The Garden is In
For roughly the last fifteen years, my family has put in a garden. For a while, it slowly got smaller, but in the past few years, we have expanded it to its largest size. Putting in a garden is a lot of hard work, let me tell you. But having a tiller is a big help. It chews up the dirt, making is nice and fluffy. It makes planting things a lot easier and good aeration benefits the plants.
In the last several years, we’ve never been able to get the garden complete in one day. Well, we managed to accomplish that this year. We also got our fence up (to keep out rabbits and other critters). To give you an idea of how big the garden is, we used three 50′ rolls of fencing to go around the perimeter. It’ll produce a lot of tasty veggies… peppers, corn, tomatoes, carrots, onions, pumpkins, squash, radishes, and broccoli.
Now if it would only rain! The soil here is bone dry right now.
Sounds nice. If only there were pictures… š
Haha. If only I had a digital camera.
Heh. I have 1.3 Megapixel that my brother gave to me after he was done with it š
