garden work April 13 2013
I can't help but recall how this time last year we had 80 degree weather and the marathon runners were deferring because it was simply too hot. Needless to say this is not the case this year. The garden was a bit nippier the I had originally hoped. Nonetheless we finished the two 4 x 8 foot boxs and I planted carrots and some Caesar lettuce. I planted peas on the patio today and it looks like the raspberry plant is growing again too. I have the marigolds under lights along with the hot peppers and tomato plant. I also purchased some summer squash seeds today that I'm quite excited about. pictures to come!

Join me as I chronicle my journey of growing fruits and vegetables on my patio and community garden plot in zone 6a.
Another way to reduce heat during summer is organizing your garden, planting and landscaping, and it can also serves as a great bond.
