A Breath of
Fresh Air!
By Mike Parry
I’ve mentioned before how
I’m amazed at how young entrepreneurs make plans, set
goals and jump in body and
soul to build what they believe
will be a great future for their
families and communities they
live and work in. For the last 10
to 12 years I’ve noticed a couple that are doing just that.
John & Teri Pribble is just that
couple. I stopped to talk with
John and asked if he’d tell me
their story. They moved to
Waseca with the first of two
children in 2000 when Teri took
a job at the Historical Society.
Four years later they set out to
begin TMP Contracting & Management. I asked John where
the TMP came from.
“TMP
Time, Money & Patience,” said
John with a smile, “Really it’s
Teri’s business. The ‘T’ is for Teri,
‘M’ is Maureen, her middle
name and ‘P’ is our last name. I
didn’t think as her employee I
did get my name in there too.”

“It started with one dump truck,
then two, then five and now
Teri has 7 trucks running mainly
in a 50 mile radius,” he said. So
I asked John is that when the
second venture started? “I was
repairing Teri’s trucks and
started thinking that there is a
need for a business that works
on big trucks, large equipment
like back hoes, dozers, farm
equipment. We had this vision
and called in one of the best
mechanics, Jim Doherty and
together as partners started
Minnesota Truck & Repair and
so far it’s been working well,”
he said. “We wanted to also
work on smaller vehicles as well
so we hired Mark LaMont to
come on board,” John stated,
“Mark is a great mechanic too

MDA
Announces
Request for
Proposals for
Farm to School
Grants
Submission deadline is
November 2, 2016
The Minnesota Department of
Agriculture (MDA) has announced a Request for Proposals for the 2017 AGRI Farm to
School Grant Program. The
MDA anticipates awarding up
to $500,000 in competitive
grants to increase sales of locally grown and raised foods to
K-12 institutions and child care
providers.
Two categories of grants will
be considered:
1. Grants for the purchase of
equipment and/or physical improvements that will allow
schools to purchase, prepare,
and serve more locally grown
and raised food. The grant will
cover 50% of the total project
cost up to a maximum award
of $50,000. Recipients must
contribute the remaining 50%
of the total project cost as a
cash contribution.
2. Grants for the cost of creating plans that identify specific
equipment, tools, training or
policies that a school or district
needs in order to purchase
more locally grown or raised
food. The grant will cover up to
75% of the total project cost up
to a maximum award of
$30,000. Recipients must contribute the remaining 25% of the
total project cost as a cash
contribution.
As part of this grant, the Center for Prevention at Blue Cross
and Blue Shield of Minnesota
(Blue Cross) is providing up to
$125,000 to help schools and
child care providers meet the
requirement for matching
funds.

MDA
Announces
Request for
Proposals for
Farm to School
Grants
(continued from page 4)
This funding is part of Blue
Cross’ long-term commitment
to improve the health of all
Minnesotans by tackling the
leading root causes of preventable disease: tobacco use,
lack of physical activity, and
unhealthy eating.
The MDA and Blue Cross are
committed to making healthy
choices available to all Minnesotans, and past Farm to
School grant rounds have offset the costs of equipment and
kitchen upgrades for schools
statewide. More than half of
Minnesota’s student population
has participated in the program.
All applications must be received no later than 4:00 p.m.
on November 2, 2016. The complete Request for Proposal and
instructions for submission are

4 Things
Retirees Can
Learn About
Retirement from
Peyton Manning
Provided By
Shawn Pomeroy
Certified Plan Consultant™
After 18 years in the National
Football League, the Denver
Broncos’ star quarterback, Peyton Manning, is calling it quits
after a very successful career.
We wish him well and hope
that he’s made the preparations needed to enjoy a long,
comfortable retirement. If he
has, he’ll be in the minority. Research shows that an estimated 60% of retired NFL
players go broke within five
years of retirement; nearly 16%
declare bankruptcy.
Fortunately, there’s a lot that
Peyton can do to avoid that
fate. While most of us won’t be
retiring at 39, retirees still have
a lot of the same worries as pro
athletes. Here’s the advice we
would give Peyton if he were

