Garden Planting
2008-05-05 06:00:00 The older I get, the more I kick myself about having such a high-maintenance yard and garden. My kids are plenty old enough to do the mowing, but they are still too short. But Princess learned to use the new lightweight electric string trimmer (which is less powerful but more reliable than the old gas trimmer), and that’s a big help. We don’t have a tiller, and the guy with the tractor is never in a hurry to plow. So for early planting, I built a small raised garden with concrete blocks and filled it with soil and compost. I planted carrot and broccoli seeds. Guess what came up? Pumpkins, sunflowers, and tomatoes. Looks like my compost didn’t cook itself thoroughly over the winter! But the plowman came Friday, so I’ll be out in the big garden putting out tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and corn for the next couple of weeks.
