summer delight
Time off in the last few weeks has focused around converting the back lawn into 5 new no-dig garden beds, including one each for the girls. Lot of work, lot of satisfaction.
Updated: plantings include lettuce, boysenberries, peas, beans, pumpkin, tomato, celery, flowers, corn, peppers, onions, red onions, basil, chives, carrots, radish, potatoes (any day)

We have just discovered this wonderful joy for ourselves. I can’t believe how beautiful and relaxing gardening (especially for Veggies) can be. What are you and the family growing Steve?

Wow! Your garden soil looks lovely,dark and nutritious. I love the satisfaction of knowing that what I’m eating I have grown myself, fed and nurtured, and without additives, sprays or hastened ripening. What angle have you raised the beds to? Is that in preference to prevailing rain or to catch optimum sunshine. Wow, that is really innovative.
