The garden is in! Well, except the last two rows, because I have to pick up asparagus roots & rhubarb roots from the garden centre (curbside) tomorrow, and I totally ran out of steam before putting in a second row of carrots and celery. But 10 rows planted, and it's 30C out. #HOT
Scarlet runner beans, Blue Lake beans, Sugar Daddy peas, Green Arrow peas, eggplants, cucumbers, spaghetti squash, zucchini, carrots, beets, turnips, leeks, fennel, lima beans, radishes, scallions, mixed lettuces. Phew! #gardeninglife
Hoses are trickling water onto the hot soil and seeds. Going to give them a good soak this evening, during the hockey game, then switch the water over to our baby trees so they (with any luck!) recover overnight from this unseasonal heat.
Putting the garden in is a mix of extreme zen and grounding to the basics of life, and a mad dash against obstacles like weather, ants, time, and the brown recluse spider living in the garden. #Gardeninglife
