A Month On


Above is this morning, compared to:
At least the wheelbarrow moved!


Potatoes to the left, garlic in the middle, peppers under caps.
It used to look like this:


Turnips.

Tomatoes, left and middle.

Raspberries in the wind.
A month ago:
Grapes.  Sunflowers in the foreground must go.

Compost heap.
Horseradish.  Yum.

First echinacia and hyssop.

Celendula
Borage
Cilantro

Sage

Thyme

It's already hot for the peas.

Progress

March 25




April 14


Well, a lot of that green is weeds, but there is progress there!

For instance, the grape arbor, which you can barely see as wire arches.  As the grapes grow, it will be more visible.


March garlic.

April garlic.

And today's biggest news:

Yesterday we got 4.5 inches of rain.  I measured, not in this wheelbarrow, but in a non-leaking metal garbage can used to hold weeds.  This wheelbarrow actually has holes in its bottom; stoppered by mulch today.