our client and friend.
Dear Peyton,
Congratulations on your retirement! You’ve had an amazing career and I’m glad you
got to go out on a high note.
I’m excited to see what you
have planned next. I also want
to give you some advice as
you make the transition to retirement. I hope you find it
helpful.
1. Don’t Make Any Sudden
Decisions
Take some time to process
the transition away from a highoctane career and think about
what you want out of retirement. Stop and smell the roses
for a while and don’t make any
major decisions about your future until you feel comfortable
with your new phase of life.
Many people who come from
high-pressure, competitive jobs
feel the urge to do something,
anything when they retire. You
might be tempted to fill the
void by rushing into a new business, partnership, or buying expensive toys or real estate.
Don’t, just yet.
2. Don’t Jump Into Businesses
or Investments You Don’t
Understand
As a guy with money, you’re
going to be surrounded by
people pushing every kind of
business, product, and investment there is. Don’t get taken
in by the hype; think very carefully before you put your life
savings into something you
don’t completely understand,
especially if the person asking is
a friend or relative. Caring
about someone doesn’t mean
you should put your future at
risk. You’ve worked hard to get
where you are; don’t threaten
it by taking too many risks now.
Always remember, anything
that sounds too good to be

true usually is.
3. Work With A Team
of Professionals
As a professional athlete,
you’re used to working with the
best in your business. Expect
the same from your financial
team. Don’t just go with the
guy you went to school with,
the one your buddy works with,
or the one offering you the
moon. Talk to a lot of professionals and look for ones who
want to get to know you and
your dreams before making
suggestions, answer your questions honestly, admit to uncertainty, and don’t make a lot of
promises. Pick the professionals
that are willing to ask you the
hard questions and tell you the
difficult truths you may not
want to hear. Then listen to
them. Let your team be your
barrier against hype, promises,
information overload, and anyone looking for a handout. Turn
to them when you have ideas
or questions, or need to talk out
a decision.
4. Have A Strategy
for Retirement
You’ve got a long retirement
ahead of you, one that’s likely
to last 40 years or more. Though
you’ve amassed a fortune
most of us would envy, it’s not
going to be enough if you
don’t think ahead and make
prudent choices. You should
be thinking about the lifestyle
you can afford in retirement
and making sure your money
lasts as long as you need it.
Have a strategy for good and
bad markets and remember
that long-term investors have to
cultivate patience. Don’t forget about healthcare!
How Can We Help?
Even if you’re not Peyton
Manning, most of the advice
above still applies. Retirement is
a challenging transition and it
pays to get it right. We work
closely with our clients long before and after retirement to understand their dreams and help
create personalized retirement
strategies that take them
where they want to go. If you,
or someone you know, have
questions about retirement,
give us a call, 507-835-9111.

A Caregiver’s
Day
Kelly Boeddeker
Executive Director
Waseca Area
Caregiver Services
My name is Vivian, I care for
my husband Herb. I’m using fictional names but my experience as a caregiver is true.
About 7 years ago Herb was diagnosed with Dementia. He is
now 89 and I am 88. We have
lived in our house for a life time

and want to stay at home.
My day starts early. Sometimes at 3:00 AM, Herb gets up
and eats a snack I then get up
to put him back to bed, he’s
usually sleeping at the table.
Between 3:30-5:00- most often
he stays in bed. Around 5:00 he
starts walking the hallways.
Luckily he’s never wandered
outside. Sometimes, at 5:00 I’ll
come out to the kitchen because of the noise, to find Herb
fully dressed and with the food
for breakfast on the table, slapping his cane. I coax him back
to bed and he will stay there
until around 7:00 AM. If he is
dressed then it’s a process for
cleaning him up in the morning. He can no longer put
toothpaste on his toothbrush
and I help with the rest of his
personal hygiene. (You get the
picture). We eat breakfast between 7:00- 9:00, I read the
paper and catch the news on
T.V. Herb sits at the kitchen
table while I clear it. I quickly
make the bed and get in the
shower.
Today the homehealth aide comes at 9:00-
12:00, she is a God sent. She
plans the meals and prepares
lunch. She helps Herb exercise
and he is still able to do some
walking. Listening to music is
one of Herb’s favorite things to
do- old country western songs.
It’s not to my taste but if he likes
it, I go along. Sometimes the
home health aide reads to
Herb but he loses interest
quickly. She also will wash
clothes and plan the supper
meal. Our daughter stops by 3
to 4 times a week and goes to
the grocery store for us.
On Wednesday Herb goes to
“Some Time Away” from 10-2
run by Waseca Area Caregiver
Services. He says it’s “Good
Time” and I think it’s important
that he gets companionship
other than me. We both look
forward to Wednesday, he’s
happy to go and I look forward
to a 4 hour break. I get to do
something I normally wouldn’t
get a chance to do- work in
the garden, go to the bank
etc.
When the home health aide is
here, I can water my flowers,
feed the birds- be outside. I
sometimes sweep and wash
clothes. At lunch, I cut up
Herbs food into bit size pieces.
Herb has a good appetite.
After lunch we both take naps.
4:00 maybe our daughter will
show up. 5:00 we watch the
news on T.V. and I then fix supper. From 6:00 to 9:30, we usually watch TV together around
10:00 I help Herb get to bed
and lay out his clothes for tomorrow.
We get out for family gatherings and attend church faithfully. I have attended a
caregiver support group and I
try to do some things for myself.
For now, it is working. With the
help of family, friends, a home
health aide and “Some Time
Away”. I’m doing OK.
If you are a caregiver, take
advantage of the services that
are there for you and your
loved one. You both will be
better for it.

