**Be sure and scroll down to see my daughter’s garden!! 😀
After 2 months of recovering from broken wrists/elbow and operation to straighten left wrist as a result of a minor motorcycle accident, I can FINALLY get back to doing little things!
Moved the garden to a different area of the back yard I think gets more sun. I had tilled down about 6 inches before the accident. Everything was planted on May 19, 2012 or thereabouts. Used individual raised beds this year instead of one long one. Added newspaper under soil for weed prevention and to till in next year. Have been composting and used some on top about an inch thick to “feed” the plants.
Felt like it was too late a start to go from seed so I bought some seedlings from Lowes this year. Got some Johnson Tomato, Green pepper, Crocked yellow squash, Yellow pepper, Hot peppers for the boy and cucumber. Also bought a 4×7 wire mesh concrete reinforcement to circle and put around tomato so hopefully that will grow full up!
Here’s a link to the 2012 Vegetable Garden photo album and a couple teaser pics below.

My daughter took over the spot from last year and exteded it! I’m so happy she’s taking an interest in this! She planted more than I can remember but I know there’s onion, carrot, cabbage, eggplant and strawberry. Her photos start here https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/d060SEsUItV3LOnHK3qJodMTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=directlink and here’s a pic of the whole thing!
