2015 Garden Journal

[BigVanVader]

Well I am going to try and keep all my 2016 pics/info here, if I ever have time to post them. Here is a start at least. I plan put a grow list up soon but I am still planting some things since the weather has been so mild here so I am focusing on getting more rows/beds built to hold more plants. Growing for the family plus a Farmers market requires quite a bit of work and having a full time job means I am always behind.

This is only my second year at the new place and I have to say a lot has been accomplished, but there is still so much more to do! We plan on getting rabbits sometime this year and I may turn all my rows into raised beds next year, we also plan to extend the GH another 25 feet in length this fall. I have pretty much decided I want to farm full time but it will be a few more years before I can seriously consider it. Here are some pics of what I have been up to.
