Plants, animals, and people living in Coastal North Carolina are influenced by large, shallow bodies of water, called "Sounds." The Sound's daily influence can be a challenge or a gift. The word "sound" also means "in good condition; not damaged, injured, or diseased." Sound Harvest and Garden will try to reflect both those meanings, as I aim for sound vegetables, herbs, chickens, eggs, and ornamentals, all from my home by Core Sound.

Baptisia emerging
I wanted to show you how beautiful the new spring growth is on my baptisia (false indigo). It looks like big fat stalks of asparagus, doesn't it? This is one of my favorite flowers, and I can't wait for the flowers and leaves to open for the summer. This one is blue, I really want to add a yellow baptisia this year.