Training
for the Triathlon
at Snap Fitness
The Waseca Sprint Triathlon is
quickly approaching on August
6, 2016. It’s not too late to sign
up to swim, bike and run in
beautiful Waseca. This year’s
course has been altered to accommodate athletes of all levels especially the novice.
Doing a triathlon seems like a
daunting endeavor. Snap Fitness is here to help you accomplish the triathlon and your
other fitness goals. Snap Fitness will be hosting a free informational event on “Tips and
Tricks of Swimming, Biking and
Running a Triathlon” led by seasoned triathlete Randy Brendall
On Monday June 27th, 2016 at
6pm in the Snap group training
room. The event is free and
open to everyone to RSVP
please call 507-835-0043, email
waseca@snapfitness.com or
stop in to sign-up.
Triathlon Training Basics
In a typical triathlon, the average participant spends around
a fifth of the race swimming,
half of the race cycling, and
about thirty percent of the
race running. Your training
should closely match this distribution. Try to do roughly equal
numbers of swim, bike and run
workouts, but bike workouts
should be longer than your runs
and your runs should be longer
than your swim. For example,
let’s say you work out six times
in a week. In this week you
should swim twice, bike twice
and run twice. However, your
longest bike ride may be one
hour, while your swims last thirty
minutes and your runs forty minutes. Begin your training with an
amount that is appropriate to
your current level of fitness and
gradually increase the workload as you become more fit. If
you are a typical adult who is
out of shape but not overweight, elderly or suffer from a
debilitating medical condition,
you will need approximately
twelve weeks to prepare for a
sprint triathlon. You may also
ask a Snap personal trainer
about creating a workout plan
that is designed specifically for
your body and capabilities.
Injuries may happen while
you are training for the
triathlon, however there are
steps you can take to minimize
both the severity and frequency of these injuries. One
way to prevent overuse injuries
is to reverse muscle imbalances
which are the cause of most injuries. Through repetitive motions, triathletes often develop
particular imbalances that are
associated with many common injuries. To correct these
imbalances, you need to
stretch muscles that tend to
become shortened through
training and strengthen muscles that tend to become
weakened. Try to frequently
stretch your calves, hamstrings,
hip flexors, lower back, neck
and chest and regularly exercise your hips, butt, abdomen,
upper back and shoulders. A
second way to prevent injury is
to practice good technique.

EXCEPTIONAL RESULTS
(continued from page 10)
Swimmers who do not practice
the recommended arm cycle
technique tend to develop
swimmer’s shoulder. Cyclists
who position their seat too high
or too low tend to develop low
back and knee problems. Runners whose feet over-pronate
tend to develop plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis and runner’s knee. A third factor
associated with injuries is a sudden and substantial increase in
training volume. Increase your
training volume gradually
week-to-week, but don’t increase it every single week. Tissues in your body need time to
adapt to the training stimuli
they experience. Additionally,
your body needs time to adapt
to the stress of each individual
workout, which is the reason
why you need to perform a
thorough warm-up each time
you swim, bike and run. In particular, hamstring injuries are
known to result from failure to
properly warm up. Move at a
pace that works for you, and
don’t overdo it.

