I know...it's not very energy efficient, but I do enjoy some fresh veggies. So we built ourselves a nice veggie garden using 4"x4"x8' pressure treated wood last weekend. It's 16' L x 4' wide. We broken up the ground and mixed in 10 ft3 (~2") of Miracle Grow garden soil. We'll start planting in a couple weeks (April 18th) for the next new moon. It'll be fun...we'll get tomatoes, cukes, green beans, peas, carrots, spinach, green peppers, and lettuce. Cool stuff!
And today I bought myself a cheap trash can, drilled some holes in it to create our compost bin. Kudos to my boy, Napo, who gave me the idea. Tomorrow we'll add in some sticks, newspapers, grass, and leaves to get things 'posting. Good times...
