We can choose from junk filled products that make our taste buds tingle, products that are non GMO certified, products that are USDA Certified organic and just about everything else in between.

Something about spring makes me want to grow things. I don’t know if it’s the siren-smell of coming-to-life dirt, or what it is.

There are some inexpensive ones you can purchase that work great, but we didn’t buy one. *If you have a […]
Springtime!
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.With spring just around the corner, it’s time to start thinking about the garden.
