Hello Garden Season!
It’s a little pathetic this year, to be honest. I don’t have a to. Of extra energy of time to spare so this year, the focus has been to just get ANYthing in the ground. I don’t have zucchini or spinach seeds leftover, and my thyme and Rosemary didn’t come back this year, so I’ll hopefully add as we go along, but for now, here’s our start. I put a 🌱 by the ones we started from seeds.
Tomatoes, 🌱 peppers (in greenhouse, still, it’s too cold! ), 🌱 marigolds, 🌱 rainbow carrots, celery, 🌱 peas, 🌱cucumbers, 🌱 green beans, and 🌱 basil.
The chickens destroyed our strawberries and ate ALL of the asparagus. I finally put a little fence around the garden this year. Our next home will have a big fence and a gate.
I didn’t plant onions or potatoes this year. Keeping it simple, manageable, and not very exciting. But hopefully I’ll have enough tomatoes and peppers for salsa and the carrots and celery and red peppers will go into a zillion quarts of tomato soup for my freezer. We just ate the last batch that I made in the fall and I am SO sad to be out!
I also need to try to prune these raspberries, but haven’t a clue what I am doing. Wish us luck, there 🤣 the chickens keep snacking on the leaves so I doubt this will be a good year for raspberries.
I can’t wait until the day we can triple our garden space and plant rows and rows of corn and sunflowers and 3 colors of peppers and not overcrowd our tomatoes.
