), NE3B Cilantro second planting of tiny starts in soil blocks did not make it through the hot weather and some appear to be eaten by slugs. NE4A Leek harvest of a few bunches for personal use from plants that are already much bigger than last year, and NE4B Green Onion second patch harvest for the first time, although they could have been harvested previous week.
Peas:
Previous harvest before traveling from NE1 Pea harvest ~6 lb; this week NE1 harvest ~8 lb. NE2 harvest for the first time ~8 lb, which could probably have been harvested for the first time last week. Some NE2 vines fell over and need to be retrained up trellis and dead ones removed. Sell peas in one-pound packs instead of the smaller 4 oz and 8 oz options in order to sell the larger quantity, but sell out too quickly.
Lettuce Mix:
End up composting excess Green Salanova lettuce tub ~5 pounds from the previous harvest along with two bags of uneaten personal use lettuce mix. Harvest lettuce after sun starts to go down and greens bubbler & bag late into the night. NE5A Green Salanova (accidentally only seeded green) heads ready to harvest last week are big this week, so only harvest half of the patch ~10 feet for about 16 pounds and then mix with GH2S Orach ~0.5 lb, NE7A Mizuna two rows ~2 lb, and NW1A(1) BChard half of a patch ~5 feet ~1.5 lb. Sell more lettuce mix this week than typical. NE5B Salanova not quite ready to harvest this week.
Carrots:
NW4 Carrot Yaya harvested once before, selecting for large size only, and this week continue harvesting almost the full bed all carrots regardless of size to try and clear bed for NRCS tunnel buffer, and note that most carrots were a decent size. Sell a lot of carrots 52 bunches with bunches about 1 pound weight checked later without tops.
Greens:
Way too much kale growing in one bed of Toscana and small path of Dazzling blue, and need to harvest & freeze some for myself. Seeing a few caterpillars in kale, but not much. Too much chard for what I'm selling, and plants are looking nice with insect netting and slug boards. Collard greens are turning light green color as they've done in the past this time of year.

I was happea with the jungle of carrots too 🫛🙂🥕 Thank You Wayne ❤️
I think you could say you have a bumper crop of everything! Even deer! And blueberries and squash 👍. And PANSIES!!!!!!! So pretty. Glad you got the peas under control. They were lookin’ quite like they might take over. ❤️🤗
The bumper crop of deer was especially big this last week 😄 They kept popping up everywhere and surprising me. Yep, those peas were having a bad hair day, but I got lots of peas from them 🫛🫛🫛 Fun to get the little bit of blueberries from shiny new plants, plus the little squash. I might cut away the squash plants now so that I can walk around in that greenhouse 😬 Love You Nonner Nut Noodle 🥜🤗😘❤️
Everything looks very lush! I'm sorry to hear about your family troubles. 💚
Thanks Falafel ❤️ Life is hard sometimes as you know. I hope that you continue to heal well 🤗 This is the fluffiest garden that I've ever grown, and I've learned a lot this season.
Deer moms and dear moms, that garlic looks amazing!
Yes, they are both dear ❤️ That garlic plant that I pulled was a beauty. I hope that they all look like that!

Thank You for your thoughts and encouragement 💚🌱 You are tough to read through the long notes in the video description. Normally I hand-write my garden logs, but a few weeks back I decided to be more efficient and type the notes into the computer then paste them in with the video, getting both garden notes and video summary done at the same time. It's working out good so far.

Wow the basil looks great! Love to see the pansies and the deer :) And blueberries + first zucchini!!! The carrots look delicious. Exciting to see it all stacked up to sell. Sending love to you and your family 💛
The garden was loving the sun and extra fluffy this last week 🌞 I forgot to show that I had the first few red berries on the raspberry plants too. Thank You Trina ❤️
Little deer at 0:53...how wonderful!
There were so many deer around the garden this week and the baby deer are little darlings 😍💛

@@PotatoPeter oh darn, I was probably spacing out 🫢 It was cool to see that buck landscaping the shrubbery by the library!
