OrganicGardener.com, welcome to our world

Big news on the second-career front!  A promising new website called OrganicGardener.com has hired me to write short but meaty articles for them, and the operative word here is "hired".  We online writers get awfully frustrated by all the requests to republish our work FOR FREE, which is still lots better than all the crawlers that steal our work outright, so it’s a breath of fresh air to hear from business people willing and able to look for quality and then PAY FOR IT!  (I know, very old-school, but a formula that seems to still work.)

Organic Gardener’s plan is to post new articles by yours truly once or twice a week, and here are my first two:

Susan: Great article on clover. One of the questions on the radio show, which is promoting organic principles, is how to get rid of clover! Can you imagine? It is difficult to change the minds of those who love a ‘perfect’, if totally subsidized by synthetic chemicals, lawn. I say, just mow it and learn to live with diversity! LOL

Hey Susa,

Congrats on the writing gig! Oh those bees…would that they bee in my lawn! I see very few honeybees around the clover and I don’t use pesticides…

New reader. Are there any pointers on how to best seed and get clover established. Thanks.

Yarddawg, I don’t know where you are but I have seen reliable sources recommend planting clover in the spring, and that’s worked for me.
