emuspawn, 1 month ago It’s a busy spring for me! This is year two in a new home, and I’ve started converting larger chunks of boring grass into wildlife gardens and raised beds. So far this year I’ve put together: New herb garden - Thyme, oregeno, borage, chamomile, sage, you name it! Already Planted! https://orbiting.observer/pictrs/image/addd2b17-e4e9-4651-9e47-95e8a9f1c031.jpeg A small cornfield - currently growing crimson clover and lettuce greens. A small squashfield more crimson clover! And getting the eventual companion beans going! A small wildlife garden - sunflowers, more clover, blue hubbard squash, and scarlet runner beans. Food for critters (and also trap crops to keep em off the human food!) https://orbiting.observer/pictrs/image/e6bbefc5-a0c4-4b10-9997-4c6ffb84eea2.jpeg A second raised bed (for square foot gardening) - Currently has little gem lettuce, red fire lettuce, oak fire mustard greens, carrots, turnips and moooooore~ https://orbiting.observer/pictrs/image/3663ece6-49a8-4bf1-9fa4-2640541ecd86.jpeg I also got a small plastic greenhouse this year, so now I have TEN MILLION tomato babies. Hooray! The peppers I’m growing are not quite ready for transplanting yet, but they’ll get there. https://orbiting.observer/pictrs/image/93f59996-d381-430f-9b77-2eaf427aa140.jpeg
