A journal of my home vegetable garden. Skippy thinks it's his garden, but I've been gardening here for 20 years. We're located near Boston (USDA zone 6). I have a big community garden plot and a small plot in my yard. I try to grow all of my family's vegetables using sustainable organic methods.

this weekend's tasks

Not much garden work left for this weekend.

One last bed to clear out.
Print and post fall/winter information notice on bulletin board at community gardens.
Garlic: Locate new bed, transplant volunteers, figure out how many saved bulbs to plant and plant them. My son wants to help - he wants to earn $$ for some project of his. I love to have his help.

I meant to plant garlic a couple weeks ago, but didn't get it gone. The garlic planting time is pretty flexible. I'm looking forward to this!

I just planted garlic. I can't wait until spring to see what develops.

you're such a hard working girl. . I like that because you enjoyed the things that you have but don't forget to rest. Me has a garden too, healthy tomatoes.

I just planted my garlic this past week and for the first time I actually measured the spacing between the bulbs/rows. Is it spring yet?

I got 40 cloves of garlic planted today! Actually my son planted it. Think I need more, but need to go back and see how many I planted last year to figure out how much more to plant now.

I'm very happy to be planting cloves I grew. Free!
