P-patch update

This an indirect p-patch update. Paul and I are reclaiming our patio at home which means we have some garden boxes that need to go away. Today we moved all the dirt out of our boxes and disassembled said boxes. I have some herbs ready to be transplanted in the new p-patch.

Paul did most of the heavy work today. I just dug the dirt out of the boxes. He disassembled the boxes,moved the dirt, and pressure washed the patio.

Apparently Paul was invisible to our neighbors because according to them I did all the work.

P-Patch Update

Paul, Madeleine and spent a cool morning in our patch garden clearing more weeds. Paul has successfully cleared the "quack" grass from among our raspberry bushes that we inherited from the previous gardener.

Phase two starts next where we start transplanting plants from our garden at home so we can clear out the raised beds and recycle them in the p-patch. Our patio will become a play area and outdoor dining area once all the plants are in their new homes.

Here are picks from today.

P-patch progress report

Paul, Madeleine and I spent a little bit of time down at our community garden this morning. Pulling more weeds, transplanting the onions that seem to be running wild in our little patch of earth, and of course adding to the compost and turning it.

Does anyone know what this is?

P-patch progress report

Had a little time this evening to spend at my p-patch spot tonight. Pulled a wheel barrow full of weeds, turned my compost pile and two more wheelbarrows of wet leaves and last but not least a wheelbarrow full of chips to the pathway between me and my neighbor.

Its P-Patch Time!

The long awaited email finally arrived in my inbox this week!  I've been awarded a 10' x 20' plot in Seattle's Interbay Community garden.  I'm excited to be able to have a sunny garden space.
