Putting beds to bed takes time. We started the work awhile ago, and in last week’s post I described the six materials we layer on each bed.
During this past week’s two, two-hour work parties, we completed all beds in the main garden except those still producing kale, collards, arugula, and radishes.
Plus, Joseph cut back the bambooish stalks that haunt what used to be our lovely pond every year. Once again, I can see across the pond, now a wetland (it still does gather rain from roofs of two houses, which gradually seeps downhill into the garden beds) from my kitchen window to the rest of the garden!
Here’s what the garden looks like this morning.
Notice, no more stalks in foreground pond.
