Bert has wanted to grow corn for the longest time. So a couple of days ago he expanded the Vegetable Garden about 8 feet. The goat wire arbor used to be where the fence was.
We went to Leroy Shroeder's and loaded a yard of mushroom compost onto our trailer.
I stood on the trailer and shoveled all the compost out into the new area.
In the above picture you can see that I have begun to turn over the soil.
All finished turning over the soil. It took about 30 minutes. The bed is 5 x 25. I still have to loosen the compacted soil and mix it together real well.
Here is my corn farmer. We cut down dead cedars and put an edge around the bed. Bert is wearing a bandana because we had an accident and he hit his head as we were trying to lift one of the logs over the fence (my fault). He was knocked to the ground. Blood everywhere. Head injuries bleed a lot! But he powered through and cut down two more trees before he went inside.
