This ole gal worked her rear off today getting the inground garden plot ready for planting. You guys might get a kick out of this.... Inground plot that has been tilled and resting for a bit. Original dirt... Hubby bringing the Kubota with the tiller on it to till the already resting plot. Equipment used...ya think we had enough!!!!?? Top soil/mulch added and tilled in with panels laid out to erect for tomato plants. Yours truly...pounding T posts with a homemade post driver we found in our old barn...that bastid about got this ole gal...I set 11 posts with that bad boy!!! Just gona say here...I've lost 16 pounds recently and my over alls just bag and I look like two ton Tessy but hey, it is what it is..... So very thankful that my husband, who is recently out of major surgery, was with me every step of the way today!!! I love that man!! He could not lift but he drove tractors and held fencing, doing whatever he could including giving me all the support needed!!!!! continued....

I am through planting now except for some container herbs. I've enjoyed sharing my gardens with you all and thank you for all the nice comments. Crops either growing or planted: butter crunch lettuce, cabbage, hot pepper - two varieties, sweet pepper - three varieties, bell pepper - two varieties, four types of onions, cantaloupe, basil, parsley, rosemary, garlic, chives, sumer savory, thyme, broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, bush green beans, pole beans, cucumbers, 23 tomato plants - 11 different varieties and Georgia Rattlesnake watermelons. Only thing I still have to get planted is dill and I am putting that in containers this year but just a bit later. Have not found any good plants and am getting seed to start dill.

What’s the purpose or the raised beds and is any corn up? What's the purpose? Well, my friend, the main purpose is I am older and have a BAD back, so it is much easier for me to garden, which gives me great pleasure. In addition, I control the soil, feed it, add to it and keep it well balanced for growing purposes. Also, it makes keeping the garden free of weeds MUCH easier. Gardening is one of my passions and just because I am getting older and it is harder to bend, tug and pull weeds does not mean I am willing to give up something that gives me such enjoyment. Lastly, when planting in the beds, I generally get to plant a bit earlier because they are warmer. The beds produce tons of food that we eat, share with our children and neighbors. It gives me joy to be able to share with others. As to corn, I have none coming up because I did not plant any but it is coming up around us. A couple of shots of things growing in my beds... cauliflower heading up.. cabbage heading up with pole beans coming up in the back. tomato blooms looking good..
