However, it warmed up A LOT (or maybe it was just me who warmed up) once I started shoveling dirt from the truck bed to the wheelbarrow. Funny how that works, right?
Here's our finished vegetable garden. It was a lot of work, but I'm really looking forward to the extra growing space next year. There are six new raised garden beds, each 4 ft x 12 ft x 10 in. The two beds on the left have have some lettuce, spinach, and Halloween-planted garlic, so we covered them up with straw for the winter. We also covered all paths with cardboard (until we ran out) and straw.
Now I just need it to be next spring already so I can start planting the new garden!
The raised beds look awesome! I need to find a place that sells straw here. It's really hard to find.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait til Spring to see these new beds filled with wonderful veggie plants.
ReplyDeleteHave you already started making your grids of what will grow where?
I have so enjoyed you sharing your efforts, trials and rewards in your garden. I am looking forward to the spring to see what you have planned. Thank you for taking the time to include us.
ReplyDeleteOh, all that hard work will be so rewarding next year!! The beds look great!! Are you planning what your are going to plant yet???
ReplyDeleteWow! That looks AMAZING! Very nice job! Can't wait to see it fill up!
ReplyDeletemeemsnyc - thank you! I hope you can find straw in your area. I was lucky to discover that our dirt place sells bales of straw, too.

debiclegg - me neither! I've started planning the grids, but there have already been a few changes and I suspect that there will be many more all winter long. :)

Good work; not go get yourself a beer.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, 28 degrees F? That's summer!
That must have been a lot of work! I always feel so good after some shoveling, it is a great exercise.
ReplyDeleteBeds and paths look very professional. It will be a pure joy to start gardening in spring.
It looks GREAT! I think it shows the committment you both have given to it. I envision lots of great vegetables growing there for sure!
ReplyDeleteVery nice job! You should be proud of it.
Well, I know you're thrilled to have the beds filled, because it was alot of work! It's gonna be awesome next spring...
ReplyDeleteThat is a LOT of new space! You are going to have a lot of stuff next year huh? They look very nice and neat!
ReplyDeleteTIG - As an ex-Californian, I'm fully aware of my weather-wimp status when it comes to truly cold winter weather!
