We Need More Garden! I heard noise out by the garden and it turned out to be John making MORE garden! He's outgrown the 70 X 45 foot area that's chock full of veggies so he extended it outside the walls. Into moose territory!
Now we have these extra rows planted with broccoli and covered with remay.
Then he mowed the yard just so he would have clipping to dump on the rows. This will hold in the moisture and help stamp down the weed growth. I thinned out the radishes yesterday and he almost cried to see any little plants die. He considered rescuing them with their little exposed roots and transplanting them somewhere. Will the new rows survive the moose? Will we have enough veggies for our youngest to turn down at dinnertime well into the winter months? Will we be able to find someone to water all of this when we go camping? Updates to follow....
