  • Examining Garden Blogs As a Communication System
    International Journal of Communication 6 (2012), 2758–2779 1932–8036/20120005 Examining Garden Blogs as a Communication System HEIKE GRAF1 Södertörn University The blogosphere supports an interpersonal meaning production process by providing the space and opportunities for communication through the circulation and discussion of topics. Using systems theory, as developed by Niklas Luhmann, I explore how garden bloggers issue invitations to communicate by studying their selection process from all possible entries and images. I examine the selection criteria for posting an entry and especially look at Swedish and German garden blogs to study “ordinary” people’s relations in the blogosphere from the perspective of sharing opinions, impressions, and emotions about their garden environment. As a result, the selection criteria of novelty, values, identification, conflicts, visuality, and sociality are revealed. A communicative culture of approval, admiration, and respect, which promotes emotional ties and strengthens the feeling of common concerns in the blogosphere, is noticeably present. Keywords: Domestic blogs, communication, systems theory, gardening Blogging has been described as a publishing revolution that both private and public persons can use to disseminate information. By posting photos and comments, conveying stories, as well as linking to other websites, blogs, or to one’s own earlier entries, polymorphous relations are established in the blogosphere. This article examines garden blogs that fall under the category of topic-centered blogs; themes concerning gardens/gardening are expected and communicated through narratives, comments, and especially images. These blogs belong to the sphere of domestic blogs that are insufficiently researched, even though they are more common than political blogs (Lenhart & Fox, 2006).

  • Backyard Chickens: Crossing Your Road in Style January 2011
    January 2011 January Meeting Backyard Chickens: Crossing Your Road in Style Thursday, January 13th, 7:00 p.m. Aptos Grange Hall 2555 Mar Vista Drive We gardeners love fresh, local, seasonal produce, whether grown in our own gardens or by growers at our local farmers markets. Along with the growing popularity of vegetable gardens, there is another burgeoning trend: more and more people are determined to harvest home-grown eggs. This month our own Bill Patterson will lead a discussion focused on the chicken’s place in garden permaculture, benefiting families and becoming an integral part of a sustainable suburban lifestyle. Those of us who already raise chickens will join the forum. You may have questions that you hope will be answered at the meeting, such as: Why raise chickens? How do I get started? Where do I buy chicks? What breed is best? How do I build or buy a coop? Is chicken poop a good garden fertilizer? Well, these questions and others WILL be addressed, but Bill feels we must first answer the primary, age-old chicken question: Why did it cross the road? The audience will be invited to contribute answers. A prize will be awarded for the most surprising answer — one dozen pure fresh organic eggs from Bill’s cherished chickens. Bill cautions, “No foul jokes, please”. In order to help you prepare, he offers the following examples: What do you call a chicken crossing the road? Poultry in motion. Why did the chicken cross the road halfway? To 'lay it on the line'. Why did the rubber chicken cross the road? She wanted to stretch her legs.

  • Establishing Garden Beds
    Establishing Garden Beds Winters Heritage House Museum, Elizabethtown, PA www.ElizabethtownHistory.org In constructing your Garden Beds, planning will be a crucial step. Things to consider while planning: 1. You want an area of flat open ground that gets 6 or more hours of sun per day. 2. Beds should run east to west if possible to help maximize sun exposure. 3. Keeping the size of the beds only wide enough that you can reach the center of bed for maintenance without stepping into bed. (4’ is a nice size, but can be smaller or larger depending on your area) 4. Planning 16”-24” wide path(s) between beds can also ease in weeding and maintenance. 5. How much space do I need per person to feed myself & family? A Guideline is 1 4x4 area for salad greens and 1 4x4 for vegetables per person. 6. You can maximize growing space by going vertical; grow vining vegetables such as beans or cucumbers on trellises . 7. Placing the trellis on the North side of the garden helps maximize sun exposure. 8. You can make your own trellises from inexpensive materials such as electrical conduit or PVC pipe frame with string or rope strung between, you can recycle things around the house like, sides of an old crib, a section of fencing, or the metal framework of an old mattress. Let your imagination go and have fun with it. 9. Stakes put in the ground with string tied to them can help visualize your garden 5” area. They are also a helpful guide when you start to dig.
