One of my gardening friends who lives in the country happened to mention how much she dreads encountering a snake. The next day, I read a tidbit about repelling animals...for snakes, ring your garden with sisal rope. Snakes won't crawl across it.
My favorite Farmers Market plant supplier and I were discussing uses for winter savory. "Herb Companion" had a whole article (with recipes) about winter savory. The following week I took the magazine to market day.
My friend, Janet, loves her Harry Lauder walking stick. I'll send her the information on trimming leaves to enhance the curling branches.
Most of my fellow gardeners would like the tip on repelling deer..spritz a scented bathroom spray on boards and place the boards every 10 to 15 feet around the garden.
Here's a really good hint I plan to make use of tomorrow...use needle nosed pliers to pull weeds growing between sidewalk sections and in cracks.
