Garden Posts Are In!

Boozhoo! (“Hello” in Ojibwe.)

We busied ourselves until after dark last night to finish securing all the garden posts. Okay, well Edward busied himself and I stood where he told me to to hold the posts while he drilled them in. LOL. And doesn't it look amazing so far!? I am in awe.

The idea big idea, for now, is to put lattice along the back posts—which would serve three purposes; it will look nice, provide a place to climb for a vine, and block the neighbor's junk.

Ed's going to cut the front posts down lower and I'm going to screw down pots that I can set plants in—much like the mobile greenhouse nurseries do on their wooden fences when they set up in grocery store parking lots.

I put in the little brick garden in front of the veggie garden a while ago, but I am not certain what I will plant there—perennials, annuals, herbs, veggies or a combination of any of these. I like digging and moving plants around and adding, so maybe I will only need to decide what I want there THIS YEAR only! I still have some tidying up to do with that setting. I'm excited to continue through the season and watch things grow and come together for a pretty and cozy place for us to spend our time. :)

Coming right along! Great idea to block the view of the neighbor's stuff, LOL. Thanks for posting the photos!
