Edible Garden Newsletter, August 2019 is now available. In this issue, we focus on attraction pollinators and other beneficial insects to our garden. We start with a tour of the Fletcher Wildlife Garden, located in the Central Experimental Farm in Ottawa right next to the Arboretum. Another gardener talks about building a simple and easy water feature in her vegetable garden that attracts birds, bees, butterflies and frogs and toads to name a few. Many people run if they see a Hornets nest but they are another important pollinator and protector from many of the invasive insects that target our gardens. Finally, we continue our Introducing Soil series with an article on Soil Profile. Frequently, we are asked "When can I harvest my vegetables?" We have included a link to our
August 2014 Newsletter that describes when your crops are ready and how best to preserve your abundant harvest.
