The gardens


Here is the second garden that Darcy built me (for every year that my garden puts food on our table, he's supposed to make me another box).  
Although I should have 3 by now, I'll take what I can get!

Darcy even filled it up with the compost from last year and got me special veggie dirt!
Now I have corn, tomatoes, pumpkin, cucumbers, radishes, peppers, radishes, carrots in the first box and blueberry shrubs and potatoes in the second box!

This is the other side of the garden that I worked my butt of at today!  I know it's hard to tell (if you click on the picture it will make it bigger to see), but I pulled 5 big wheelbarrows full of weeds that I needed a shovel to get out (darn those were big weeds!)
I finished the right side almost all the way up to the pond, and then planted more blueberry shrubs, then I fixed the pond (we had a leak in the rockery).  Now all I have to do is find the time to weed the other side and I'm good to go for BBQ season!
