Garden update: We have soil!

This past week our down stairs neighbors must have though we had become some weird hoarder people with all the random stuff that was accumulating in our back yard: pots, wood, cardboard, a tarp. But it all came together on Saturday!

We got our soil/compost on Thursday, which we had to move quickly so we could park behind our house again. We built another raised bed and with the help of a friend we were able to get woodchip to mulch around our two bed. I think if we stay in Milwaukee I would like to add atleast one more bed.

On Saturday we also planted our peas, beans and carrots. Today I think I am going to start transplanting our peppers and onions. The bed needs more soil still, but we have plenty of containers that would work for now.
