Martha Creedon commented on Gary Gill's group 'Pickling and Kimchi Club'
Love the photos! My husband is the primary fermenter in our house - and he always puts the cabbage directly into quart jars, burps them for a week or so and then puts them into the basement. They seem to last pretty well, but I'm thinking it would b…

Recipe Exchange
This is so silly. I just realized we have this KITCHEN Gardeners International group and we have no category with the things we DO with this food, how we cook! So here we are with a Recipe Exchange.

Martha Creedon replied to Michelle W. Flannery's discussion 'What Is Your Native American Heritage?' in the group Native American Heritage Group
I was so proud and excited to learn of even the tiniest of connections that I have to Native American (Penobscot) heritage. My grandfather, Joseph Reed Burgess, was the son of Horatio Bradford Burgess of Abington (b. 5/21/1856) and Georgiana (Lovejo…

Hi Martha Creedon, welcome to KGI. I'm sure you'll find the site interesting, we're a pretty friendly bunch. You'll find all manner of discussions in the forum (follow the link in the top navigation bar) and there is also a notes section where I can put stuff that may be of interest to members. At the moment there are one or two "how to" articles and a whole range of recipes. (follow the notes link)
If there is anything I can do then please, just leave a message on my page

KG Day - Help us choose a date!

Kitchen Garden Day has traditionally been celebrated at the end of August which is a great time for gardens in temperate, northern climates but not a great time for many other gardeners around the world (e.g. August is winter in the southern hemisphere, monsoon season in India, too hot for many gardeners in southern states, etc.).

We're exploring the possibility of changing the date to the spring and would like your input. Please answer our poll here.

Tomatoes
I think this might need it's own category, don't you? Tomatoes are one of the most popular things to grow and we've been placing them in all kinds of groups, but the fact is we almost all grow them, and they have specific needs.

Hi, I'm starting to put together a few guidlines on using the discussion forum on here.
