Things accomplished so far....

Things accomplished so far....

  1. Soil and Mulch bought and delivered I never realized how much dirt can cost.
  2. Seeds started (will never do that again)
  3. Seeds bought for plants whose seeds grow right in the ground (Not pre-started)
  4. Plants I didn't have bought from local greenhouse (Scott's farms).  In fact, next year I will be buying everything from them.  I will have to discuss my frustration from trying to live like a hippee and grow seeds in upstate NY.
  5. Mark came down and tilled the ground with his beastly awesome tractor
  6. Bob salvaged, cut, and built the boxes out of recycled Mink shed lumber
