More “churn dash” and a gardener

The bottom row is put together, so I just need to put all the other red sashing and black cornerstones on and then make a border or two.

Meanwhile on the farm, my sons convinced me to hire someone to help get the garden in and the hoop house ready to plant.   I feel so behind this year.   We brought 14 bales of peat moss and 21 bags of all purpose sand home today in 4 trips to Lowes.   Our boxes were getting depleted from weeding and produce.   Seems whatever you take out, takes a bit of dirt with it and after a few crops, one needs to replenish the beds.    We still need to do something to lighten up the soil on our hillside beds – haven’t thought that one through yet.  There will be a good number of potatoes out there plus garlic and squash and cruciferous plants, which need room.   And I still have not started my plants.   That must happen this week!