“First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers,
intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings
and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and
quiet life, godly and dignified in every way.” (1 Timothy 2:1-2)
The Fourth of July, a day set aside to
remember that our country once
rejected tyranny by adopting the
Declaration of Independence in 1776,
is also a day on which “we the people”
celebrate and renew our dedication to
our beloved nation by attending
patriotic events, enjoying recreation
or simply gathering with friends
and family.
Christians, even though they know that
heaven is their real home, love their
country and support it according to their
God given abilities. As citizens of two
kingdoms (Christ’s and man’s), we
believe in obedience to both our God and
our government. As a normal part of
our Christian faith and life, therefore,
we support, honor and defend both our
church and country. As regularly as we
pray the petition in the Lord’s Prayer
“Give us this day our daily bread”, we
pray for good government and peace.
Every sincere Christian, then, is also a
sincere patriot.
While true that no country is without its
problems, it is also true that no country
is any better than its people. That is, a
country’s prosperity is directly related
to the support of its citizens and how
those citizens honor God.
As we celebrate the Fourth of July, our
country is calling for loyalty. We will
give it gladly by rededicating ourselves
to Christ as our Savior and spreading
His Gospel, which can bring peace
instead of war, freedom instead of
bondage, life instead of death.
Loyalty to Christ is the highest form of
loyalty to our country. God bless His
Gospel and us so that through us
He might bless our native land.

Before
Mudjacking?
By Mike Parry
We’ve all heard stories about
the things farmers can fix or reinvent to make better. I remember Bumps Brown telling
Kathy and I a story about how
some of the area farmers who
worked at Brown Printing used
knowledge they gained farming to help the printing machines run better. I guess this
story is another in a collection.
Grant Koch and his wife
moved to southern Minnesota
in their early 20’s but still maintains a farming operation in
northern Iowa. We bumped
into Prime Poly Solutions, LLC in
Waseca the other day and
had a visit with Grant. I asked
him to tell me about his business and how he got started.
“After having experience with
traditional mudjacking, I became highly interested in raising and leveling concrete with
polyurethane material and attended a two-day training
course in Manitowoc, Wisconsin
at Hydraulic Mud Pumps, Inc.
(HMI). One of the primary reasons for my interest in raising settled concrete was the cost
savings.
Generally,
polyurethane concrete raising
is less than half the cost of tearing out the old concrete and
replacing with new. There is no
waiting for the concrete to
cure, when I leave you can use
the concrete,” Grant said.
Prime Poly Solutions, LLC is certified to work in both Minnesota
and Iowa and Grant enjoys
working one-on-one with each
client. That includes initial conversations, job site estimates
and timely completion of the
job. “We are a start-up company and we are extremely
hard-working,
dependable,
honest and respect our clients,”
Grant went on to say, “From my
experience, raising concrete
slabs that are poured over very
unstable or unsuitable fill is beneficial because polyurethane
weighs 3-4 pounds per cubic
foot compared to 100-150
pounds per cubic foot of tradi-

mud;
therefore,
polyurethane material is much
less likely to overburden unstable soil. Additionally, the end
results are more appealing because of a much smaller injection hole. Polyurethane utilizes a
hole that is only 5/8” or smaller
compared to mudjacking holes
that run between 1” and 2”.
The polyurethane foam that we
use is hydrophobic and is a
green product, utilizing 30 to 60
percent recycled material.”

ination, and helps you feel better!
Try the different foods! It’s
worth at least one shot. I think
people with the most food freedom are the ones who are ok
with trying a food or a dish —
without a perfectionist’s mentality that you can never
choose a food you don’t end
up liking or a dish you don’t
enjoy. Find out! And move on if
it doesn’t work for you. No pressure. No problem. Just the freedom to explore.
There are a lot of health benefits in it for you!
In fact, one of the main reasons to explore and eat a wide
variety of foods is the nutritional
support this gives your body.
When you eat the exact same
things each day, you’re getting
the same amount of concentrated nutrients from those
foods.
It
doesn’t
matter
how
“healthy” the foods are individually, this approach could lead
to nutrient overload from one
food, and deprivation of key
nutrients that you would get
from other foods.
Even taking a good multivitamin won’t give you the same
variation benefits that your
body will receive from a wide
variety of foods.
There’s something about how
Find Food
Freedom By
Exploring the
Delivery of Food!
By Darin Olien
A key pillar of finding food
freedom — and life-long health
— is variety. It is absolutely inspiring to me to see the diversity or food staples in the
countries I travel too around
the world. Variety gives your
body an explosion of nutrientdense foods!
When you give your body
amazing food it naturally
detoxes itself, changes your
body’s gut flora, allows for elim-

