My Organic Garden 2010 (Dial up warning)

Edited on Tue May-11-10 07:01 AM by ixion
I grew up on a farm, and every year we had a garden. I always helped to plant/tend/harvest, but since I've grown older (I'm in my 40's now) I have never once cultivated my own garden. Over the last couple years, I've been honing the basic skills needed to get things done on your own: woodworking, gardening, etc. Last year I had my garden on a piece of property I own about two hours away. It made tending next to impossible. This year, I put the garden in my back yard, and found that I really enjoy spending time out in the garden.

It's good for the soul. :)

So here are a couple pics I wanted to share.





I'm growing Peas, Corn, Onions (Red and Bunching), Chives, Squash, Tomatoes, Garlic, Chili and Yellow Bell Peppers and both Sweet and Spicy Basil in a 37% Peat Moss, 37% compost, 25% Vermiculite, 1% Black Soil mix.
