I’m grateful for my patient and loving wife. But I just finished lunch, so lets go play in the pile for a while!

Show me your playgrounds! How’s everyone’s season so far?!

    I’m going to build a box sieve this weekend so I can get the rocks and trash out of my spot. (My garden is just a strip of dirt in the city, but I’m making it work!)

      More a comment on the gulf between how easy it was to order all that dirt and how many wheelbarrows it translates into

        For sure. Definitely one thing at a time.

        I set mine up to run off of the former lawn sprinklers. And unfortunately one of those valves is cracked in half. And buried. I should probably hire someone to fix it. Of course stupid me won’t. Also probably 50% of the spray/drip heads have been damaged by the last guy I had to clean up the yard. >:( And we have a big back yard. So that’s a lot of drip system to test and fix.

        For now I might just do for the planters what I did with veg plot #1 which is to run a garden hose with a drip system hooked up and run it manually.

        Maybe in four or five years I will finally get the real system installed and automated lol.

      Nothing too out there, but I’m trying some new stuff. Gonna take a swing at the cattle panel squash arch and I dug a hugelkultur bed. Got a great deal on pots at a hardware store, so were gonna try a bunch of flowers
