Emmylyn's Vegetable garden

Created on Tuesday, 03 Jun 08

So this is the first veggie garden we have planted in years, probably about 10 to be honest. I wanted to put one in last year and we talked and talked and talked about it but never got around to doing anything more than that… This winter we talked and talked and talked again but we got up off our lazy butts and decided where it would go and how it would be and that we wanted it raised because of the over abundance of rabbits in our neighborhood… hubby went and bought three doors from the bargain bin at menards, cut them in half and waterproofed them and we went and bought plants and seeds and then the doors sat in the back yard because of all the rain we received… I thought the garden would never go in, I had to even replant the plants cause they were getting root bound. Finally last weekend we got it all put together the soil in and then the plants.. the seeds I am not to sure about almost too late for some of them but I will try again in the fall if they don’t work out.
