Trevor, Mackey, and I decided to rent a community garden plot. The plot is 30X40 and located on the hill in Duluth. There is only one hill in Duluth. For $25.00 your plot is tilled and you receive a bag of fertilizer. We have yet to receive the fertilizer but were please to learn that we wouldn't have to till it ourselves. The second photo is our "
Socialist Gothic" portrait. In addition to our $25.00 we must complete at least two hours of community service. Everybody wins in the end. We planted tomatoes, peppers, beans, cucumbers, squash, and various melons. We have a bit of space left where we plan on planting broccoli and cabbage. Our plan is to can salsa, spaghetti sauce, diced tomatoes, and green beans. The squash will be kept in the root cellar. Pickles will be made as soon as the cucumbers are ready and my Grandma Joann shares her sun pickle recipe. The melons will be gone right away. I might even dig in at the garden site. My summer diet consists of melons, strawberries, cucumbers, gazpacho, and ice cream. A great deal of food is also planted in our little yard. I will post photos of some of our creative space saving ideas. Until then, happy gardening.
