Garden update

The garden is finally finished! We spent all of Saturday and Sunday working on it.  Our to-do list was:

1. Dig up the grass under the two raised beds and fill with new dirt and plants
2. Weed and clean up the strawberry patch
3. Clean up squash patch and plant squash
4. Cat proof the area around the squash
5. Plant new blueberry and eggplant in a bigger pot
6. Put shadecloth and bug proof screen on greenhouse vent


The two 8' raised beds were the most work. My back still hurts from all the shoveling. It took four trips to Home depot to get all the soil we needed to fill the beds. This one holds sweet corn, cherry tomatos, basil and cilantro.

The one below holds bell peppers, jalapenos, sweet peppers and heirloom tomatos.

The strawberry patch is moving along great and full of little green berries.

I am shocked at how quickly the plants in the greenhouse are growing. We just planted these from sprount two weeks ago! The arugula, kale and other lettuces we are already eating.

The broccoli and brussle sprouts have doubled in size since I last posted pictures.

I am so happy we are done with all the hard work. Now I can kick back and enjoy watching my garden grow. :)
