The Garden Plot: Starting packets of tomato seed for August
Now that summer’s first harvest of tomato is almost ready, a couple of packets of tomato seed can be planted to provide plants for late summer tomatoes for the garden to set out in August. Great tomato varieties for late summer gardens are Rutgers, Marglobe, Better Boy, Celebrity and Mountain Pride. Seeds sown now will be ready to set out in the garden early in August and produce a harvest in late September all the way until frost and provide green tomatoes to store before frost.
Trail of the Month: Carter Falls - Powerhouse Loop Trail
Difficulty Level: Easy/Moderate (can be strenuous for some in reaching the falls) A favorite among hikers in and outside of the Elkin, this trail features one of the area’s most picturesque waterfalls, an opportunity to view a variety of wildlife and is predominantly shaded. The trail combo follows this cascading section of Big Elkin Creek before its confluence with Grassy Creek. Total, the trails create a loop that is about 1 mile. There’s an option to tack on a moderate/strenuous spur trail that may involve the use of a rope cable for some to navigate the steep slope down to the creek. With care, there is a tremendous reward at the bottom: a sandy, partly-shaded bank at the base of Carter Falls.