Looks like so much fun 😊
That trip was a blast!
So much wildness! Not wilderness just wildness. A park within a park within a park . . . Until you get to Ivy Patch Gardens and only then are there veggies to eat. The deer are like locals - just shows up wherever LOL! Nice tour! Thanks.
Hi Nonner Nut Noodle fancy meeting you here 🤗💛 Just goes to show that the deer would gobble my whole garden if I didn't have it fenced. That deer was trimming the trees when I was walking by the library 😄
It looks more like a park than an airport loop. Beautiful!
It's a really pretty walk and there is never much traffic on the road 🌲❤️🌿
Started out with a dear Deer...how wonderful!
That dear deer was doing some landscaping work 🌳🦌
Gabriola island in our gulf islands has petroglyphs also. A book about them that I had taken out of the library as a teen probably prevented me from getting arrested one fine evening. You be careful when your flying out, that runway looks suspect, also your arms will get super tired.
Pretty cool to look at carvings that were made so long ago. I thought that the airport runway was a diving board and ended up going for a swim; thank goodness I was wearing my red bathing suit!
Mercies as thank you sister Lord lovinn' Ivy (inn chwrist gsus' creativity inn deed). Note of hope only and ONLY two be taken for the grain of salt; Competition is already won knot two compete. As: I personally believe one should be saling as the price as what the 'corporate' stores are saling........ It is knot for the love of booty/money but for the love of life and of course, death. Gotta have one because the other would make one realize what's really g(r)o(w)inng on. For example: I "personally" witness 'locals' saling as if they have a big bill two pay. I am a total virgin/novice about many things but aGAIN, i witness 'local' FOODS that are in the rich person's reach....... A gallon of local milk is 7-10.00? I just was blessed two purchase three bunches of Kale, prpl Broccoli, and spinach and the price was/is four dollars for a bunch. Competition? I would assume. If one is saling two compete then....the growth inn maturity is lacking i believe and assume. Knot perfect but consider WHY one knot saling at the same price that someone CAN AFFORD. I personally would look at the food market and follow what is reasonable and efficient and sustainable if it were me. Every person has talent and skill given from the bill and grill maker of course. Knot one is better than the other and all have gifts given from the gifter two wrap and unwrap with,for the love of gawd's. I know this is a bunch of rant and is knot precise but, point being is this: Why compete when the war(monger) already won two win with. Producing two provide is a gift from above (landing soft as a dove). Yes. Money is needed but first, what is provided for the vibe is always abundant two give back..... For example: Look at the food prices on a wal mart, carrs, freds, three bears, etcetera website. Who is going two buy their product versus a double priced food product. I would buy local goods but if I couldn't afford it what would others due all sew of they'd witness goods they could afford. Would you believe this. I was blessed two purchase a Pro Max 12 iPhone three years ago. Priced at 1300.00. It is now valued at 500.00. The MAIN reason I purchased and willed two purchase this Pro Max 12 iPhone, is because the sales pitch said, "three day battery life". Naive and a simpleton I am. Theories are tested and sum are facts found and then others are knot granted two understand or simply IGNORED. The game of life, price, and death is inn the eye of the one who gives gifts two wrap and unwrap with in deed. I apologize for writing sew much when the precision for the vision can be poured on..... Don't compete but give two the ones who can afford and all will g(r)o(w) accordingly i due believe. There. Blame gawd as praise gsus' for the sword that whets.....for sharpening. sWORDS: Genesis 3:24. Three nights and days gawd was, sew called inn the grave (the room of tempting temptations and satanic strategies and the demon's demonologies) but rose (already done) from those grave(ly thoughts) and conquered death.....and stays with us twenty four hours a night and day providing the vibe and doesn't care for the jive..... Just look at the local prices versus the corporate prices and just think, who would purchase the one versus the other? Oh death, where is thy sting is what mocks humans/the demons with inn with...... sHe allsew laughs and says, "why gsus', why, did you forsake me"? Gawd never leaves us but we leave the godly sense that always hath heavenly results. Sense that always owns change. Now here a coin rattle. Well: Thank you and mercies aGAIN for the sweat, blood and tears gawd allows us two shade inn...... God's uniquely fashioned footprints and love monger is more creative than the created, humans, the earFlings Songs of Solomon 8:6-7 + 26 Escape from the cruel ones withinn/others Ecclesiastes 7:16-18 Balance•s; The yin two the yangs and the Yang two the Yins PRO verbs and Pro verb (AGES) 22:14 Between gawd and the individual•s
@@kevinandrewmoore9752 thank you, yes pricing is always a hard decision. I always think, “What would I pay?” and that’s part of how I decide how to set prices. I think the prices for veggies in the stores are too high, but their Seattle to Wrangell shipping costs keep going up. I only have to pay shipping costs on tools and the tiny packs of seeds that I buy 😊🌾
Your garden looks so tidy compared to mine!
