John planted many tomatoes

and cucumbers.

And after just five days, the lettuce in the greenhouse is already poking out.

Basil and a Butterfly


Digging up Basil outside.

Replanted basil in the greenhouse.

And a butterfly visited the garden.

So much basil, only a small portion made it into the greenhouse. Basil inside/outside experiments and lots of pesto to come.

organic soil delivery



The truck could only make it half way up the hill to the garden so I had the soil dumped there and I'm slowly transporting it to the beds. The greenhouse is loaded with soil and ready to plant. The seedlings are out of my living room and hardening off for the next week or so and then will be put out in the elements. Last frost date around here is the end of May, although it looks like the warm weather might be a bit early this year.
