| The front of the garden. I stacked some rocks around the base of the sink. It was always our intention to rock face it but I don't know when we will get around to it. |
 |
| New perennial bed. (Sorrel, horseradish, rhubarb, dill.) |
 |
| Rhubarb was transplanted from elsewhere and I had NO idea how deep the roots were going to be. So they broke off and the rhubarb definitely suffered the transplant. But this spot will be much better for it than where it was and I expect it to bounce back fine by next year. |
 |
| Sorrel, and horseradish, with a border of basil. |
 |
| Green house lettuce, center, two rows of the second attempt at carrots, under burlap for more even moisture. Next to the burlap will be tomatoes, and along the fence is peas. There's not exactly a lot of space for the 'maters, but the carrots and peas should come out by the time the tomatoes need the space. |
 |
| Snow peas |
 |
| Kale mix. It's actually about doubled in size since this photo was taken last week. |
 |
| Strawberries! Last year there weren't this many and the birds got them all. So maybe a net this year? |
 |
| Out of sight, below, is a parsnip patch, then you can see the Daikon radish doing well, then a Nappa Cabbage too small to see the starts, and then Cauliflower, but the bunnies munched most of them after this picture was taken. Ames and I seeded cilantro around there too, and then you can barely make out two rows of leeks. |
 |
| On the outside of the strings are two bands of beets, Chioggia (a concentric red/white beet) and Detroit Red short top. Those were planted in two phases, with a month in between. Down the center of the strings are yellow and red onions, over a hundred altogether. The path is filled with grass right now, and beyond it is the awesome garlic bed. I forget how many are in there but they are growing really well. |
 |
| Asparagus, started last year, is doing fairly well. |
 |
| Here's the herb garden. These have been moving around the yard. We haven't settled on our best spot for them yet, but this will be fine for this year. |
 |
| Our new trailer! Hauled a HUGE load of horse manure for the garden over a month ago. |
 |
| A view from the east end of the garden. Potatoes will be planted here if I ever get around to it. Beans will go in along the inside of the fence. |
 |
| From the west end, the new beds along the outside front of the fence will have scarlet runner beans on this west end, and sugar snap peas along the east side. In front of those climbers I'll seed a special beneficials wildflower mix from fedco. |
