St Jacobs Living

Moved from the big city to rural life near St. Jacobs, we’re growing our passion for gardening and enjoying the benefits of the local community and rural life.

Very excited to see our first garlic shoots. They are definitely one of my favourite signs that spring is here!

The virtual @kw_symphony Yuletide Spectacular did not disappoint!! It's always such an amazing event that has become part of our annual holiday tradition! We cant wait to get back to see them in person! #supportlocal #musicismedicine #holidayseason #covidsucks

Received my veggie seed order from @MI_Gardener this week! I'm particularly excited about the black beans, bunching onions, and blush peas. Cant wait to see how they all turn out! #imissgardeningalready

What a fun experience with the @thestudiokw this past weekend. It was fun, engaging, and VERY delicious!! If anyone is considering 'experience' gifts, consider a certificate for an online cooking class. #supportlocal #kwawesome #homecooking

Grilling up some @growinghopefarm sausages while enjoying a delicious @BlockThree Boy on a Buffalo Coffee Stout (w/ @EcoCafeStJacobs coffee). Doesn't get much better! #supportlocal #nofilterneeded

Inspired by our (pre-covid) trip to New Mexico, we grew our own green hatch and red paprika peppers (Sandia Seed Co.). Here's the first harvest of paprika for the dehydrator! #gardening #homegrown

Enjoying some @stemmlermeats ribs over a wood fire bbq, and absolutely loving the new @BlockThree Bathroom Etiquette wheat pale ale!

[St Jacobs Living @StJacobs_Living]

Small garden harvest of peas, beans, zucchini, tomatoes, and our first harvest of potatoes. Nothing beats a garden potato! #gardening

Starting the long weekend off right with some AMAZING wood fired pizza from @thosepizzaguys with a salad fresh from the garden! #supportlocal #stjacobs

Every year I like to try saving seeds from a new plant. This year, I’m trying to save radish seeds. So far, I’d say it’s looking pretty good! Now just have to be patient while it dries. #gardening

[St Jacobs Living @StJacobs_Living]

I love the surprise of harvesting garlic and root veggies! Pretty good haul this year. Wove it through some old lattice to dry in the shed. #gardening #garlic

[St Jacobs Living @StJacobs_Living]

Perfect day for some gardening with a cold beer from @BlockThree #StJacobs #gardening #supportlocal

[St Jacobs Living @StJacobs_Living]

Our first peppers are starting to make an appearance. #poblano #jalapeno

[St Jacobs Living @StJacobs_Living]

Direct sow lettuce are starting to look pretty great! #gardening

[St Jacobs Living @StJacobs_Living]

What an amazing seed library program @rwlibrary has!! Planted these Orca Bean beauties last weekend, along with some parsnip and rutabaga. #gardening #veggiegarden

[St Jacobs Living @StJacobs_Living]

Took some advice from an awesome @MI_Gardener video to try some very early season radishes. Our first French Breakfast Radishes are looking amazing!

[St Jacobs Living @StJacobs_Living]

What a great way to kick off the 2020 growing season, by planting fruit trees (a few weeks ago)!
