May 21/22 Vegetable Garden

Saturday was vegetable garden day here!  I was determined to get as much as I could done this weekend and I am quite happy with the results.

Henry tilled the whole garden again as I edged the one side that hadn't been done the last time.  After he tilled, he put in the edging down the last side.  Then he took Liam to Grandma's house so that I could plant in peace!

I took my time to plant all my seeds, taking time out to enjoy the beautiful weather we were having.  Potatoes (red and white), carrots, onions, beets, lettuce, swiss chard, parsley, cucumber, zucchini and dill are all planted.  

Hopefully this week I will get a chance to go buy tomato, pepper and broccoli plants and get them planted too, so that the garden will be done!

The garden before we started Saturday morning.
Tilled, edged and ready for planting.

 Seeds, onions and potatoes all ready to be planted!
Potatoes couldn't even wait to be planted to start growing!
Lying on the ground under the tree, taking a little break!

 All planted!!  
Can you see the little row markers?  It really is planted!!

  1. So envious of your huge garden, Nicki! Mine is tiny, so I have to plan on a lot of vertical gardening with trellises and string.
