Gardening 2015: Take Two

It's been a month since my last post.
Gardening 2015: Take One

Although there's really nothing we've been consuming from said garden, a great deal of our time has been in this space.

It started when the snow was just about melted.  Four truckloads of brush I cut to burn. Thankful my husband helped me with this. I tell you, this evening was magical. Beautiful weather, sun setting, all of us together with a fire...

 What a frazzled mess...but just to prove I was there...

 And seedlings...oh those seedlings. My old tomato seeds certainly came.  I transplanted them and now have 22 6-packs or 132 seedlings of just tomatoes. Hoping for a bumper crop!

I also have peppers, basil, parsley, eggplant, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, kale, onions and greens up thus far. I have more cells filled with soil and plan to start a few more things.

 And soil! We've been improving it. Only my kids organize that which we add to the garden. Rabbit droppings, ashes, horse manure, chicken manure. We're getting there! 

I don't remember how many truckloads of manure we added, but it's a start.

 And that compost is all turned and ready to go for next year. I also cleared out a path to the back tree in this picture. It's sort of like the Hundred Acrewood, which is a perfect place for pretending.

Progress, that's where we are at!  This day will be coming oh so soon, and I cannot wait!
