Before And After

Yesterday Mark had his first home-grown salad of the year; it is amazing what you can do in the basement with grow lights!

Here are some before and after pictures of what is going on in our garden right now. 


Last year the herb beds were in the back yard.


This year we have moved them around front.  Better access for me to run out and clip what I need for a meal!


Last year we used these are chicken tractors.


This year we covered them with green house grade plastic....


...and we are wintering some of the hardier plants in our home made green house.


This is a shot of the back yard earlier this winter


I now have a new, bigger, sturdier clothesline and the yard is ready for planting.


We have taken a break the past couple of weeks for a nasty bout with the flu.  Everyone is much better, tomato seeds have become plants and have been transplanted into bigger pots, and after the expected cold, wintry weather later this week we will be ready to get out and do more.
