crazyfurriesMaybe it's just spring fever and the nice weather, but I just tilled, fed and turned the soil in a spot I hope to grow a little patch of vegetables this year.
That's right, you heard me. I have the urge to garden, and it may be a misplaced biological need to nurture something, or else save a little at the markets, or have some really cool foods in my lunchbox.
So I remember what I want to plant, and how big my space for growing is...
Here's the list
Plot size: 2 ft by 4 ft, heavy clay even after tilling in leaves and grass, low soil depth (not so good for long carrots).
Plants:
Parisienne Carrots: They say I can do these in a windowbox, so we'll have to see.
Green Beans: srsly, these are way too easy to grow and nice to eat that I can't put them onto the list
Onions...eeh. Possible.
Broccoli: a definite WANT...but again not sure how well they'll do.
Heirloom Tomatoes: I got hooked on the tuscan summer tomato soup we did at the bistro and now really want to grow these for the garden so I can make my own soups and sauces.
