Very nice! Your children will remember a HOME, not just a HOUSE. Can you use all that wood in a wood-burning stove or fireplace? Our growing area is nowhere near as extensive, but we're beginning to plant more outside now, as I believe our last frost has also passed. One of my projects this weekend will to get the carrot box that was uprooted by an animal replanted and in a fenced area. Sonia is planting potatoes now, and said that a recent chilly night did not harm any of the tomato plants. On more general preparation, I'll be cleaning and filling our little camper's 30-gallon fresh water tank; I'm always a little less nervous when that is full, even though water is fairly easy to find here in East TN.
That is our dream, for our children to have just as fond memories of their childhood home AND garden as we do. We have a wood stove, so we'll be cutting it all up for that. It's great to get some "free" firewood out of it as well. I think I'm going to chance it this weekend and plant our potatoes to and get a bunch of other stuff started. I hope the animals stay out of your carrot box this time. I love getting your comments. It's so much fun to hear about your adventures in the garden here as well.
It is looking so great! And nice to see things greening up ☺️
The medicinal plant you pointed out is “purple dead nettle” in English. Lamium purpureum
ooh, thank you for that.
I'm really enjoying the blooms and greening up as well. We've had so much sunshine lately.
