Winter Garden

I planted some seeds on Sunday, a week after weeding, digging up and loosening the soil in my raised beds, and adding a bit of compost, peat mosss and fertilizer.

I planted two rows each of broad beans, kale, Swiss chard, daikon radish and leeks. Leaving the fence up of course so the deer don't eat it all. I will grow pac choi in a box on the sundeck.

Sunday happened to be a full moon as well, just a coincidence but it can't hurt.

The apple tree is very heavily weighed down with apples, the pear tree had a good crop too but the fruit is mostly small. Soon I will start harvesting the apples, hell I still have some frozen from last fall that I haven't eaten. Who wants some?

I have garden envy. I'd love to have apples in abundance.

Sorry I can't help you!
Maybe I should try drying apples this year as well...