I don't normally show the areas where the plants are growing wild and the weeds are taking over, like in the potato patch where it's out of control 😬 I try and keep the main garden tidy so that it's easier to harvest. So far I've been able to mostly keep on top of it 😜🤪
@@kathivy I get that haha. I try to not let people see my onion patch which at this point should be called the thistle patch.
@@greatgreennorth 😄👍
Ahhhhh, Mr Deer at the end is so Wrangell looking! I wish the lil babies at the beginning were closer, but what the heck, they made a showing :) Ye Gawds! The garden is just bursting with all sorts of beautiful veggies! Can't believe those pea vines. Leaning tower of pea vines as was mentioned LOL! What's noticeable to me right now is the large variety of things you have growing -- thinking of dill and peas and garlic along with the staples -- lettuce, orich, baby chard. I didn't see the zucchini -- are they still doing their thing? And the little pansies -- OMG they were so beautiful. I loved the little shout out to those who comment and to me, yur MOM. Always much love and excitement to see what's up in the Ivy Patch Garden :)
Love You 😘 I was thinking of you at the end and how you've been with me from the very start when I had just a little patch of dirt and frozen shoulder, and how you've supported all of us in our endeavors. This is the best garden that I've ever grown, and I'm happy that the peas survived and even the dill is doing good. The zucchini plants are growing little zucchinis that don't seem to get very big and then some of them rot 😬 I think that they would like it if there was more sun. Can't wait to see you Nonner Nut Noodle 🌈 ❤️ 🧸🧦
HA! Leaning tower of Peas! Also, excellent move with the twist ties :) YES to first leeks and good sales and resilient fireweed and deer friends!! I always enjoy your videos--thank you for making them!
Hi Trina 💛 I finally got the twist ties after all these years of telling myself that I needed them; they really are much better than fiddling with rubber bands. Your comments always make me smile 🌿🤗🌱
Thanks for the carrots! Been looking forward to them and they’re worth the wait. What variety are they? So sweet and crisp
Sweet 🥕😃👍 The carrots are Yaya variety. They're my favorite of the different varieties that I've tried.
Good job Katherine, good luck with the cilantro i've never been able to avoid the bolting
Thanks DT! Yeah, I don't have much hope for the cilantro, but I thought it couldn't hurt to try 😊🌿
Please be seeded. Hi Mom...!
I bunched the carrots while I was seeded 🥕😃👍 Mom is the best 💛
@@wayneessar7489 Hi Back!
I love watching your videos, one thing I noticed is you are so precise on everything and your produce when you're ready to sell looks perfect! I do farmers markets and I have never seen anyone's produce look so good and presents so well. I strive to have everything looked as good as yours. I do sell a very high volume of things so achieving your perfection is pretty unattainable to me. I'll keep watching as long as you're making videos
Thank You! I would actually like to be less finicky and work more quickly harvesting and processing the produce, and even reduce the level of garden documentation that I do, so that I have more time to do other projects that I want to get done. High volume without perfection is great! I'm hoping to get more efficient at what I do 🤪🥕
There they are, at 13:15....wonderful dear Deer! Haha, they make me so happy!
