New Garden in Progress

Another project we've worked on the past week is turning a long strip (8'x70') along one side of the property into what will eventually be a perennial bed. The area reclaimed used to have a couple mulch piles and yard trimmings, but from them, some things had taken root and were growing, so we just kind of built this bed to accomodate those plants. Since then, Lynne has moved/divided/planted several plants in it, and it's off to a good start towards next Spring and Summer. It looks for now like our timing might be good, too; the weather forecast is calling for our first accumulating rain in over 40 days early next week. There's been a lot of other things going on as well, and future blogs will tell about them, as life continues Forward in the Heartland.

Thanks for stopping by, and leaving a note telling us you were 'Here in the Heartland'.
