Starting in June 1st my co-worker and I will start a gardening at the local pool in town.
I have tomatoes, peppers, breen beans, and pumpkins. Growing them from seed, so the kids are very involved. It’s nice to share with friends. Planning on a cutting garden as well.
Planted potatoes, garlic and tomatoes this year. Am trying salad type greens, basil and strawberries in hanging baskets this year, and have added raspberry plants tothe garden. Blackberries grow wild at the edge of our land(Unsprayed). I do have a small herb garden, and trade for things I am unable to grow. I am fighting raccoons , deer and rabbits to get any salad, and they have eaten all of my onions!
Got a plot at the community garden and tilled the soil. It’s raining today, probably tomorrow, too. When it’s dry, we’ll plant tomatoes, peppers, onions, carrots, radishes…we’re even going to try cantelope.