They ran off before I could get a good picture of them - silly dear deers 🤗

@@cesarfernandez96 they must have followed the main channel through the mud flats to the entrance of the Stikine and then stayed in the main river which is wide enough all the way up to Telegraph. They definitely didn’t take those paddle boats up the skinny side creeks like Alpine. It’s hard enough getting up that creek in a small skiff!
@kathivy That is interesting, thank you!
Hello, curious to know, what kind of skiff is that?
@@jdeluisa it’s the typical aluminum jet skiff that people here build for going up the Stikine River. It was built by Tyler & Chuck at Jenkins Welding.
@@kathivy Awesome! thank you
I see why someone got ten bags of your peas! They’re delicious tight out of the bag, eating them like chips, very munchible. I’m getting more next week for sure. Excited about the new high tunnel, taking it to the next level. And it finally stopped raining 🎉🎉
I've been loving this dry weather! Gonna try and get a lot done today because I see we're going to get a little more moisture on Tuesday, hopefully not a downpour. Yeah, those peas are so good. I should have a lot more peas soon once the ones in that second bed start to plump up 😊🫛
Love your peas! Oh I just love all your produce! It looks so healthy!
Thanks! The garden is really popping right now and I can hardly keep up 🤪
I'll trade you a day of rain for a day of our 105 degree weather!! Seriously gardening in the rain is a challenge; you did so well!!
I think I'll keep the miserable rain and forgo the even more miserable 105 degree temperatures! That is just too hot 🥵 I hope that you guys are able to keep all your plants alive through the heat wave ☀️
Oh my gosh! So much produce! Gorgeous garden this year, Kath. Lotso garlic scapes for your own use. That will be nice. Too bad there was a low turn out of buyers, but I'm sure you're right that the cold wet weather had a lot to do with it. CARROTS!!!!! Beautiful! And your peas! Geeze, I could just go on and on. So, you're in the thick of it now. I can't wait for when you have both your high tunnel done and your cool storage in your basement. That will make such a tremendous difference, I'm sure. Getting them set up, however, will be a chore (and a headache, I'll bet) and I know you know that, but it'll be worth going through the process. Hopefully, both projects will go fairly smoothly. Okay, keep on keepin' on. Luf you. Mom
I snapped off the woody part of the garlic scapes and we are able to use the rest in our pasta sauce. I think I'll use our food processor that I rarely ever pull out in order to get them all chopped up for the freezer. The garden is doing really nicely. I'm feeling a bit like I'm one step behind everything that I need to do, but I'm managing. Yeah, it's going to be a chore to get the tunnel up and cold storage completed, but it will be so much better when I have them set up. Luf You 🤗💛🌱
Unruly peas can test your patience.
Yes! Their hollow stems are so brittle and when they flop over it's hard not to damage them while training back up the trellis. I hope that most of them survive!
Well, on the upside, Soggy Harvest is a decent band name ;) Sorry it was such a rainy week to work in! You have so many peas! That's amazing! I just bought a salad mix that had pea greens in it -- theoretically more protein. And delicious. The carrots look great!!! Hope the new week goes a bit more easily.
We have a forecast for a few dry patches this week, so hopefully it will be an easier harvest this time. I do love pea greens in a salad! Someday if I'm more organized, I would love to add some more interesting bits to my salad mix. I'm super excited about the carrots. I've got a few crusty carrots that I bought a few weeks ago that I'm going to throw in the composting bin and only eat fresh carrots from the garden now!
You have a beautiful garden keep on trucking 🚚
Thank You! It was nice to have a dry day at the end and get some areas tidied up 🌱🤪👍
There early...it's those dear Deer at 4:38 !
Ha Ha little guy was poking head up to watch me drive by. So funny!
Potato makes me so tired
@@pauletteispassingiton943 I love the potato as long as it’s not the only thing that I’m allowed to eat for a week!
