Garden Update, 3/30/2014

So, I feel obligated to provide an update on our beautiful garden...
That is full of...
NOTHING!!!!
Well, not totally true, full of potential, full of strawberries that need endless dead leaves to be pulled, an aspargus patch and artichoke bed that needs mucho weeding to be done, and a lovely hoop house dealio Alex built to keep the pests out, that, well, needs something to be planted in it!
Yep, not so much on the ball over here with the garden.
But this evening we did get out and get a start on it all.

Alex raked and tilled the bed in the hoop house priming it for lots and lots of brassicas....broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, yummm.

 And I got a small chunk of our strawberry row cleaned out. We already have a few blossoms coming out!

And I got a small chunk of our strawberry row cleaned out. We already have a few blossoms coming out! Berry season is near, got to clean these babies out! There were so many dead shoots and leaves we used scissors to help. The kids loved the idea....for about 7 1/2 minutes and then they were all about helping Dad. Looking forward to lots of garden time in the future :-)
