Progress!!

Just a quick post of photos to share my progress.

New view of front yard!



Bed on the right is #1.


Here is #1 all ready for final layer of compost/soil. Peas have been planted.



And here is my work in process - the walkways which will surround the raised beds and cover the rest of the lawn in this area!


I have been blessed with some amazing people in my life. Babs has made most of this possible by her generous donation of pavers, compost and soil to this project. Thanks, Babs! My son-in-law, JD has been making several trips to get the materials as well as lending his strength to get them loaded and unloaded, my neighbors, and of course Mia and hubby who have been helping with the whole process. Hubby did an amazing job on the construction - giving up his vacation to get it done.

We even have enough crushed stone from the new patio to fill these walks!



And photos of recent Daffodil/Pulmonaria bouquet from the gardens.

Today's work

Need to get the veggie beds filled and ready for planting.

Okay, so there is no way all three 4 x 22 beds are going to get done in a day. I filled one small corner of bed #1 and planted peas earlier in the week.

My more reasonable goal for the day will be to get half of #1 ready to plant seeds. Had a new gardener visit yesterday, who told me she had just gotten all her seeds planted. She uses a plastic cover at this time of year. LIGHT BULB MOMENT for me!!!

I can put plastic sheets, of which I have several over the top and secure them on the wood!! Hello!!

Found out this week one of my sisters has cancer - it has made my brain all fuzzy, Need to take a deep breath. There that done, now get focused and head out to work!!!!
