Planting peas and carrots in my Ohio garden and making creamy cucumber and fresh herb dressing
Welcome to GrowCookPreserve--I'm Kelly, and I grow in Ohio, Zone 6b. In this video, I prepare for the fall season by planting a variety of peas, soaking them overnight to aid germination. I also sow carrot seeds alongside the peas, using leaf mold as mulch to retain moisture and enrich the soil. Inside, I whip up a creamy dressing with cucumbers, tomato water, locally sourced cultured cream, and fresh herbs from the garden, creating a tangy and flavorful topping for a salad and crostini. Enjoy a productive day on the homestead with me as I complete these seasonal tasks and delicious recipes! Let me know in the comments--do you soak your pea seeds? 🔔 Subscribe for more gardening in SW Ohio Zone 6b, cooking, and beekeeping tips and tricks: 👍 Like this video if you found it helpful and share it with fellow gardening enthusiasts! 🌿 Epic Gardening affiliate link for Birdie's beds, seeds and supplies: shop.epicgardening.com/KELLYSCHRADIN
