So much fun in my new studio latley. I have been growing Mill Valley Indigo for a while now to contribute to the fibersheds
Indigo compost heap in Nicassio where Rowland Ricketts came and helped us build the compost floor to hold it. My son jullian loves to water the plants while he waits for Mama to finnish her work. My studio is in a green house so its kind of begging for it.
I was gifted a bunch of organic and fabulous edables from a Williams Sonoma event so Jullian also created a vertical little edable garden on my sliding door, How cool is that!!!! I know I have to transplant soon but was hopeing to build little planter inserts in the door. Does any body have tips for such a garden? Love some imput. I have all kinds of hierloom lettus, corn, strawberrys, basil, rosmary, oragano, tomatos and lots of other stuff.
I also was blessed to meet a young man Peter from Guatemala. He was making shoes there and he is not only an outstanding human but he is very talented in sewing and we have a wonderful time together and of coarse Jullian loves him. Watch out cause we will be making sandles together.

Mollie, check out the vertical garden that was installed at the surf shop, few yards away from you. I am not sure where they got the pouches but I am sure you can find them online. It is so smart. I also saw vertical gardens made of crates, pretty clever. If you need the link let me know, I can find it for you.
I might come by on Wednesday, will you be there? I can't believe I haven't see your place yet.
Thanks Laura,
Yes, I need to figure something out. I will go visit them. I am usually there until time to pick up kids. come by....
OMG, Juju looks so BIG! And that place looks incredible!
Molly, how wonderful you are growing Indigo in the garden! I've been growing some too, the Japanese variety, and I'm so excited to make a big fermentation vat this summer. Maybe you want to join me? And let's process some nettles together. I think I'm going to gather a bunch for real this weekend. I'll let you know. Also, I've just started my own blogspot, called The Indigo Vat, :), with writing and projects and adventures. Come see!
