Getting ready for gardening




It has been a busy week with appointments and working at school. The weather has been either wet or windy. Today is no exception as it rained last night, and it is chilly today. The biggest accomplishment of the week is the raised beds. Matt had those done and delivered on Thursday. We also received a truck load of loam, and Gary and Matt are planning for a trailer load of compost next week. We did succeed in hanging one tomato plant with the topsy-turvy container. We will see how  that grows before we decide to do more. The plants are growing fast. The daffodils are in bloom, as you can see. Gary planted squash, cucumbers, and pumpkins  that have now germinated. Space is at a premium  in the kitchen, and the place smells like a greenhouse.
