We were really in a rush to get the garden put in, as we didn’t take possession of the house until May. It turned out to be the best garden we ever planted, bar none!
Putting in the new garden
The new garden tilled.
We had to buy a tractor to mow all that grass, which we then use as compost and fertilizer. Who knew that grass could be so useful? Alexis taking Uncle Guy for a ride.
The garden doing well about halfway through the season.
Eventually, we had to buy a tiller, as the garden kept expanding. This bad-boy is a Troy-Bilt from the early 80s (craigslist). Came with a plow, hiller and tire chains. Gonna make life a LOT easier!
Carol and Guy with a bit of the bounty
Bounty canned!
Our first potato crop ever! 110lbs!
Garden, late summer. We built the shed from scratch, intended as a chicken coop. We decided it’s too nice for chickens and will build them something else in the spring.
