Tidy garden!
This year we are leaning more towards little backyard livestock. :D Our garden is going to be cut down a bit, but will still provide what we need, hopefully.
I have a great/productive rhubarb garden, this year we plan to make some wine from it. That way even if my garden or livestock doesn't produce, I will care just a little bit less, one glass at a time. :D

May the sun shine on your green, every day.

Nice looking garden already way ahead of us Wes. I plan on putting in our 7 rows of vegetables this year but it is even tougher now that I cannot handle my tiller. My son will till the ground when he has time. We still have time yet because we are still have big frosts around here. I will plant the 1st of June, it will be perfect then for here. My tomatoes are 6" tall and will soon be putting them in the greenhouse.

Edit: I need to separate our rhubarb this year it is letting me know that it is time to do that.

I'm planing on doing a lot of canning this yr., if the juice goes out I'll lose freezer food only, lost a lot last yr with the floods here.

That is one fine looking garden plot you have and looks like it is a real good producer. Can't beat home grown veggies!


Cheers....



This is the first time planting this spot, i've had help from some cows and chickens to make the soil better, we'll see how it turns out, I want to go fishing

Thanks guys

No such thing here, I use the empty packs to mark my rows at first, these things here ate the pictures of the veg off the package :lol: you have to spray liquid 7 and add arsenic to it, the damn bugs are tuff here :lol:

I've tilled mine, but about the time I get ready to plant it, it rains! :x Tilled it Thursday and was getting ready to till it again Friday and be done with it and of course it poured buckets Friday afternoon on through Saturday morning.

It's "supposed" to be dry this week, so hopefully I'll be able to get it in the ground this week.

Good looking garden. :wink:

Got the spuds planted and most of the flowers sets are in too. New raised raspberry bed is in and planted two apple trees today - Honeycrisp and Sweet sixteen - complete with 6' deer exclosures. Rest of garden will go in this week end but will wait on green beans/cukes a week longer. I'm in one 3 here so it does no good to rush those two, just get poor germination.

I don't have room for a garden where I live now but I do miss having one. You've done a real nice job with yours. Enjoy. :)

I planted mine Saturday, zucchini, cukes, tomatoes and jalapenos. Still want to plant okra this week. With the kids gone and just me and the wife, I've scaled back a lot.

My crop has been planted too. Unfortunately it has to be under heavy vegitation to keep the ATF at bay and I have to bury the water lines running into the woods to keep others from knowing what it is that I'm harvesting... :lol: If you believe that one, I'll sell you a bridge in Tibet :mrgreen:
