Building the Garden

Well, the Turner's have decided to have a garden in the back yard at our new house. It is "Horse Creek Farms" after all. I was off of work for Good Friday, so Jack and I went out to Middle Valley Lawn and Garden and picked up a load of compost. And boy, was it ripe! Jack was not deterred by the smell though, and he was ready to get to work with his red shovel, and so I let him.

He shoveled his little heart out and really worked up a sweat. After a lot of shoveling by the both of us, and some heavy lifting by me the next day, the raised bed garden was finally complete.

We'll let you know how it produces as the summer rolls on. If you're good, you may even get a taste of some farm fresh produce.
