A redneck moves from the trailerhood to the suburbs for a little patch of dirt to call home and set up an as much as possible self sufficient lifestyle. Some things will go better than planned, others worse. Hopefully, most will at best be somewhere in between.

Planting Gardens
Well, I'm nigh ready to seed the last of my eight 6' x 6' raised bed gardens. We're said to be in for today and the next 3 -5 days to be rainy. Today lived up to expectations. I bought 6 bags of compost/manure mix, 6 of topsoil and 2 of potting soil this morning and got the c&m mix dumped. Tomorrow I hope to plant seeds and add the topsoil.
Some of the older beds have gone to seed already, mostly assorted greens so I'll let the seeds dry then fetch them in for next season. For me, it's not so much as the reaping of the harvest as much as it is getting my fingers and toes in the dirt.
