Gardening can be relaxing and fun - and it definitely leads to eating better food that's better for us.
Maybe that's why instead of thinking things through correctly, I planted too many rows for the space I had!
The thing is, I knew better. But in my Springtime enthusiasm, I got carried away.
That nice wide "row" you see on the left... that's a row of carrots and beets hidden by those fat bean plants, which are - on the right hand side - hiding the lettuce and spinach!
And over there on the right... between the peas and the onions, there is barely room for me to crawl betwen the rows to pick weeds.
I took this picture to remind myself. And then we measured the space between the stakes at the end of the rows. It's all going in my file cabinet for reference next spring... so I don't get carried away and do the same thing over again.
The trouble is, I don't know what to leave out. So I think maybe the garden needs to get bigger.
Sounds like a job for my husband, don't you think?
