So a while ago I got it in my head that I could just magically become a veggie gardener. We have been going back and forth on whether or not we want to build a new one in the backyard, or use the old garden area on the side of the house. Well, Good Friday is coming pretty quickly and a wise woman who was born on Hog Killin Day once told me to plant your garden on Good Friday. We finally decided to get to work on the old area and make some progress.
Sooo...we took this:
 |
| The poor thing is weathered and weeded. |
 |
| Icky weeds. |
And turned it into this:
 |
| But underneath it all...lots of earth worms and other critters |
 |
| Looking much better already! |
I read that earthworms and critters are a good sign that your soil is fertile. Let's hope so. If you have any tips or suggestions on what to plant, let us know!
You should have your soil tested that gives a breakdown of all the "good" in your dirt. Have you already seeded your vegies? Good luck, and happy farming!
