Fall Silobration 2022 - Southern Utah Style! Invitations were sent and party preparations made way for a one-of-a-kind event on Saturday the 8th at the Silo. As guests descended upon Veyo, Utah, it was evident that the festivities would become memorable. The band showed up at 4PM to fine tune their instruments and put in a little practice before playing for the crowd at 5PM.  A special ActiveRain member guest showed up bearing gifts. Brian England and I talked like we'd known each other forever. I gave him the grand tour of Nerdin Gardens, the Silo and the now famous, 1/2 bathroom.   Homemade Filipino food made fresh that day, was on the menu that included Adobo Chicken, Lumpia, Jasmine Rice, Chicken BBQ on a skewer, Pancit, Beef Stew and Leche Custard for dessert. Yu-um!  Dick Earl's E...

Backyard Gardening to Table Growing season is a yearly affair for us. As some of you know, we use all-natural methods to plant over 40 varieties of fruits and vegetables. We have enjoyed many dinners straight from garden to table! We are thankful that our garden has produced zucchini, bell peppers, lettuce, fresh basil, tomatoes, carrots, grapes, cabbage, asparagus, artichokes, cucumbers, basil, garlic chives, sage, oregano and more.  Hard work, follow up daily and careful diligence goes into cultivating while maintaining the garden and has much to do with continued success. Methods are similar to running a thriving business! To all gardeners out there who have tilled the soil, preparing it for growth, planted carefully and are now reaping the rewards of all your hard work, you deserve ...

You reap what you sow when gardening. Enjoying a satisfying, fulfilled life is much like a successful, growing season. Focusing on the implementation of tried & true processes, feeding and nurturing the soil under the plant material, developing good work habits daily from experience, allows you to harvest the rewards. Then plan to plant again for a most bountiful crop the following year. Peat, reap and repeat often! Happy Monday all, it is looking promising from here in southern Utah. Will be dropping off fresh fruits and vegetables from Nerdin Gardens to some lucky recipients and then meeting a repeat client to show homes.

Abducktive...er, I mean Abductive Reasoning. If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck, it is a duck. When something can be identified by some of it's characteristics, it is called Abductive Reasoning. This yellow squash is similar to the color of a duckling and also appears to have a beak. Of course, just because something looks very familiar, is it? Not necessarily. Trust but verify comes to mind! Happy Tuesday all!

Labor Day: Enjoying The Fruits Without much thought, we have always intentionally maintained a strong work ethic of getting up, dressing up and showing up, prepared. We do the same for the back yard garden by pulling weeds, encouraging growth.  Luck? I don't know anything about luck. I've never banked on it and I'm afraid of people who do. Luck to me is something else: Hard work — and realizing what is opportunity and what isn't. — Lucille Ball People often exclaim when visiting, how 'lucky' we are to have a beautifully maintained property. Rather than luck, it is careful planning and implementing consistent methods daily to ensure optimum results. It's a lot of work! Sloth, like rust, consumes faster than labor wears, while the key used is always bright. — Benjamin Franklin Everyone wa...

Nerdin Gardens: It's a grape day! Taking advantage of ripe grapevines in the back yard garden, means picking them before the birds and other creatures get more than a fair share. The kitchen countertops are overflowing with nature's candy! Grapes are found in clusters of 15 to 300 and can be: crimson black dark blue yellow green orange and pink  We grow green, seedless grapes and Muscadines from Georgia, that are deep purple, round, with two seeds and a sour skin. Grapes are in the berry family and can be eaten fresh, used in wine-making, in jam's, grape juices, jellies, grape seed extracts, vinegars or dried as raisins. Eating grapes may boost memory and brain health. Juicy orbs, suspended on deciduous vines, fruity clusters happy in their own skins, perfectly ripe for plucking! ~ Wand...