nutrients work together in their
natural state in fresh, whole
that can never be duplicated
in a lab. So no supplement will
ever be quite the same as giving your body the chance to
be powered by the broadest,
fullest array of vitamins and
minerals possible.
And no
pharmaceutical drug will heal
your body the same way fresh,
whole food will. Most drugs
(baring some of the most medically necessary ones) just mask
the problem that was started
from nutritional deficiencies,
which largely create all chronic
disease. You start healing when
you add back all the missing
nutrients!
This “explorer’s approach”
also frees up your taste buds to
enjoy new and exciting flavors
instead of getting locked up
with the same dishes over and
over and over again. No
thanks! Nature gave us too
many options to stay stuck that
way.
It’s time to start “painting”
with different colors: Think
about how your food looks together on the plate. Is everything beige? Boring – both in
flavors and nutritionally!
What colors can you put on
your plate? The phrase “Eat the
rainbow” is full of wisdom —
and vitamins!
Focus on mixing up flavors
and ingredients: The same
exact foods will taste completely different when you mix
up the combinations and add
in new seasonings and spices.
When you combine sweet, sour
and salty tastes, you’ll feel
more satiated. If you always
have spinach in your salads,
chose kale or red lettuce instead.
You can also add variety by
combining textures. A plate full
of soft foods has no textural variety! Combine crunchy foods
with softer foods for satisfying
mixtures. For example, add
crunchy raw vegetables with
soft rice or one tablespoon of
crunchy nuts on top of soft
baked squash, roasted vegetables, or baked sweet potatoes.
When you are willing to create the habit of food exploration, you will holistically
support your body’s health and
your taste buds will never be
bored.

Grow a Farmer
Fund: Investing
in Food, Farmers
and Accessible
Financing
By Tim Penny
“Our survival relies on the ability to reintegrate investing and
philanthropy,” said Woody
Tasch at the second annual
Slow Money Minnesota gathering earlier this month. Southern
Minnesota Initiative Foundation
(SMIF) co-sponsored this meeting, organized by our partner
Renewing the Countryside.
Tasch is the founder of Slow
Money, an advocacy and investment group drawing from
the slow food movement that is
interested in bringing money
back down to earth.
At the Slow Money Minnesota
meeting on May 3, Renewing
the Countryside and SMIF announced a new fund: Grow a
Farmer Fund. In its beginning
stages, this will be a donationbased fund that will raise funds
from individuals, restaurants,
and others interested in supporting a stronger local food
economy in southern Minnesota. SMIF and its partners
are aiming to raise $100,000 by
September 1 to launch this
fund. It will be used to give
lower interest loans to farmers
such as John Mesko, who
shared how a $350 investment
in a three-point hitch helped
him move his hog farm business
from “just getting by” to a profit
generating enterprise. The
lower interest loans will recycle
into a revolving loan fund to be
an “evergreen fund” that can
help others down the road.
Given SMIF’s 30-year history of
small-scale, “seed” investments
for a sustainable region and
the Foundation’s shorter-term
interest in supporting a local
food economy, the principles
of Slow Money align closely
with our own philanthropic efforts. For example, Slow Money
Principle Six quotes Paul Newman: “I just happen to think
that in life we need to be a little
like the farmer who puts back
into the soil what he takes out.”
Anytime I talk with a potential
donor to the Foundation,
whether an individual, business
owner, or City/County official, I
remind them that for every dollar they put into the Foundation, an average of $10 is
re-invested back into southern
Minnesota to support children,
businesses, and communities.
The purpose and principles of
Slow Money are gaining increased attention. The Grow a
Farmer Fund is timely given the
SEC’s recent approval of Title IV
of Obama’s 2012 JOBS (Jumpstart Our Business Startups) Act.
This provision allows unaccredited investors – essentially, ordi-
22 Good News Magazine • June/July 2016
nary citizens rather than only
high-worth individuals – to invest a certain percentage of
their own equity in start-up businesses. CNBC called this “the
biggest change to hit start-up
investing in years.” Grow a
Farmer Fund, while not an equity fund, does allow anyone
interested in supporting a
stronger local foods system to
contribute, whether by money
or time.
In southern Minnesota, we
have a long history of agriculture. Our 20-county region
houses a diversity of farmers,
from commodity crop growers
to small-scale farmers sowing
everything from hazelnuts to
hops. While both are economically important to our region,
operationally, they are economically quite different. Insurance, loans, input costs, and
distribution are all handled in
unique ways. The Grow a
Farmer Fund is targeted at
smaller-scale farmers trying innovative approaches that
have a harder time accessing
traditional funds, don’t quality
for subsidies, or lack typical col-
CC
lateral.
The Grow a Farmer Fund is yet
another outcome of the FEAST
Local Foods Advisory Network,
a group of many partners focused on supporting local
foods makers, growers and producers in our region. The Feast!
Local Foods Marketplace, held
annually at the Mayo Civic
Center, is another initiative of
this network. Additionally, SMIF
just announced a second Local
Foods Peer council to provide
small food businesses a chance
to learn from each other to support their businesses.
Farming continues to be an
economic driver in southern
Minnesota. As older farmers
start to transition their farms to
the next generation, the Grow
a Farmer Fund is an innovative
solution to allow a wider segment of those looking to care
for the land an opportunity to
plant roots and for a wider audience to support this mission.

