The warmer weather (40's to 50's at night, 50's+ in day) means tomatoes can get in.

So here is a "Sanford and Sons type approach:

Start with bare garden plot, with NE's major s best "crops" - plenty of rocks:

BarePlotLong.5-20

Then make a cheap screen out of junk lumber and 1/2 screen:

CheapScreen

Shovel dirt onto the top to produce screened dirt:

ScreenedDirt.5-21-20

Dig plot holes and place a little fertilizer, a soft cushion of screened dirt,

PlantHoles

Add some water and place plants (from seedlings here) in them, and cover with more screened dirt, and water, and see garden, by the grace of God and to His glory:

The front plants (about 19 out of about 50+) are from Home Depot

Now to pray and see the fruit of this labor, which last years provided much to share and enjoy ourselves as well.

and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities [idols] unto the living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein: (Acts 14:15)
