Planting time!

I am making all of my new beds using ranch panels that are cut in half along their longest point (16ft) for the sides and the ends are ranch panel quarters. These seem to be the perfect size for my garden.

As you can see in the background, I have a few bags of leaves to chip up yet and have been a bit lazy about getting down to business. I hope to have them all chipped up before May planting comes around.



My cold frame is producing quite nicely as well - at least enough for a nice salad every other day. I replanted some of the cold frame a few weeks ago and there are hundreds of little lettuce plants coming in...I am excited to see the cold frame start paying for itself.



I guess I am just happy to be out in the garden getting my hands dirty again. It is nice to get away from the daily grind...

Back to the Garden...

Well, I gave in to my laziness and haven't blogged for a long time and yet here we are - a new year in the garden and time to start blogging again. Hopefully I can keep it up!

As you can see, I put the peas in a few weeks ago and am just waiting for them to pop up. I used leftover leaf mulch from last year to cover the planted areas. Hopefully it works a nice as it looks!


I planted Salsify and Parsnips in the middle of the pyramids...should be interesting.

Tomorrow I will take some good pics of my other beds...I have a large "cold crop" brewing and I am excited about how the garden is shaping up this year so far!