A Dog Wags It's Tail... It's National Dog Day and what better way to honor faithful companions than to spoil them! You can: Clip the leash and go for a long, leisurely walk Plan a trip to the dog park, where these four-legged friends can play and run free Drop him/her off for a much deserved pampering to be groomed and play with other pups all day long Or serve a favorite treat today, like a vanilla ice cream cone from Dairy Queen. Your dog will definitely give you a two-paws up! The reason a dog has so many friends is that he/she WAGS IT'S TAIL instead of it's TONGUE. Humans could definitely take a cue from these furry, excitable bundles of joy to live more fulfilling, happy lives themselves. Wiggle, wiggle! Waggle, waggle!

Nerdin Gardens: Hot stuff! Prior to picking peppers in Nerdin Gardens early morning, things started heating up and getting mucho spicy! I heard some of them say...  “It’s getting hot up in here!”  “Hey, there hot stuff!” “You’re steaming hot!”  “You warm my heart.” “You can ring my bell!” “I am mildly amused.”  “I’m just over here chillin‘.”  Realizing that I needed some corn. I asked the neighboring gardener, “Cayenne you help me, do you habanero two?” He said, “No poblano!” ~ Wanda Kubat-Nerdin in Nerdin Gardens

Nerdin Gardens: Early Pickings Vines are staked,Weeds are pulled,The ground is raked,While plants get sun-baked. Sunday mornings are meant for taking a relaxing stroll to the back yard garden, where all senses are awakened. From the sights, sounds and smells, to the touch and taste of ripened fruits and vegetables. Today, we will be making pico de gallo from fresh ingredients taken from the raised beds. We do enjoy early morning pickings in Nerdin Gardens and enjoy eating the results of our work and nature's blessings. Happy Sunday all!

A quantifiable frequency of vibrations... Sunrises and sunsets are a visible and quantifiable frequency of vibrations that lends to a strong sense of inner-awe connectedness. Several rainy days have given us some spectacular settings here in southern Utah.  We often sit on the covered patio of The Silo to ooh and ahhh over the lightening skittering across the skies, as the thunders booms in all directions. The end result is an amazing early morning light show like no other! From the very deepest of purples to neon pinks, to vibrant yellows to brilliant oranges, to glowing reds, what is your favorite power color? ~Wanda Kubat-Nerdin

Nerdin Gardens: Oh look, he's S-M-I-L-I-N-G! Reminiscing today about our Pot-bellied Pigs...Sometimes I wish that everything in the world was perfect like nature. Piglets quickly transform into walking, snorting, squealing little creatures. On their first day, they: Opened their eyes Were able to walk Jumped into the water dish to cool themselves Snuggled with siblings for comfort & a nap Knew exactly where their food was...Momma!  This little guy in the picture was ok with me holding him for a short bit, then started squealing for momma so I put him down. Miss Prissy was a wonderful momma to her babies and Bacon (dad) maintained his distance with a few grunts! At night, the babies slept between Bacon and Miss Prissy. We soon realized that we had prevent another set of newborns, so cont...

Nerdin Gardens: A Wee, Busy Honey Bee I see a wee, busy Honey bee,Drifting toward a flowering tree. While working at feeding the nest.'Twas warily pressed to take a rest, It strives to perform for the hive,So the swarm may all remain alive. ~ Wanda Kubat-Nerdin in Nerdin Gardens Even bees need to take an occasional break in order to gain momentum once again and perform. Very seldom, have I witnessed one completely still on a blooming plant until ready to fly, going about it's day. We are so very thankful for the work ethic of the honey bees because it they shirked their responsibilities and duties like some humans, our garden would suffer greatly. They indeed are a gardeners true friend!

