New Garden Spot

The last few days I've been busy so I haven't had much time for my garden. All I have to do is finish planting some seeds and pull weeds. My big news is that Lloyd has entrusted me with one of his garden plots for the season. Lloyd has been apart of the community garden for 20 years. He has become ill and will take the spring/summer season off and prayerfully return next year.Until then I plan on planting many greens for salads. I plan on taking a few morning this week and all of next week to plan and plant in plot number 7. Hope to have some exciting updates soon.

"Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for you I lift up soul." Psalm 143:8

In the beginning

I've been out in my dirt plot working for about 3 weeks now. When I arrived to the Smiley community garden that first day the weeds had grown in over the winter. I went to my garden daily for a week pulling out each weed by hand. Last week I went in and laid my organic ground amender to soften my soil. Today I took my hubby Glenn to do one last turn of the soil. Once the soil was turned I reconnect my drip system and set the timer. Justin couldn't wait to get started on planting so I allowed him to plant one pink impatience.(Is that how it's spelled?) I planted Cilantro, Parsley and Sweet Basil. From last summer I still have thriving Lemon Thyme, Oregano and perennials. I can't wait to start planting each new day. I hope you will be inspired to try out gardening for yourself if you haven't already.
