preparing the bed

a few people who showed up Saturday, came prepared to get their plot ready.  Here this gentleman is spreading a new layer of compost on his bed.  It is still too cold to plant, night temps are currently running between 3C - 1C.  Sometime next month it will be time.

  1. Do you have a plot? Is it for vegetables or flowers?

    1. Yup, we have a plot and you can grow vegetables and flowers, whatever you wish. We are going to grow both.

  15. Depending on your food crops flowers can help attract pollinators and help with yields.
