We got the garden started this weekend! We finally disturbed our unloved compost pile and gave it a real mixing. We prepped the containers and found worms in most of them--a good sign of healthy soil. We planted 3-4 types of lettuce, spinach, kale, bok choy, peas (sugar snap and English), carrots, radishes, and brussel sprouts. Then we covered them with temporary netting so our adorable cat doesn't use the containers as his potty! Hooray for all (but the cat)!
We really love the idea of a garden and getting it going. Then the very hot summer months come and we really love the idea of our air conditioning and do just enough out in the garden so it almost survives. Almost. Here's to cooler summers!

Way to go mixing the soil. I've always loved earthworms. I can't wait to find a home with a nice yard so I can have a big garden and fruit trees.
Here's to yummy gardens! We need to get together. It's been too long!