and questions. You can reach

Say Hello to Cliff Tesch
This month of June, 2016, brings us to introduce
another of our residents, Cliff Tesch.
Cliff was born Clifford W. Tesch in Mankato,
Minnesota, March of 1949. He grew up on a farm in
Waldorf, MN with one brother and two sisters. He went
to Waldorf School in town, then Pemberton School for
a few years before going back to Waldorf to finish out
his schooling. After graduating, Cliff farmed with his
dad, Herald. He later worked for Crystal Valley Co-op
in Waldorf, and for about five years he ran his own gas
station, Cliff’s Deep Rock. Cliff went back to Crystal
Valley Co-op for his remaining working years.
In his leisure time, Cliff was a volunteer at the
Waldorf Fire Department. He also liked to fish, hang
out with his friends, play cards and do word puzzles.
In 2015 Cliff moved to Colony Court due to health
reasons. He says that he likes not having to make his
own meals, do dishes, clean, or do any laundry.
We’re glad to be able to do those things for you
Cliff!

Late Start,
Big Finish in
the Garden
By Melinda Myers
There is still time to create a
beautiful and productive garden this summer, whether starting
from
scratch
or
rejuvenating an existing garden.
Many people are starting
fresh by elevating their garden
beds to overcome landscape
challenges, create new beds
or simply make harvesting,
planting and tending the garden easier.
You can build your own raised
bed or purchase one of the kits
available at garden centers,
garden catalogues and online.
Or repurpose bricks, cinder
blocks or heat- treated pallets
into an elevated planting bed.
Once your raised bed is built,
start by preparing a healthy
foundation for your plants by filling it with a blended quality
topsoil and compost mix like
Hsu garden blend (hsugrowingsupply.com). The compost is
rich in beneficial microbes that
build soil health, while the topsoil provides a reservoir of nutrients and moisture for the plants
to grow and thrive.
Or rejuvenate an existing garden bed by amending the soil
prior to planting by adding several inches of leaf compost,
compost or peat moss to the
top 8 to 12 inches of soil.
Once the foundation is set,
ished harvesting the smaller
vegetables. Train cucumbers
and pole beans up a trellis.
You’ll save space and elevate
the fruit for fewer disease problems and easier picking.
Add a few herbs to the garden. They add flavor to your
meals as well as color, texture
and fragrance to the garden.
you are ready to plant. Tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, melons and squash need full sun
and love it warm. So planting
now that the air and soil are
warm will get them off to a
quick start. Interplant these
larger transplants with green
onions, beets and carrots. By
the time the larger plants are
filling in the space, you’ll be fin-

Basil, like tomatoes, is another
warm weather plant. Planting
too early means poor growth
and greater risk of disease. So
procrastination can sometimes
pay off. And a raised bed will
help contain vigorous growers
like oregano and mint.
Mix in a few flowers with the
edibles or give them a garden
of their own. Select plants
suited to the sunlight and your
maintenance
schedule.
Drought tolerant sun- loving
plants like lantana, zinnia and
celosia are more forgiving if you
tend to underwater. Self-cleaning annuals like calibrachoa,

angelonia, gaura and fan
flower (Scaevola) do not need
deadheading which translates
into less maintenance for you.
Then sit back and enjoy the
harvest and beauty your new
and improved gardens have
to offer.
Ask Melinda
I have an aloe plant that is
about 9 years old. It has gotten
so big that I would like to cut
pieces off and give them to
my friends. How do I do that?
Start (propagate) new plants
from a leaf or division. Remove
a leaf from the plant. Let the cut
end dry for a day or two. Then
bury the bottom inch or two of
the leaf in a well-drained potting
mix, vermiculite, perlite or sand.
Avoid over watering which can
lead to rot. Or slide the aloe
plant out of its container. Use a
sharp knife to divide the parent
plant (roots and all) from any
offsets (small plants) that have
formed. Repot the divisions in
containers an inch or two larger
than the remaining root system.
