How did this happen?
My hare-brained scheme to garden last year started with one raised bed. I then decided to use a narrow bed against the back deck (what I usually call my side bed) to hold a few more tomato plants. Then I tried to grow some tangerine trees in pots and I’m still not giving up on them. I built two containers this year just for the fricking hell of it. And finally, I thought that it would be fun to grow some onions and swiss chard in pots to see if they will continue growing in winter.
That all comes to 2 in-ground beds, 2 swc and 5 pots. And I’ve only been doing this for 2 years. I’m not so worried about what the yard will look like in 5 years as much as I’m concerned about what kind of person this makes me. Some free loving hippie, that’s what.
