At my community garden today planting flowers and veggies in the Children's garden at Lanier Community garden. Focus was to plant flowers that will bring in pollinators to the Children's Garden and nearby food plots. I arrived with plants I started from seed for the event. My offering included Borage, Batchelor Buttons, Zinna's and Cilantro. I also planted extra Tuscan Kale, Crisphead lettuce, and a Yellow Pear tomato plant.
My garden plot was ready for some work today. Tasks included hilling soil up and around the potato plants, thining the beets, and some general house-keeping. The best task was my first harvest of Lettuce and Kale! My Tomato bed survived a couple of very cool mornings and the plants are looking good after a dose of Fish/seaweed fertilizer. I always plant too early - just can't hold back!
