Finally... a day of sun and warmth! We've had a very wet spring here in northern Wyoming and flooding in southern Montana!
Southern Montana |
On Saturday between rain drops my son shoveled out about 1 yard of beautiful rich, dark, compost from my pickup AND filled up my garden beds for me!
Big Blue loaded up with 2 yards of rain soaked compost. |
Then today he shovel the leftover, about a yard's worth, onto a tarp for future use. What a great kid!
Today, in the bright sunshine, I planted... and planted... and planted!
32 Amish Paste
8 Jet Star
8 Early Girl
8 Brandy Wine
8 Eggplant
32 Peppers (assorted but mostly hot)
4 Broccoli
My garden... looks like a garden now! Sorry, I'm too pooped to take photos... tomorrow!
I also have spinach and lettuce growing!
My Muscovy Ducklings spent a few hours outside rooting and basking in the sunshine... oh ya... and eating bugs! They loved it! They're 9 days old now and getting tail feathers!
8 days old |
What a cutie! |
How wonderful that your son helped fill your beds with compost! Wow! You certainly have a lot of tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant in your garden. You should have a great harvest.
ReplyDeleteThe ducklings seem to be settling in quite well AND earning their keep :)
Man, I can't wait to see those ducks in action later. You'll have to video the carnage for me. :)
ReplyDeletewith pleasure, EG! I'm surprised that you don't have some chickens!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice son. And that is a lot of tomatoes.
ReplyDeleteNow THAT'S a Square Foot Garden!!
