Plan into Action
My husband watched the kids for a while yesterday so I could get out of the house. It was great. I went to pick up the supplies for my square foot gardens. I found all the lumber and hardware for the actual boxes, and some of the Mel's mix. I'll need to pick up a few more things today, but I'll have my boxes put together soon. The boards are cut and pre-drilled, just a matter of assembling them.
This should be fun!
I'm a little late for strawberries, so I'm only doing 2 squares this year, less room taken up if they fail. Spinach may be late too, but I'll try one square in the spring, and the rest in the fall. No corn. There may even be room for a few more flowers.

I found, using Mel's Mix, that I needed a whole lot more compost than was called for, but then, I made the mistake of not mulching. Probably had I mulched it would have worked nicely. Keep us updated on how it works for you.
