Here is my list of vegetables in the garden

My garden is almost all planted.   Need a few more drip lines.   Very few plants, tomato, bell pepper, Strawbarry and few flowers from my Sweet Adeline Director Tammy.  need to move more rocks to the front of the house and make nicer looking walkway.

three plots complete

Been working at least five hours on the garden.  my first three plots measuring 12 x 3 feet are complete.  The big work was cleaning out all the rocks from a gravel lot.  I had to dig several inches down to remove these river rocks.  Dried manure added to enrich our soil.  high desert area sandy clay soil.  Drains well.  vegetables and Strawbarry added to these three plots surrounded ny marygold sat perimeter.   I read these flowers are very good to deter possible pests.   Water irrigation installed but very little pressure so the installation guy will be getting a call as soon as this holiday weekend is over.  will take pictures and type a list of what's in the grown ...

yard sale for garden supplies

Yard Sale raising funds for my veggie garden
Need to think of a watering system (drip or soaker..??) and plants sense I did so crappy at growing seeds - well that sure was a learning experience - must share that too.
