Welcome to my garden

Category: my greenhouse | Posted: Sun May 18, 2008 3:05 pm

We just purchased a used garden tractor/tiller. Boy does it run great. The young man on the tractor is my husband claude.

I know this garden doesn't look like much of anything right now. But the first step is to tiller the garden first. This first one is where we had (last year) toms., beans, lettuce growing.

This part is where we had cucumbers last year.

This is one of our back gardens. We had toms. & zucchini growing here last year.

And lastly we have tilled up a new area. last year we used it for a burning pile and basically NOTHING but wasted land space. So we decided to til it up this year and use it for gardening. Though we're not sure whats going in it yet. But options are open. Down at the end is our 2nd year of rhubard patch already going to seed.

We have thought about putting in corn but the deer also come from in back of the rhubarb and would get into the corn. Another option is that we may have to fence around it, atleast if we want corn. Any way we have many options to use. Thanks for walking around my gardens with me.

Oh I want a shot at using that tractor/tiller Claude!!! The damage I could do with it though would be unbelievable. LOL

You certainly have lots of space now to plant up Petunia. I would really love to see progress reports of your garden.
