It's planted! I was only able to allow a week and a half for the lasagna layers to settle. No time to decompose or anything. It's June 12 after all... can't wait forever, summer would be gone. I planted more tomatoes, cabbage, spinach, green beans, parsley, collards and a few other things. Also, under the hay marked by a drip line is my row of potatoes. The potatoes were planted last week and they haven't shown their leaves yet, but I peeked under the hay and they are growing! As part of our UGLY Yellow Barn "Remodel" we filled the flat tire trailer with layers of manure, hay, soil, peat, etc.. and planted pumpkins, and other squash and sunflowers.
The barn is looking good. My husband had planned to put wooden siding on it, but I went ahead and started painting it because I knew 1) it would cost $400 to side the barn and we could use that money elsewhere, 2) he doesn't have time to put siding on the barn. He was shocked as he drove down the driveway and saw the barn. He LIKED it. He said, "Why didn't we do this a long time ago? and just think how much money we saved!" I did spend $8 per gallon on the barn paint. So far I have spent $16. We are not done. One thing leads to another... it takes time and energy.
I did not photograph the whole garden as I don't want you to see that the raspberry patch is still a mess!
