The hornworms tried it. They munched while I was gone. But I’m not giving up. I’ve got new tomato plants ready to go and this garden isn’t done. Setbacks happen, but we replant, we rebuild, we keep growing. Stay tuned. The comeback is already sprouting. #GardenWithFekisha #ChaoticGardenWithFeki

Not every day in the garden is harvest day. 🌱 Today I’m untangling my yardlong beans, pulling them away from the grass, and gently retraining the vines back onto the trellis so they can keep climbing where they belong. 💚 A little maintenance now helps keep the plants healthier, improves airflow,

Did you know? 🌱 Yardlong beans (also called asparagus beans) are actually cowpea cousins, which means they’re closely related to black-eyed peas! Most people harvest them while they’re young and tender, but if you let the pods fully mature and dry on the vine, you can shell the seeds and cook

Showing a few things I’m letting go of, celebrating what’s thriving. Yardlong beans are doing their thing, marigolds are holding it down too. Learning, letting go, and letting the garden lead. #GardenWithFekisha #ChaoticGardenWithFekisha #LouisianaZone9a #PrincessGardenGlow

Burnt toast? Don’t toss it. Just grab a butter knife, give it a light scrape, and save your breakfast. 🍞 I know a lot of people already know this, but this one’s for those who don’t. Quick fix, less waste! #KitchenHacks #ToastRescue #NoFoodWaste #EverydayTips Disclaimer: This c

A small harvest, but a big smile. Showing what the garden gave today, now time to get to work. #GardenWithFekisha #ChaoticGardenWithFekisha #LouisianaZone9a #GardenGlow

Went out to check on my okra patch and found the one cantaloupe that decided to join the party… but something beat me to it! The joys of sharing the garden with uninvited guests. Nature always keeps things interesting! #GardenWithFekisha #ChaoticGardenWithFekisha #LouisianaZone9a #GardenH

8pm in the garden with the buzzin’ crew— bees, wasps, and me. Cowpea hustle after work. #GardenWithFekisha #ChaoticGardenWithFekisha #LouisianaZone9a #PrincessGardenGlow

I’m in this for the love, not the trends. If I was chasing what’s popular, I’d have quit when things got tough. The losses, the lessons, they’ve grown me. So, if you’re stepping into gardening or farming, do it for the love—not for picture-perfect moments or what looks good online. AI can’t fake pa

When your corn dreams turn to corn drama! 🌽 Y’all, the garden threw me this plot twist—falling out over this kernel-less situation! #GardenWithFekisha #ChaoticGardenWithFekisha #LouisianaZone9a #PrincessGardenGlow

Clearing out this new patch of garden to give it purpose! By the end of the week, I’ll be sowing cowpeas right here—so more cowpeas are on the way! #GardenWithFekisha #ChaoticGardenWithFekisha #LouisianaZone9a #PrincessGardenGlow

It was too hot earlier, then came the rain. I kept going in and out because of the thunderstorms and lightning. When the weather finally eased up, I cut the grass and did some weed eating—then it got dark! So I grabbed my headlamp and picked as many cowpeas as I could before the lightning started a
