RE: Last Year’s Garden = This Year’s Changes
So excited to get to gardening this year. We actually started some raised beds at our house here in Chattanooga TN and have some good peas and sprouts showing their greens. The sweet peas already have blooms on them!
We are moving in June back to Oregon, though, so won't get to see this garden to fruition. Hopefully the next folks to live here enjoy it as much as we have.
Will you use straw in your beds or just between the rows? Ruth Stout is famous for her method of gardening that is only straw, no digging, no tilling, just straw and seeds!
Will you get to reap any harvest before you leave? That was really nice of you to start a garden for the next owners!
I think we will try and get the straw as close to plants as we can get. I don't think we will be able to do no-till this year, but hopefully in the future we can do that.
Hopefully some of the greens and peas will make it into the kitchen before we move, but the fruiting veggies will be a nice offering!
Maybe this year's tilled ground will support next year's fertile bed!
