Planting Time!!!

We didn't want to miss out on the fall plating season, so we ordered some mushroom compost which was (guess what?) piled in the driveway. There is so much dirt there!!! But we mixed the compost into some of our scraped-off topsoil, cleard off some of the driveway, and filled up our beds. Here's Mike planting our fall veggies: broccoli, cabbage, onions, swiss chard, kale, miner's lettuce, corn salad, beets, carrots, radishes, lettuces, and spinach. In a few weeks, we plan on planting our garlic, elephant garlic, and shallots. You may see near the house that we saved some tomatoes, corn and potatoes from the tiller.


Aside from choosing a few special stone pavers, like the one for the entrance, we haven't made much progress in the past two weeks except the beds. I didn't think it would be this much work!!!
