Here is Day 1 of South Hayworth Gardens Vegetable wing. We're starting with vegetables in oak wine barrels. Bottom filled with alfalfa from the equestrian center (yes I still have about 4/5 of a bale of alfalfa in my backyard.....), layer of Steer Manure, more alfalfa, and about a foot of potting soil. Some nitrogen rich fertilizer mixed in. We'll see how we do.
I've started with 2 barrels. Prepped them last weekend. Been watering and adding potting soil to keep full. Going to prep a third barrel tomorrow.....trying to stagger the veggies a bit.
Shannon, I am impresssed......if all of the plants do well you will have a very full barrel. Keep the posts cominig. Mom
