Despite not getting started until afternoon, Kevin and I were able to accomplish a great deal in the garden yesterday. First of all, the new garden path is phenomenal. It is so important to show ourselves and visitors where it is okay to walk. Plus it looks great. We also created the herb garden, which is outlined by stones and has its own path. Having some sort of design rather than just boring rows is something I really wanted for this year. I spend so much time at the garden anyway, it is nice to look at something so appealing!
Aside from the landscaping, we also did well with the planting. We were able to sow seed for:
Beans (Yellow Wax, Roma II) - 3 rows
Pole Beans - 1 row
Onions - 1 row and 1 onion "patch"
Beets - 2 rows
Carrots - 3 rows
We also planted one row each of our greens:
Swiss Chard
Mesclun
Romaine
Buttercruch
Spinach
We left a large space in the middle of the plot for the peppers and eggplant which are still hardening off at the house. We cannot WAIT to get those in the ground. The garden it so beautiful this year!
