The Patch is Back!


It was a long grey winter and I was sick of posting pictures of clover and lettuce and chard! Here's what the Patch looks like now that my winter cover crop (crimson clover) has been turned into the soil to decay (Martha calls this green fertilizer).

You'll notice a small clump of strawberries (upper right quadrant of the photo). More about these in the next post.

ACTION ITEMS:

I resolve to go to my P-Patch twice a week.

Nathan Hale High School Horticultural Sale, first weekend in May. This is where I'll buy my organic starts. Sorry Dad, I need to minimize my work on this end. Some seeds (herbs, lettuce) but mostly starts.

Speaking of seeds, get those in the ground next weekend.
