The New Gardening Plan
As I mentioned in my last post gardening has become more difficult for me because of health reasons, however we still want to grow as much of our food as possible and have some to can/preserve for Winter. The solution? Planters.
We have a lovely deck off the front of the house which has become full of planters growing an assortment of zucchini, herbs, turnip, lettuce and greens and winter squash. I had hoped to get more done this year, but we will expand on this next year and have even more out front. The railing is covered with grape vines, so grape harvesting is very easy to do. We also have a large patch of thyme right outside the door. In fact, if it is raining I don’t even have to step out side to pick some!
Along the drive way we have spearmint and chocolate mint growing, so a refreshing cup of tea is close by.
Out back we have another deck that has more zucchini and tomatoes in pots. Around the boules court we put in some raised bed/planters and have strawberries, asparagus, cucumbers, squash and lettuce growing there.
It’s a far cry from the gardens we used to have but I have been pleasantly surprised at how much food we are able to grow in such a small space.
