After three Saturdays of work, our garden is finally planted. The garden was rather neglected when we got it, so we spent the first Saturday removing all the weeds, organic matter, and trash. We spent the next Saturday building a fence around our plot to keep the vegetables in our garden and intruders out. The third Saturday we built up the beds, tilled the soil by hand, and planted. We planted tomato, pepper, cucumber, and eggplant plants as well as seeds for lettuce, spinach, carrots, summer squash, zucchini, peas, butternut squash, and marigolds. With some good weather and beginner's luck we hope to have an abundant harvest this summer.

Looks great! I know Melissa wishes we could have a garden here. Some day!
ReplyDeleteHey guys, looking good! Stay proactive with the weeds. Interestingly enough, I am tilling our garden under this weekend as it is too hot to grow anything in the summer in South Florida. Can't wait to see the next pictures.
