Saturday, my husband and I worked on getting our soil ready. We borrowed a tiller and went to work!
 |
| The "North Garden" which is shaded most of the day. It will be a perfect spot for the celery! |
 |
| There is a large rose bush by the South Garden that needs to be pruned very badly. Hopefully, we will have some beautiful roses by the front door this summer! |
 |
| The "South Garden." This spot gets a lot of sun all day. |
 |
| Finished tilling! |
 |
| This will be the "East Garden." It is a huge area where we will plant vegetables and herbs that can tolerate a little shade. |
 |
| My gorgeous husband working hard! :-) |
After my husband tilled, I raked out the soil. This was not as hard as tilling, but I did work up a bit of a sweat! Here are our prepared areas:
We were also given a very nice composter. This neat contraption has a crank so that the barrel can be turned a few times every day. I will try to add a little water to the mix every week as well. It will make the compost process more fun and easy.
