Blueberry

Smid en håndfuld blåbær fra haven i din smoothie. Blåbær, hindbær, brombær og jordbær gør sig godt i flydende form. Brug dem friske i sæsonen, og frys en del af høsten ned - så kan du drikke bær af egen avl året rundt.Hvis du vil dyrke blåbær, skal du være opmærksom på, at blåbusken er en surbundsplante, der trives bedst i spagnum eller lignende, hvor pH-værdien ikke er så høj. Du kan sagtens dyrke blåbær i baljer eller store krukker.Læs også: Havearbejde - det skal du nå, inden august bliver til september

5. Open a Bug Hotel The concept is as simple as hanging a bird house, except bug hotels resemble collections of items such as hollow bamboo canes and seedpods that aim to mimic habitats like tree cavities that are increasingly rare in urban and suburban environments. The little holes and bug-size crevices are designed to attract insects, such as solitary native bees, that look for such spaces to rest for the night. Mia Mortensen Photography You can purchase kits for DIY bug hotels or build your own. (Just be sure to include some type of roof or cover to keep the gathered materials dry.) Family members of all ages can help collect materials to use, such as dried seedpods, twigs, small pine cones and bark. Older kids and teens can help with building the frame for the hotel. Everyone can learn or be reminded of the vital role beneficial insects play in ecosystems and the challenges they face.
