First day of Gardening!

Today the weather is delightful! Last night we heard FROGs chirpping away at the creek, this is a good sign that its time  to start prepping the gardens.  Today we are going to rake the yard and choose the place for the first raised bed.  This bed will hold Tomatoes and bell peppers. It will be surrounded by flowers which will include marigolds to incorporate some natural pest control as well as encourage bees and other polinators to visit our garden. We will also be choosing where to put our raspberry bushes we plan to put in this year. 3 should be good for a start.  These will be surrounded by flowers as well and given trellises to climb instead of being left to their own devices.  We will post photos as they are taken so you can enjoy our work with us.

This year we will be using rabbit manure in our beds as a natural fertilizer. We will also be composting. First photos to come soon!



Things are turning green!
