thank you, i had thought about that but my garden is so steep i had to have it terraced, i would need a pump i think to set up drip lines....

I have a small raised bed container garden and just had a lady friend weld some garden art for me too. I have a small sampling of garden veggies (carrots, tiny tomatoes, nasturtium’s, rosemary and basil). My latest garden art subs for a fresh water birdbath. It looks a lot like this picture I found on the web.

No garden yet expect one more frost here in the Carolinas. Planting will be tomatoes, cucumbers, green beans, squash and zucchini and who knows what else

It will be an interesting year with moving in the spring. I'm planning a trellis with mini cucumbers I grew last year that were amazing, and some sugar snaps and green beans. Fresh herbs for sure. And probably some container gardening from there. Lettuce and cherry tomatoes. Next year will be bigger and better.

It's getting ready!!

The box is made. Landscaping cloth is on the bottom. A layer of mulch was first. Eight bags of really good veggie garden soil, mixed with some peat moss.(Best Butch did all that) I've started a compost.

Now it's up to me to start these seeds and keep the squirrels away.

The joke is...we better have some good groceries growing!!!
