The garden is coming to life!
Last year we put in a few strawberries, bought at a yard sale. We were thrilled that they provided us with yummy berries from June 'till September! We bought, from a neighbor down the street, another 60 plants for $10.00!
We had to create a new bed to fit them all into the yard.
This is an easterly view of the garden. The fruit tree's are in and pruned. Apple, peach, plum and cherry. The raised beds have asparagus, cucumber, squash varieties and swiss chard. Already peeking out of the dirt are potatoes, broccoli, onions, lettuce, parsley and raspberry and blueberry bushes.
The birds are moving in!
A pair of orioles sang to us.
I couldn't let this house stay at the dump. Some child spent time on this masterpiece and some birds are sure to move in.
This is the wedding hill. We spent months getting grass to grow here, and it did. Satinka and I traveled down together on my wedding day, it was beautiful. Unfortunately the grass won't stay. The rain just keeps washing it away. We are going to try to plant grass over there rocks, in hopes that it will drain the water through and let the soil stay. Stay tuned!
