Spring has sprung!





I took advantage of the weather (low 60's) today to begin getting ready for summer. This year Jane and I want to take our garden to the next level. I began to build two frames for some raised beds. We plan to convert our garden area to make better use of the space we have and grow as many vegetables as we can this summer. We can already taste the salads and tomato pies in our future. Plus it was just nice to get outside and smell the sawdust and enjoy the sunshine!

  3. I was just listening to Michael Pollan (author of The Omnivore's Dilemma) on NPR who is trying to convince the Obamas to plant a vegetable garden on the White House lawn as an example for all Americans--better nutrition and $$$ savings. You're on the cutting edge! Just watch out for those horrible ugly horned caterpillars, or whatever they are called, that used to devour the few tomatoes that could survive our shady back yard. Keep posting--I'd love to see pics of the garden when you get it planted.
