That is great. I have some of my garden up and growing. I planted a bunch of carrots yesterday, am pulling radishes and soon some onions. Isn’t gardening fun?

I’m in the process of beginning a community garden. We have the land cleared, now it needs to be root plowed and hills and paths made for the volunteers to plant their seeds. Eventually I’d like to see raised gardens, of all shapes and sizes made with various materials. We live on a mound of black clay, so when the weather is dry, the ground is like concrete, and I won’t mention when it’s wet.

Last year our Master Garden group picked 660 pounds of green beans in one week. County agent got involved showing young people how to prepare for freezing.

This year our church is going to plant a small garden to share with those who don’t have one.
