This weekend we got the bed on the left side (looking out) of the entrance gate planted. All veggies, some raised from seed, some purchased from what used to be Salt Marsh Nursery in Saugus (and which has now re-opened under new ownership as Little Brook Garden Center). BTW, regarding Little Brook Garden Center, if you’ve never been there, it’s a great place to get your vegetable and flower seedlings, with better prices and greater variety than you’ll get at Home Depot or (shudder) Walmart. Plus you’ll be supporting a local business and It’s just five minutes up the road from Tim Horgan’s place.
Friday evening was interesting, prepping the bed’s soil while upstairs in the club and in the parking lot a sweet sixteen party was going on. (Note to self: when Sarah turns 16, IF her mother and I allow her to have a party, she will go dressed as a normal kid, not as an aspiring courtesan.) On Saturday afternoon I did the actual planting and it was to have club members on their way to or from their cars stop by to ask about the garden and share some of their own experiences and ideas.
Here’s a map of what was planted. Next weekend (hopefully) we’ll get the bed on the right side of the gate planted. After that happens everything is just about done and maybe I can finally get my boat in the water and do some fishing (which just might get Marco off my back). 🙂
