Garden Blogging:

In the cold frames --
(like miniature greenhouses)
I've got lettuce and sunflowers coming up.
Beets, too.


And another summer experiment:
-- a mound built of logs and sticks
overlaid with mulch
(from 5 years worth of firewood) --


And then overlaid again
with undercooked compost from the heap
and a couple of inches of dirt.

I'm a gonna plant some beans 
and nasturtiums on it.
Maybe a squash too.

Can you spot the asparagus spears
poking out below?
