Thanks for the info! We’re going to Hawaii or the first time this year and weren’t sure of the laws re: bringing back pineapple. I will look for the sugarloaf variety, too, as the acid is usually what stops me from eating too much Cheers!

We started growing our own food in Stouffville for our family. Now we have a bit more than we need and sell free-range eggs and grass fed beef all year round. Seasonally also other things.

Please check out our website. Thanks.

Hi Danielle,

Thanks for the information. We’ve never seen one like it in our yard since then but we’ll keep looking.

I was looking for the type of caterpillar/butterfly I had on my front door the past few weeks and I came across your image (and question) above. Your photo matched what I was looking for. I finally found the name, and thought I would come back here and let you know what it is!

It was a Nymphalis antiopa, or Mourning Cloak, butterfly.

Hi Vanna,

We just use composted sheep and cow manure. Nothing fancy here. I can’t say we get the biggest plants but they do grow.

Very informative article.

This is kind of off-topic, but what is your favorite soil conditioning fertilizer? I’ve tried Bio-Magic on my veggie garden, but I don’t like the results. Anyone have suggestions?
