To Do List

Ladies,
Below is a list of various jobs that need to be done in the garden. As you complete each task, be sure to indicate next to it that it is completed so that we are all aware of what has been done and what needs to be done.

TO DO:

• Weed the area behind the asparagus: plant perennials that are currently living under the bench there, mulch with the bagged mulch, and in any remaining space, plant zinnia seeds.
• Weed, turnover, and compost last bed, located between the lettuce bed and the 1st perennial bed. Plant seeds there. Options: carrots, beets, whatever anyone wants to put in.
• Weed bed closest to water: put up stakes in a round structure and plant pole beans around the stakes. Mulch with the marsh hay.
• Mulch cucumber bed with marsh hay
• Pick and eat lettuce and arugula!
  

The Garden

I finally met Ramon (picture of him included in this post), the Puerto Rican man who has lived in the states since 1957 and provided so much advice on gardening.

Emily and I spent a couple of hours at the garden building a structure for the cucumbers that we're hoping to have this summer. Amanda, Maia, Brandi and Emily, I am amazed at the beauty of your gardening skills. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Emily and I did some gardening today!!  Some more veggies in. . . some more perennials.  It is all starting to come together - and we try not to look at our over-achiever neighbors  : )

Good work Amanda on the mulch, hay, and burlap.  Lettuce harvest this week!!!
