Hi, I’m Ryan Cook!

I’ve started a veteran’s group called A Skill to Heal because I know that veterans need to have a mission every day with the help and support from friends and family to reach their ultimate goal of finding joy and peace while
facing a host of everyday challenges. As a veteran, I understand the things that can hinder us. Firstly, the cost of finding a hobby and the cost of a start-up when you do finally find a hobby. The second issue is the “gimmick” offers
from those people and businesses that try to target veterans as an easy mark. Well, rest assured this is NOT a gimmick. This is my way of giving back.

I’ve found that growing giant plants for food, fun, or competition creates an appealing brotherhood much like the military. Veterans are challenged by other veterans and other growers to be the best that they can be and
accomplish the end goal of growing great plants. One fantastic thing is that you can grow just about anywhere. You can grow indoors during the winter or in a greenhouse. You can grow in the summer in your backyard or on a
porch, patio, or balcony. Whatever your living situation, we can assure you that growing is possible. We have created a special You Tube channel called Heavenly Hills Homestead where you can learn all the growing techniques to
help you grow giant fruits and vegetables successfully just like I did! There can even be big rewards in it for the
successful grower.

So, please sign on and join our group, have fun, relax, learn and be totally amazed at the award winners you can grow when you put your all into it!

They used it to colorize faded lava rock and it looks great!

Eldo and Julie bought a house in mid-Tennessee and invited me to visit over the summer of ‘76. It was a sharp right off Hwy 70 outside of Nashville over a small bridge and then miles on a dirt road. It turned out that they had to run a water line up the side of a steep wooded hill so that this old fixer-upper would have water. I told Eldo that I was ready to work for Julie’s fried chicken dinner. He stopped to caution me that we both had to put on a pair of pantyhose before we ventured out on that overgrown hillside. After 3 hours of clambering up and down the hill and laying in the dirt, we finished the task. It’s when we went inside to change that I realized that the pantyhose acted as a barrier against those nasty ticks that dotted the outside of the leggings. That lesson has stayed with me all these years later. Each time I hear about the myriad of tick and mosquito-borne diseases that we have to deal with…Lyme disease, West Nile virus, EEE, I think of Eldo’s great pantyhose trick! Finally, I’ve designed something based on his clever solution that improves protection and helps us take back the woods!

It doesn’t always happen that a joyous customer makes contact to let you know that they’ve grown a world’s record squash using your Trident’s Pride liquid fish soil enhancer. But here is the living proof…squash soup anyone??

Did you know that the Queen’s gardener is using garlic spray on the roses? We didn’t! A guided tour with Alan Titchmarsh in The Queen’s Garden (ITV) was a rare treat and told the story. This show, the first of a two-part documentary, hid another surprise. We’ve always thought Prince Charles was the eco-warrior in the family, keen to abide by organic methods. But it turns out it’s the Queen who is most committed to pesticide-free gardening. She insists that no man-made chemicals are used to spray the roses for greenfly — instead, the bushes are doused in water steeped in garlic.

GarScentria Fogger

Just Scentsational is planning a 2020 introduction of an exciting new product designed to combat mosquitoes and ticks and the dangerous diseases that they spread.   Company spokesman Ed Brookmyer states, “with each passing season, we have noticed a significant increase in mosquito and tick activity and mosquito and tick borne diseases, hitting closer and closer to home with each passing year.  It is with some trepidation that we all leave our homes at the height of mosquito and tick season and with global warming the season is growing longer.  You never know what you might be exposing yourself to”. 

The growing outbreak of EEE and Lyme disease throughout the northeast has focused the attention of Just Scentsational on creating a consumer controlled solution to the problem.  As we all have seen,  in the past few years, an entire new industry has sprung up all over the US dedicated to treating outdoor areas against mosquitoes and ticks by “fogging” home landscapes using a handful of alternative natural botanical extracts which have shown themselves to be effective in repelling both mosquitoes and ticks.  Some companies are using essential oils while others are using garlic liquids.  Each competing company seems to have created its own blend by selecting only those essential oils that it feels are most effective while leaving out other essential oils which are equally effective but might not fit into their “cost structure”.  The one thing, however, that all of these companies have in common is the high monthly costs for treating the homeowner’s  grounds!   Our approach is different.  The introduction of the new GarScenrtial fogger has taken the high monthly cost of family protection away from the “professional” and put the full control and savings into the hands of the homeowner.  Now, for the first time, the homeowner is in control of their pocketbook and when and where to apply the unique GarScential blend. The Just Scentsational approach is to combine all of the effective botanical extracts into one liquid to maximize the efficacy without limiting the scope of the product. 

The Just Scentsational GarScentrial is a highly effective blend of concentrated essential oils including the popular and widely used garlic concentrate.  GarScentrial can be effectively used indoors or outdoors without causing issues.  It’s a broad spectrum solution that is designed for use anywhere.  There is no aquatic toxicity and no pyrethroid restrictions (each essential oil and the garlic liquid component is EPA FIFRA 25(b) exempt).   It’s wholly effective on larvae in standing water as well as disrupting the neurotransmitter function in adult mosquitoes.