Nerdin Gardens: Taking a Pea Just when I was getting ready to take a pea in the back yard garden, I was suddenly interrupted by an unexpected but welcome visitor!  Satisfaction comes from being able to pick fresh fruits and vegetables early mornings or later in the day when the temperatures start cooling, knowing they are organic as nature intended. #NerdinGardens2022 #MyPeasInAPod #BackYardGardenHumor

Iffin Winn of Nerdinshire A wee, lovely girl was born unto the royal Winn family of Nerdinshire. She was a quick learner, especially when it came to manners. The please’s and thank you’s came quickly and her curtsy was simply adorable! Iffin and the family attended many special engagements on behalf of the royal family throughout the year, such as christenings or weddings and more public events. Most often, she became the center of attention. Children of royal means were expected to follow a higher standard of attire than other young villagers. Her gowns were made of the finest crushed velvet in all the kingdom, though the tulle skirting underneath the dresses she wore, irritated the skin when she moved, causing a most painful rash.  IIffin became very sad, sitting still while all the o...

Southern Utah Adventure List: Veyo Pool & Crawdad Canyon Some friends were planning a trip to southern Utah from Las Vegas, Nevada to vacation with their daughter and three grandkids. They asked me for places of interest that were geared toward the younger set.  Remembering when our two boys were growing up, they enjoyed the Veyo Pool and Crawdad Canyon. What is more fun than playing in a spring-fed swimming hole and hunting for crawdads along the river bank?  There is also a campground, a grill and over 200 routes in the canyon for climbers to enjoy. It's a great way to unplug the kids from the digital world and get them out in the fresh air and exploring the great outdoors!  It's typically 12-15 degrees cooler in Crawdad Canyon than St. George, Utah during the summer months in the can...

Nerdin Gardens: MANtaining, MANaging and MANual Labor Every new growing season brings a great share of excitement in awe of nature's ways plus challenges to be met in the back yard garden. Warm temperatures, nutrient rich soil, adequate sunshine, weeding by hand and plentiful water creates an optimum growth environment.  My husband Michael has a green thumb. He enjoys MANtaining the plant material and possesses the ability to encourage favorable outcomes while also creating beautiful, relaxing spaces for everyone's enjoyment.  Nurturing a home garden is akin to MANaging a business.  All systems must be in place, a strong work ethic is required plus proper planning, trouble shooting with a strong foundation in gardening knowledge.  Consistency with follow through is ultra-important for f...

'Ole Glory Coast to Coast - Veyo, Utah We respectfully fly the U.S. flag every day of the year in front of our residence, spotlighting it at night. 'Ole Glory greets all, proudly waving to everyone that happens to be traveling up or down the road, daily.  My husband and I have military backgrounds and it is more than just a piece of colored cloth ran up a flagpole. It speaks for freedom and the: White signifies purity and innocence Red, hardiness & valour, and the Blue signifies vigilence, perseverence & justice   Many lives have been lost defending our country and those heroes deserve to be honored every single day. If everyone respected and valued those lives, what an amazing and veritable force the U.S. would become again. When attending Chamber of Commerce meetings, real estate even...

Happy Father's Day to All My Men! Ironing my dad's Army fatigues when he was still active military was the least I could do for a decorated Vietnam War Veteran. Thank you for loving my mom and taking on 7 kids.

Thank you for everything dad!​ Thank you My Honey for being a fantastic father to Sebastian and Spensyr, for always putting our family first in everything. Not only are you a respected retired Navy Veteran, you are also a Gulf War hero.

Nerdin Gardens: Hedging Inflation A food shortage may be inevitable if American farmer's are unable to grow crops because of contrived, inflated costs. Gardening and canning your own food is a viable option to fill in the meal gaps. My brother, who lives in Pittsburgh, went to the grocery store for a week's worth of supplies. There was absolutely no chicken in the displays. What about the baby formula shortage? This is outrageous! Wait, there's more... Many young people believe that food appears on store shelves via a magical unicorn delivery service... And then some city folk say that successful farming is simply putting a seed in the ground and watering it... Extremists want all beef products banned because burping cows are the #1 cause of ozone layer depletion... Pfffft to that, igno...
