I'm about a week away from harvesting my onions and potatoes.
And we are just under two weeks away from our next P*e Dee Homemakers meeting!
Can hardly wait to see everyone and learn about water conservation and rainwater harvesting for our gardens! 🥰
How's your garden going and what are you harvesting right now?

Raindrops may keep fallin’, but we’re turning every drop into a blessing this month. 💧🌿

You’re invited to join us Sunday, June 28 from 2:30–4:30 PM at the Hartsville Library for our Water Conservation for Home Gardens Workshop & Garden Produce Swap! We’ll learn from Geraldine Cuypers with Clemson Extension about using rain barrels, saving water in the garden, and making the most of what God provides — even the rainy days.

Bring a little produce to swap if you’d like, or just come learn and enjoy the fellowship. Everyone is welcome.

Let’s grow together, rain or shine! 🌱💛

Hey, it's Kacee! 👋

My flowers are so pretty in my garden. They're working hard to fulfill the role of drawing pollinators to my vegetables! 🐝

I want to see yours! Show me pictures of what you have in your garden space that's blooming right now. 🌻

I just spent some time tending my garden. It is getting so lush from all the rain! I even harvested some stuff.
Is anything ready in your garden? Show me! 👀👇

🌼 P*e Dee Homemakers Met Today — And It Was a Sweet One!

Our May meeting was full of learning, laughter, and the kind of community that fills your cup.

Brittney King, our Commercial Horticulture Extension Agent, was unable to join us for our meeting. Fortunately, Bo happily stepped in to pinch hit and walked us through practical, ways to identify and manage common garden pests. From diatomaceous earth to safe treatment options like companion planting, everyone left with something they can put to work in their own beds and backyards.

And of course… the Baked Goods Swap did not disappoint. Homemade breads, cookies, pastries, and treats of every kind filled the table — a beautiful reminder of how generous and talented our Homemakers are.

Most of all, thank you to everyone who showed up, shared, learned, and encouraged one another. This group shines because of the hearts in the room. ❤️

We’re grateful for another month of growing together — in skill, in friendship, and in purpose.

Well *eDeeHomemakers, we’ve had a little change of plans for Sunday — and God’s timing is always perfect, even when it surprises us. 💛

Cristal received some wonderful news and needs to make an unexpected trip, so I’ll be calling in a bit of backup to help me keep our meeting running smoothly.

Bo and Audrey— our favorite local celebrity P*e Dee Homemakers members— have agreed to step in and help me keep our meeting running smoothly! 🌟
If you haven’t made plans to join us yet, go ahead and bring your autograph book so you can add theirs to your collection. 🙃

We’ll also be hosting our Baked Goods Swap, so bring some individually wrapped treats to share. 🍪🍰🎂🧁
Or just come ready to learn — Clemson Extension’s Brittney King will be teaching us practical, effective ways to handle those unwanted garden visitors. 🐞🌿

Can’t wait to see everyone. Grateful for this community and the way the Lord weaves everything together for good. 🤍

P*e Dee Homemakers meet this Sunday, and we’ve got a truly useful session lined up. 😁
We’re welcoming Brittney King, our Clemson Extension Horticulture Agent, for a class about garden pest control — what’s showing up in our Hartsville gardens right now, how to identify damage, and what is recommended for safe, effective treatment. 🚫🐛🐞

We’re also hosting our Baked Goods Swap, so bring a favorite treat to share or trade. Cookies, breads, bars, muffins — anything homemade is perfect. 🎂🧁🍰🍪

Come learn, taste, and spend time with a community that grows together. See you Sunday! ❤️
