I ment to write this a few weeks ago when, but you know how things go around here.
I would say that year one of the 2571 Fratney St Garden was a success! We got a TON of carrots, two meals worth of potatoes, beans, peas, tomatoes, herbs AND even green peppers in the end. All this in two raised beds and a bunch of containers.
We are already planning for next year by expanding our existing plot and putting in strawberries. This summers compost should be ready to go after the winter and the plan is to add more beds and use less containers, as most things only did moderately well in a confined space. We are also thinking about trying to utilize vertical space to increase our growing potential.
Needless to say, next season is gonna get crazy!
