Time for Planting

Posted on Sat 26 May 2007 at 07:54

in Gardening - Post Comment Way up here in the North Country, we've made it to Memorial week-end which is considered "safe" for planting! We've been hard at work the last few weeks getting our garden put in. We have 2 different raised bed gardens dug up. We had a LOT of digging to get them ready! We also put up 2 teepees to plant pole beans and morning glories around and grow up the sides of. We already put some peas around them. We also got an old tractor tire given to us through freecycle and dug under it and filled it all in with good dirt. We'll plant something in there. I'll take pics soon and send!

We had 2 loads of compost/black dirt dumped in with us. Thankfully the farmer could drive his tractor around the back of our yard and dump the dirt in the garden so we didn't have to haul it long distances!

We still have yet to get our fencing up. Just this morning around 6:30 I looked out our front window and a dear was standing by our driveway just waiting for our garden no doubt! She just calmly walked up the road our our little town without much concern. I'm hoping that if I plant lots of everything, some things may be eaten some, but there will still be some left for us! We will try to fence the one garden, but the other one and the teepee would be too hard to do.

SOOO we'll see how much we plant this week-end and pray things get going and we get to eat some of what we plant! If anyone has recently put garden info or pics on their blogs, put your blog site in my comments. I'd love to read about other people's gardens!