Hahahahahah! You look like you've hit the wall at the end there! Sorry for laughing. It must have been a very hard week. I love that you've got such a nice variety of veggies this year! That must be really nice. Wow! Wonder what went on to knock those posts down! That's very unusual even though they're "janky" as you say. Hope that's not a regular thing in the future. Luf the lil dear deers. Hope you got some nice rest sweet pea. And enough rain and then some sun. ❤
I was pretty done done done by Friday evening 😄 Relieved that everything went pretty well in the end. Yeah, I'm loving the new stuff in the garden including the dill and having sugar snap peas again. I'm looking forward to harvesting my first zucchini 😃 It really looked like a deer came barreling toward the garden running away from something (sometimes the neighborhood dogs will chase them) and didn't see the fence and ran right into it. I saw deer prints in the sand. If the purpose was to get into the garden then something would have been eaten, but nothing was touched. I hope that it was an isolated incident. I've been resting all day, and it's been really nice. Luf You Nonner 🤗💛
wow looks like it was a super tiring week. Hopefully you get a chance to rest. Happy you got the rain you need, hoping it will be usefully spliced with sun, too :) Yay for peas and foxglove!! And thanks again for twin faun sightings <3
I was tired and cranky this last week 😬 I lazed around all day today and hopefully I'll be more energetic this coming week. Man, we have a forecast for rain all week long. I might be wearing my scuba suit to harvest this time. I was super happy to finally be able to put peas into our salads and fresh basil for pasta and pizza. It's been heavenly!
Love your outfits. Foxgloves are my favorite flowers.
Thanks, I really need some new shirts without holes! Foxgloves are probably my favorite flowers too along with sunflowers when they're huge and loaded with seeds 🌻😊💛
13:15 I always smile whenever I see those dear Deer! Thankyou...!
Thankfully they've been showing up at least once per week. They always make me smile too!
It's a bumpy ride up into the lake
@@seakadventurer1330 it looks like it! It makes me nervous just thinking about it. I imagine it would be cool to bring a canoe up the trail and paddle around in the lake.
@@kathivy packraft! Yes as long as it's calm. Was pretty windy they day I was there.
@@seakadventurer1330 that’s a good idea, thanks 😃👍
What a beautiful garden! Lucky Wrangell to have such a healthy resource. Another week of excellent work!
@@clarethompson2815 thank you! Garden is busting at the seams with new veggies starting to be ready to eat 😋
That gorgeous CHARD! Lucky people who get that at your sale. Everything really looks super duper wunnerful! I'm so jealous of your zucchini! I would get little ones and then because the watering was so hard to manage they would wither. Sad. Those lil deer are adorable. Best garden EVER!
@@nuggetji this is my healthiest chard bed (so far). The insect netting will hopefully help. I hope that the zucchini keep growing properly despite living in the greenhouse walkway 😄 The little dear deers visited me again today and it lifted my spirits 🤗 Luf You 😊💛
Happy fourth of July!! Man, those chard are just glowing -- gorgeous. I'm liking the look of your breton-stripe hat liner. 50% pirate + 50% 1890s Parisian glamour. Huge amount of work this week, per usual. Hope you got to take some time off to party, too :)
@@trinathompson822 I like your analysis of my hat fashion 😂 We went up the river camping at end of weekend, which was awesome 😊🛶
You should offer merchandise. Unique millinery too. Shirts emblazoned with Toads eat my Slugs! Chard must be confused about how folks talk to it, some call it Swiss, others call it Baby, does it like being called Baby?
Yes! I should sell Toads Eat My Slugs! t-shirts 😄 So funny, the chard probably does feel patronized when I call it baby, but it might be more confused if I call it Swiss chard since it's growing in my garden in the U.S. 😂
@@kathivy 🥰🥰🥰
Never was a big fan of spinach 🤷♂️🙂
I like spinach in a salad, but it can be finicky to grow 😜🌱🌱🌱
It's those dear "Deer" at 19:13...!
The dearest little dears were helping me weed 🤗💛
