Today we also went to Cedar City to plant the garden beds we previously filled with compost and top soil a week ago. This project was one of the volunteer hours requirements to become certified as Master Gardener's, today we planted the donated vegetable and herb starts from the Lady Bug nursery. We had a great time working together and enjoying the warm day, including the stiff breeze that was blowing. As you can see the Care and Share Shelter will be able to feed many hungry souls with the bounty of the harvest. Starting very soon the lettuce and other greens will be on the table as salad fare.
Here my husband Bryce is planting onion sets, he was doing such a great job I didn't want to disturb him. Neat little plants all in a row, only hope all grows well without our supervision. This bed has 2 rows of peas, the onions 4 rows, 6 yellow summer squash, 4 zuchini, and 6 celery plants on this end. Now that is a lot of vegetables in a 4' X 8' bed, but with proper watering and mulching everything should do fine.
Did I mention that I love to GARDEN!!!!!
