Anyone else do gardens?
I took last year off but am back at it. Been eating a lot more vegetables and fruits and it's expensive. With all the venison I have, a nice producing garden will have me only needing to buy some fish, bulk rice, beans, tea and coffee. Hoping this $50 investment pays out.
I planted lots of spinach onions and carrots, kale, swiss chard, peas, broccoli and beets. Cedar raised beds. Added manure and lime to the topsoil I already have on hand from my pile.

Still got to get another lemon tree, a lime tree, a couple apple trees, fig tree, strawberry, and all the nice summer veggies. All to come in the next few months.
