And blueberries are one of my favorite berries. Big, small, they are all good.

There’s some benefit to the clay in that our lawn is rarely crispy, but she’s slow to warm and a bit heavy.

And yes, this is by far the best way to start a new bed — or renovate an existing bed. I am a complete and total convert.

But it is the right time for us to have an adventure, when Dan’s mom is available to look after the house and kitties, and while we both still have the time in the summer. Who knows how long we can hang on to that!

It does take advance planning, but the results are so worth it, look at that beautiful soil!

What an amazing (to me) amount of space you have. The flower bed sounds beautiful. Too bad it’s destined for one season only. But how can you leave your garden for the whole summer?
