Community Gardening
It’s finally warm in Wisconsin! After a chilly spring (we had frost advisories last week), it was over 70 degrees today and Annie and I took advantage. We had prepped our beds in our community garden plot a couple of weeks ago, so it was just a matter of planting today.
The community garden we’re in is pretty great. They’re asking plot-renters to try and use no-till Lasagna Gardening, and they provided some organic material for the layers. We decided to give it a try. I’ll be interested to see how it works compared to the veggies we planted in our yard using traditional techniques.
I’m extremely excited by the scale of this garden. Last summer we were in a small fourplex in Portland, OR, so we only had room for some containers on our front porch. For whatever reason, we never got a community garden plot. This year, if all goes well, we’ll have veggies out of our ears!
Here’s a diagram of what we planted and where:
