But for the garden we had a great first year. Good eats with a whole bunch of lessons learned along the way:
- Tossing the peat pellet things for seed starting in favor of homegrown compost trays
- Getting spinach in the ground (and lots of it) much earlier
- Definitely planting bush beans to get an early crop of green beans (the pole beans were prolific!)
- More roma tomatoes for sauces (and better tomato trellising all around)
- Perhaps building trellises for the summer and fall squashes
- More corn!
- Looser soil for better carrot development
So while it's getting cold outside, we'll be seeing how long those compost piles stay warm and looking forward to the seeing the seed catalogs arrive in the mail. In the meantime, we'll try to keep some posts going as we find things of interest to share. Until then, here are some more photos from the season that Sara took:
