Tuesday 13th August

Today, the moon transitions from the constellation of Libra to the constellation of Scorpio, shifting us from the element of air to the element of water. This transition brings an intensity that always offers the opportunity for transformation. While in the garden, it’s an ideal time to harvest salads. If cared for and gently harvested, they will continue to provide for many months. Some salad crops may begin to bolt, often resulting in a trace of bitterness in flavor. These can be fed to chickens or allowed to develop seeds, which you can harvest and use next year.
