The Garden


We decided to go with raised beds this year. Our soil is pretty terrible. Pure, nearly saturated clay. I used timbers milled on site, from the woodlot.We got a good deal on bagged compost from the guy that I bought gravel from. So, were starting small, and testing out the waters this year. So far we have
Tomatoes (big beef, and Cherry)
Peppers (green, and banana)
Lettuce mesclun, butter head
summer squash
zucchini
cucumbers
Broccoli

Peas
Potatoes (grown in old tires)
Celery
nasturtium
garlic
green onion
spinach
and a few others.
Shelley is the real gardener. I take care of the potatoes, but that's about it. I'll do a separate post on them later.
