Adorable, organic chew crew for landscape maintenance.(Or rent the flock if you do not live on Ag zoned property.) Instructions included. Avoid chemicals, save your trees and regain access and use of your property. Sheep are a delightful and effective alternative for vegetation control, especially in woodlands, steep slopes, or environmentally sensitive areas. These sweet young lambs can become easy care, family pets for years of service. Rather rent? I 5 years experience with prescribed grazing, including UGA sites. 30 years experience with sheep. Athens recently changed the livestock ordinance to allow prescribed grazing service in all areas of the county, though ownership is limited to Ag zoned property. Please call with questions or see my website: www.shadybrooksheep.wordpress.com

Young plants of tasty arugula.

"Oakleaf" is just one of the many forms of this Mediterranean salad green which is loved by many who call it salad or garden rocket, rucola, rucoli, rugula, colewort, eruca, roquette and arugula. It is part of the Brassicaceae family and has all the standard features of the group with its own twist. What do you do with arugula? Glad you asked. . . there's the traditional salad (alone or with other greens), saute it in oil and garlic, or let your imagination run wild: add arugula to pastas, pizza, grains, root crops, sandwiches, wraps and soups, juice, sauce, vichyssoise or blend it into a delicious spicy pesto. And keep in mind that there is a Roman legend that arugula is an aphrodisiac - so enjoy!

Full-sized pods with immature beans delivered just as my grandma liked them. The name "Blue Lake" comes from a bean grown early in the 1900s for canning in the Blue Lake District near Ukiah, California. In the 1930s it was developed in Oregon for the commercial canning industry nationwide. By the early 1980´s, Blue Lake beans replaced the old fashioned Kentucky bean as the standard variety sold in US super markets.
