Veggies 7.0

This past week we had some beautiful Spring weather, allowing me to keep the office windows open from morning to night. With the birdsong and warm breeze drifting into the room, I had a hard time keeping my butt in the chair to work.

Usually we have our cool season crops planted at the beginning of the month. Timing and schedules did not allow for that this season. This morning the Management and I worked on a quick sketch for the two 4’x4′ raised beds in the backyard of the Lot. Despite the recommendation of more catnip, this is what I planted today.
