Spring/Summer 2019 Crops & Layout!

THE LAYOUT

We’re now putting the final touches on our Spring/Summer Garden- just in time too!  Here’s the layout:

A fun way to grow potatoes!  Yam and sweet potato/yam varieties are growing in the trashcan, while sweet purple potatoes grow in each corner of the square box around the young artichoke.

Our garlic in the middle bed to the right is almost ready to harvest!  This is where our basil will go once that’s done.

Giant pumpkins need a lot of room!  3 plants will go here.  The 3rd is still being nursed in the pot.  Once hardy, it will replace the turnip marker.  The far side of this bed is lined with planted sweet corn seeds.  Can’t wait to see how all this is going to go!

With all of our beautiful fruit trees, veggies, flowers, berries, succulents, etc. growing, I love watching the hops!
