Fall Garden

Started on my fall garden several weeks ago. Vanessa & I attended a gardening workshop at our local library put on by Master Gardeners from our area and I learned quite a few things. First of all, I needed to amend my soil. So I got in with my shovel, pitchfork and hoe and worked in some perlite (to hold moisture) and compost to add nutrients (among other benefits). This was the first batch of compost out of our new bin and I was pleasantly surprised how it turned out. For now I have two beds all worked up so I planted gourds, yard-long beans, peas, carrots, spinach, lettuce, red onions, and yellow onions. I still need to work up the third bed and plant at least some broccoli & cauliflower.. not sure what else.
